Today were going to be looking at different language learning styles. You may be surprised to find that there are different ways of going about learning languages,

4、none of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learner “types” the communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native speakers. A

5、t home, they like to learn by watching TV and videos. They like to learn new words by hearing them. In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to lean by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes

6、at home and school. Now, authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down in their notebook, and they like to have a textbook. They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we have analytical learners. These learne

7、rs like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books, and they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mistakes. Now, of course, its unusual for a person to be exclusively one “type” rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What

8、type of learner do you think you are?

9、 yearsWell, in Britain, from the ages of five to about eleven you start off at a primary school, and then from eleven to sixteen you go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school and at sixteen you take GCSE examinations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work.

10、Others stay on at school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of eighteen, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education at a college or university, and thats usually for three years.Well, it depends on what state youre in but most kids

11、in the United States start school at about six when they go to elementary school and that goes from the first grade up to the sixth grade. Some kids go to a kindergarten the year before that. Then they go on to junior high school, thats about eleven, and thats the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. A

12、nd then they go on to senior high school around age fourteen starting in the tenth grade and finishing in the twelfth grade usually. Some students will leave school at sixteen and theyll start work, but most of them stay on to graduate from high school at age eighteen. In the first year at high scho

13、ol or college students are called “freshmen”, in the second theyre called “sophomores”, in the third year we call them “juniors” and in the fourth year theyre called “seniors”. Now a lot of high school graduates then go to college or university and they do a four-year first degree course. Some of th

14、em might go to junior college which is a two-year course. Well, in Australia, well most states anyway, children start their primary education at five after perhaps a brief time in kindergarten. They will stay at primary school until theyre about eleven, then theyll either stay there or go to an inte

15、rmediate school for a couple of years. Then they start high school usually twelve or thirteen, which you start in the third form. Now, after three years at high school you sit a general exam, some states call it School Certificate and that is a sort of general qualification and that if a sort of gen

16、eral qualification. After that you can leave school at sixteen or you can go on and sit your University Entrance Examination, which then gives you entre into a university or its another useful qualification, and from then on you go to various sorts of higher education.Education in Canada is a provin

17、cial responsibility, but schools are administered by local school boards.Kindergarten is for children who are four or five years old. Children begin formal full-day schooling in Grade 1, when they are about six years old. They must stay in school at least until they are sixteen. However, most studen

18、ts continue to finish high school. Some go to college or university. Each year of schooling represents one grade. (The school year extends from the beginning of September to the end of June.) Elementary school includes kindergarten to about Grade 8. Secondary school (or high school) may start in Gra

19、de 8, 9, or 10 and it usually continues until Grade 12.In Canada, students may go to university or to a community college. If they want to learn skills for specific job, they attend college for one or four years to get a diploma or certificate. For example, lab technicians, child-care workers, and h

20、otel managers go to college. Universities offer degree programs as well as training professions, such as law, medicine, and teaching.Universities offer three main levels of degrees. Students earn a bachelors degree after three or four years of study. A masters degree can take another year or two. A

21、doctorate may take a further three to seven years to complete. B1 Idioms / vocabulary / French / spelling / pronunciationB2 1. F 2. T 3. FI Interviewer P ProfessorI: And now we have an interview with Professor J. T. Lingo, Professor of Linguistics at Chimo University, who is here to talk to us about

22、 the growing business of teaching English. Good morning, professor Lingo.P: Good morning.I: I understand that teaching English is becoming “big business” all around the world.P: It seems that language schools are springing up everywhere. I: Why is that?P: With the move toward a global economy, Engli

23、sh has become the most widely used language in the world. It is the language of business, aviation, science and international affairs and people find that they must learn English to compete in those fields. I: And do people find English an easy language to learn?P: Well, every language has something

24、 about it that other people find difficult to learn. English is such a hodgepodge of different languages its essentially Germanic but a lot of its vocabulary comes from French, and technical words stem from Latin and Greek. This feature makes English fairly adaptable which is a good thing for a worl

25、d language but it causes irregularity in spelling and pronunciation. I: English spelling baffles me, too.P: English also has the largest vocabulary. Often there are words for the same thing, one is Anglo-Saxon and one from the French like “buy” which is Anglo-Saxon and “purchase” which is from the F

26、rench. The French word often has more prestige. I: Anglo-Saxon? P: Thats the word for Old English. The Norman Conquest in 1066 brought the French language to Britain and helped English evolve into the English it is today.I: Is there anything else particularly difficult about English?P: Well, the idi

27、oms in informal English pose a problem for some students. I: Informal English?P: As with any language, there are different varieties: slang, colloquial. Formal, written, as well as the different dialects British, American and Canadian English. I: And how is Canadian English different from American a

28、nd British? P: Canadian English is closer to American in pronunciation and idiom. Some of our words and our spellings do reflect British usage, however. We wouldnt use the British term “lorry” for truck, but we have kept the “o-u-r” spellings in words such as “honour” and “colour”.I: This has been v

Age / Foreign student population II. 15 hrs (+2 or 3 for lab) / Discussion group: 15-20 / much smaller / informal, friendly / 2-3 hrs: 1 hrToday Id like to give you some idea about how l

30、ife at an American university or college might be different from the way it is in your country. To be sure, the student body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group of people. First of all, you will find students of all ages. Although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will

31、 see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U.S. campus come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, some of them work full-time. Many students live in dormitories on campus, some have their own apartme

32、nts usually with other students, and others live at home. Some colleges and universities have a very diverse student population with many racial and ethnic minorities. Some schools have a fairly large foreign student population. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U.S. college or university campus. Now that you have some general idea of differences in the student population, Id like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is and then discuss with you what a typical class might be like. Lets begin
