There has been a lot of research in recent years into what makes a good language learner. Here is a brief summary of the latest theories: Good language learners think about how they are learning. They try to find out what works for them and what doesn't. If; they don't understand the purpose of a particular exercise, they ask their teacher for a clear explanation.

Good language learners are willing to experiment and take risks. For

example, they will out different ways of learning vocabulary until they find the way that suits them best. They are also not afraid of making mistakes because they know that these will help them.

Good language learners are realistic. They know that it will take time and effort to become proficient in English, and that there will be periods when they don't seem to be making much progress.

Good language learners are independent. They do not expect to learn English just by sitting in the classroom, and do not rely on the teachers to direct their learning.

Good language learners are organized and proactive. They use their time to learn English sensibly, and are always looking for opportunities to develop their language both inside and outside the classroom.

Some students are extroverts in communicating their thoughts and do not care about making many mistakes in doing so. Good language learners, on the other hand, are concerned with both fluency in communication and accuracy of language usage

PART B

Learning English in America ...... an Interview

Interviewer:Hello, Miss Hsiao! From your CV we know that your Chinese name is Wenchin Hsiao, and that you have an interesting English nickname, "Stella". Why did you pick "Stella" as your nickname?

Wenchin Itsiao: I wanted to find a unique name, and "Stella" sounds different. I picked it from a dictionary. "Stella" means star. Interviewer: Why did you choose to study journalism in the US? Wenchin Itsiao: I have at least two reasons. One is, the States is an English speaking country. I've studied English for about 10 years, so there will be no great language barrier to communication if I choose to study in America. The second reason is, journalism in the States is more advanced and influential than in any other countries. And there're quite a few world famous universities which offer best courses in journalism. Also, I have a lot of friends and relatives here, so I can be taken care of by them. Wenchin Itsiao: Yes, I started in junior high school . I also learned Japanese when I was at university. Japan occupied Taiwan of China for

15 years, so a lot of people in Taiwan could speak Japanese. And also, for

a Chinese, learning Japanese is easier because Japanese has borrowed a lot of words and characters from Chinese. Learning Japanese is easier than learning English. But English is international language, so most of us learn it when we are young.

Interviewer: Do you find it more difficult to speak English or to write it? Wenchin Hsiao: Oh, I have difficulty in writing and speaking, but not in reading and listening. It seems in Taiwan we have more of an opportunity for reading and listening. But I have to improve my English writing and speaking skills in America.

Interviewer Has there ever been an occasion when someone ridiculed your English?

Wenchin Hsiao: No, but I'm a sensitive person. If I say something and they can't understand me, they'll say, "I'm sorry I can't understand you." If they say that, then I feel frustrated or embarrassed. I have been learning English for 10 years and still can't express myself very clearly.

PART C

The Story of Norfolk-Pitcairn Language---- a Radio Talk

Bruce Hill: Hello and welcome to Pacific Focus on Today's Society. I'm Bruce Hill. Norfolk Island in the Tasman Sea is home to one of the most unique cultures in the Pacific. And one of the things the islanders are most proud of is their unique language. But as with many languages in the region, the Norfolk-Pitcairn dialect is under threat of being diluted or being superseded entirely by mainstream English. So for the first time it's going to be taught in the schools on Norfolk Island. Ellis Buffet has written a grammar book and dictionary of the Norfolk-Pitcairn language to help school children learn the language. She says one of the concerns that the islanders have is that inter-marriage with outsiders might dilute the language

Ellis Buffet:A lot of children and young people who are of Norfolk Island blood or Pitcairn descent, who can't speak the Norfolk Island language, have come to me in recent years and asked me where their

culture is and where their language is. By 1987, I foresaw that it would happen that the people would be wanting to know how to speak their language. So I have given the language a writing system because English is too hard. You can't use the English might speak a fair bit of English mingled with the language (which is not pronounced the same as English), it was necessary to have a spelling system that could write the language as we pronounce it.

Bruce Hill: Is what you're doing here ... teaching it in schools and having written these books … are these going to be enough to save the language?

Ellis Buffet: No, they're going to have to use it themselves; you know, practise. People used to go up to the school and tell children Norfolk Island words and do a little bit of conversational Norfolk Island language. But my vision is that people, whose mother tongue is the Norfolk Island language, will also write in it too, and express themselves using their own language as fully as they can in the language that they have learned as their native dialect.

Bruce Hill: The Norfolk-Pitcairn language isn't of interest just to the islanders though. Professor Peter Muhlhausler of the Linguistics Department of Adelaide University says it's a fascinating blend of 18th century English and Tahitian , along with other elements. So Ms. Buffet, thank you for coming. And good luck to you!

Unit 3 Outside View Activity 1 Activity 2 Activity 3

Listening in News Report Activity 1 Script Prince George is influencing education just by going to school. Since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s announcement that the little prince will be attending a Montessori nursery school, more people have been interested in the Montessori method of education. The Maria Montessori Institute in London, which runs several schools and a Montessori teacher training centre, reports that there has been a 65 per cent increase in parents signing up for information about their schools compared to last year. Many are curious about the Montessori method, which focuses on the individual development of each child rather than tests and grades. Many people are also now interested in being a Montessori teacher. There is a specific training required for teachers at Montessori schools. There has been a 45 per cent increase in people looking to attend information sessions for teachers. The Maria Montessori Institute offers an open afternoon every so often when people can go and observe students, and those events have been fully booked since Prince George joined. 1. What is the news report mainly about? 2. What do we learn about Montessori schools from the news report?

Unit 6-Conversation 1 Janet: What are you reading, Kate Kate:Alice in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. Do you know it Janet: I've heard of it, yes, but I've never read it. It's a 19th century children's story, isn't it K a te: That's right. It's very famous. It's set in Oxford. It starts with this young girl sitting on a river bank. The interesting thing is, the author, Lewis Carroll, he was an Oxford professor and he used to have tea with the girl's family on this river bank. Ja net: Oh, that's fascinating! I'll put it into my diary. Kate: Is that what you're writing I know you've been keeping a diary all the year. Janet: It's been a great year. I've had such a good time — so lucky to have Mark and Kate as friends. Feel I've been doing well with work. Much happier about asking questions in tutorials. Janet: My screen's gone dark. Mark: You're using the battery, remember. It's run out, obviously. Janet: It can't be the battery. It's still charged. Oh no it's still black. Oh dear, I hope it's nothing serious. I haven't backed anything up recently. Kate: That's not like you, Janet. Janet:I know, but I lost my memory stick. I really should have backed things up. How stupid of me not to do that! Supposing I've lost everything! Mark: Let me take a look. The power is still on. And also the operating system still seems to be working ... I think it has to be the graphics card ... But maybe that's not the problem ... Janet: If only I'd backed things up! Kate: Relax, Janet! We'll take it to the computer shop this afternoon. I'm sure it'll be OK. Janet: I hope so. Unit 6-Conversation 2 Janet: Tell me about Alice in Wonderland. Kate: I tell you what, I'll read it to you. Kate: Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank and having nothing to do: Once or twice, she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversation" So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid) ... Janet: Kate, Mark, where are you going You've got my laptop! Kate: It's all right, Janet, we're taking it to the computer shop. We'll be back soon. Mark: It's not like Janet to forget to back up her work. Kate: She should have been more careful. Janet: It was stupid of me, I know! Stupid, stupid! Janet: Oh! It was a dream! What a relief! Kate: You were talking in your sleep. Janet: What was I saying Kate: "Stupid, stupid." M ark: I've sorted out your computer. Janet: Have you Oh, thank goodness! What was the problem Mark:It was the graphics card, as I predicted ... Janet: Is that what it was! I'm so relieved! Thanks, Mark. Kate: He's great, isn't he Janet: Yes. So are you, Kate. Kate: You're such a good friend. Unit 6-Outside view Computers are a very important part of our lives. They tell us about delays to transport. They drive trains, analyze evidence and control buildings. Did you know that 60 per cent of homes in Britain have got a PC (a personal computer) For many young people, playing computer games is their favorite way of spending spare time. Computers are a very important part of most areas of life in Britain-libraries, the police and in school. But they are becoming more important in our homes as well. They’ll even control the way we live-in “smart homes” or computer-controlled houses. The smart home is now a real possibility. It will become very common. A central computer will adjust the temperature, act as a burglar alarm and switch on lights, ready for you to come back home. And of course you will be able to give new instructions to the computer from your mobile phone. So if your plans change, your home will react to match. Many homes have got lots of televisions and several computers. The smart home will provide TV and Internet sockets in every room, so you’ll be able to do what you want whenever you want. If the temperature outside changes, the smart home will adjust the temperature levels inside. The computer will also close the blinds when it gets dark or to stop so much sun from entering a room. And if you want to eat when you get home, the computer will turn the oven on for you! Are computers taking over our lives In a survey, 44 per cent of young people between 11 and 16 said their PC was a trusted friend. Twenty per cent said they were happier at their computer than spending time with family or friends. Another survey found that people in Britain spend so much time on the phone, texting and reading emails that they no longer have time for conversation. What do you think about that Unit 6-Listening in

Unit 1 Outside View Activity 2 Activity 3 Script Eugene: The tradition that er, was most important to me was probably Summer Eights. I was a rower. And Summer Eights is a rowing competition, held in May in the summer term. And in this competition, each college is trying to improve its place which it won the previous year and gradually work its way up the river. Julie: When the students take exams, they must go to a special building and it’s called Examination Schools. And also they must wear a special uniform, so they wear a gown like mine, a black gown, and they wear a white shirt, and the men wear a white tie and black trousers. Um, the women wear a white shirt and a black skirt or black trousers. And they must wear this uniform, which has a Latin name –subfusc–and they must wear this uniform in order to take their examinations. Eugene: I think the Oxford traditions lend character to the place, and it’s such an old institution, it should have traditions, but they can be very inconvenient, for example, subfusc. This is the er, uniform that we are required according to the university rules to wear. Julie: They also wear flowers in their buttonholes, and those flowers are carnations. And they wear different colours, the students wear different coloured flowers for different examinations. So when you take your first exam you wear a white flower, and when you take your second exam you wear a pink flower, and when you take your final examination you wear a red carnation. Eugene: So we have to dress up in a full black suit, starched collar, white bow tie and carry a mortarboard. And to write an exam in the summer heat whilst wearing all that which you’re not allowed to take off, is um, uncomfortable. Julie: I really like the Oxford traditions, I think it’s part of our history, and part of um, being a student or a teacher here at Oxford University. News Report Activity 1 Script Oxford University has seen a rise in the number of applications from state school students thanks to Harry Potter. The university says that teenagers who have followed Harry’s adventures at Hogwarts are no longer discouraged by Oxford’s traditions because they remind them of scenes in

Jay: It's called "The Titanic of the Sky." It's about the Hindenburg, a great engineering feat. Elise: The Hindenburg ... Jay: You know, that giant zeppelin that crashed in 1934. Thirty-five people died. Elise: Oh yeah, I remember now. It was flying from Germany to the United States. It crashed as it was landing. Jay: Right. It's so funny looking, don't you think? It doesn't look anything like the airplanes as have today. Elise: That's true. Why would people ride in a zeppelin anyway? It seems so dangerous. Jay: Well, some people called the Hindenburg "man's greatest achievement in flight." They thought it was safe, I guess. Elise: Who rode in it anyway? Jay: Mostly wealthy people. It accommodated between 30 and 40 passengers and crew. One person said it was like a "flying hotel." Eise: It sounds pretty great. Jay: Yeah, and it was fast. That's why people rode it. They wanted to get to their destination faster. Elise: Why didn't they just take a jet plane? Jay: Elise! You know they didn't have jets back then. Look, in 1934 it took five days to travel from Germany to the U.S. by ship. The zeppelin could do it in half that time. It was speedy. Elise: Well, maybe I'll sit down and watch a little bit.

My country has two very famous buildings called the Petronas Towers. The buildings are made of glass, steel, and concrete. They were designed by an American architect, but he used a Malaysian style. They were finished in 1998, and they were the tallest buildings in the world at that time. Each tower has 88 floors, and is 452 meters high. I really like the Petronas Towers. They show both the modern and the traditional side of my country. T r a c k4-1-O L-5 A. Listen to a talk on controversies about modern buildings. Then fill in the blanks to complete the sentences. Modern buildings: We love them, We hate them The world-famous Louvre Museum in Paris is almost 500 years old, and it faced a very modern problem: There simply wasn't enough space for six million visitors each year. In 1989, American architect I.M. Pei designed a striking glass pyramid in the building's center to be a visitor entrance and shopping arcade. But he also started an angry debate. Some people felt his glass building was a piece of art, like the ones inside the museum. Others said it was just an ugly, modern mistake. Kyoto, Japan, is the country's ancient capital, and the heart of its culture. Its railroad station was too small for the millions of visitors. In 1997, the city completed a new station in a huge shopping center, right in the oldest part of the city. Designed by Hiroshi Hara, the building also contains a hotel and department store. Before it was built, critics said that the high, wide, modern building would destroy the city's traditional look. On the other hand, supporters said it would bring new life into the city center.
