答案E Now, I’d like you to discuss about the two ways of learning English—group discussion and English class. You should take care to share the opportunity of speaking. A I think the best way is group discussion. In my English class, my English teacher often let us discuss on some special topic. During the discussion, I make a presentation on my opinion and debate with others to clarify it. The atmosphere of class is very active, and we all readily learn English in this way. Our listening and speaking are both improved greatly. B But I’m afraid your English is not idiomatic. Maybe there are some problems in your pronunciation, and if so, you might be misunderstood by foreigners. From this angle, I think language lab is the best way. A In this way, your listening ability can be improved greatly, but not your speaking English. B Yes, I couldn’t agree more. Listening and speaking are both important to English learning. A So, I think group discussion is the best way. B Oh, I’m sorry to interrupt you. In my opinion, English corner is the best way. When you talk with a native English speaker, you can greatly improve your listening and speaking English. A But usually the English corner is held once a week. English learning needs to be practiced frequently. B From my point of view, these ways are all very important. As for an English learner, he should learn grammar and words, practice listening and speaking. The final goal of English learning is to use English fluently. So you should keep these ways in balance, and you can’t learn English well only by using one or two of these ways. B Why did you say that you don’t like big class? A There are several reasons. First of all, it’s tiresome and boring to take notes all the time in English class. And culture is neglected in the class. We even don’t know how to communicate with others in English after ten years of study. It’s really a failure of the university English teaching. So, this kind of teaching should be reformed. A Could you say something about the way your English class is conducted? How do you like it? B In my English class, my English teacher often organizes discussion among the classmates. Before we have a discussion, the teacher will divide us into several groups and give us the topic to be discussed in the next class. Then the students will begin to prepare for the topic in the following days. Every student is very active in discussion. Students will clarify their point by presentation and arguing with other students. Our listening and speaking ability can both be improved greatly in this way. So, I think it’s a good way to learn English especially for university students. B How did you learn to speak English? A Two years ago, I learned to speak English chiefly by group discussion in my English class and English corner. My English teacher would give us a topic before discussion. I was very active and liked to argue with others to clarify my viewpoint. Every Saturday, I would go to the English corner and talk with some native English speakers. In the English corner, I got to know my good friend Mike, who is an American. We are close friends now and I practice my English by talking with him in English. A In some universities, multimedia is used in teaching English. What do you think of this form of teaching? B I think it’s a very good thing, and all the university students will be happy to experience this change in English teaching system. Before the exercise of multimedia, we can only listen to the teacher or have a discussion with our classmates in English class. If we want to listen to the native English or talk with native English speakers, we have to listen to the tape recorder or go to English corner. However, by multimedia, we can watch English educational program or English movies in class, and the teacher can teach students according to the program or movie. This kind of facility can stimulate students’ interest by offering them vivid images and sound. It’s of great help to English learning; so nowadays more and more university classrooms are equipped with advanced multimedia.
