1. Write a passage titled with “What mistakes do Chinese students often make while using English?” Here are some examples given by Mark Griffiths, who works in China as an English teacher. Read the information carefully and write the passage in less than 150 words.

Look Out for Mistakes!

By Mark Griffths & Lynn Lu

Lynn: As you’ve been living and teaching in China for four years, you’ve met a number of students. What’s your impression of their English?

Mark: Whilst I hate to get the interview off to a negative start, I would have to say“poor”.A recent survey shows that Chinese students spend more time on English than any other school subject. Not only that, but reasonable English is supposed to be required to enter most universities. In addition, almost every Chinese student thinks English is either “very important” or “essential”.

Lynn: Could you try to answer your own question for us?

Mark: Students usually blame the education system .They say that teachers don’t let them “be active” in class .In my experience, Chinese students don’t want to be “active” in class .Maybe that’s why the teachers have to use less effective methods. I don’t blame high school students too much, but anyone who is at university or wants to go to university has no excuse, in my opinion. There are many foreigners studying at Chinese universities and it is now very easy to meet foreigners socially in Chinese cities-even smaller ones.

Let me say that I’ve met thousands of Chinese students who complain and give excuses for their poor level of English. The simple fact is that those few students who go out and use their English make rapid progress. Those who don’t, get left behind.

Lynn: Which are the most common language problems you’ve met?

Mark: Some of the most common ones are talking without thinking, mixing “he” and “she”, large numbers, overuse of certain words, and not using comparatives.

Lynn: Could you give us some examples?

Mark: Sure.

Here’s one where “he” and “she” got mixed up. (Example 1)

S: I read a newspaper story about a man who killed a girl. She killed her with a knife.

T: Did a man kill the girl, or did a woman do it?

S: I told you. A man killed the girl and she did it with a knife.

T: Did the man become a woman as he killed the girl?

S: Uh?

T: You said she did it with a knife. Who was the woman?

S: The woman?

Here’s an example of problems with large numbers. (Example 2)

T: How many people live in Beijing?

S: About one thousand seven hundred million people live in Beijing.

T: But there are not that many people in China!

Lynn: Can you give us some other interesting situations?

Mark: Of course. (Example 3)

T: Tell me something about Beijing.

S: Beijing is big because it is a large city.

T: So, Beijing isn’t big because it’s a small city?

S: I’m an only child. I have brothers and sisters.

解答此题的注意事项:

一、要认真阅读所给的文章,并在论述中加于利用

例如: “Here’s one where ‘he’ and ‘she’ got mixed up.” From what has been described above, we can admit that the lack of the opportunities for students to practice English or even produce English is the main cause that students may make such kind of mistake…

二、要结合标题 “Look Out for Mistakes!”,同时在论述中要结合自己的学习体验或教学经验,You may write like this:

I still remember the first time when I first spoke English. I was so nervous and made a funny mistake, for example, Yesterday I goed to school by bike…After I became en English teacher, I did give my students a lot of time to practice English in and out of class. And I tried all means to encourage them to use English as often as possible…

三、要注意论述题本身的要求,进行三段式的写法

2. Write a passage titled with “How to be a good English teacher?” according to your own teaching experience in less than 150 words. The following information “Voices of four students” and “Voices of two adults” may help you while writing the passage.

 

Voices of four students

Student 1: What is a good teacher? I think a teacher should be good at explaining (解释) things. A teacher should be fun (有趣) but challenging(有挑战性). A good teacher should be organized(井井有条). I like a teacher who teaches fun activities(有趣的活动) in class and not just writing on paper. A teacher should like teaching.

Student 2: A good teacher is firm. They have good manners and they don't do bad things. They buy things for you and they buy you toys, books, and things. They do not say bad words. Some teachers give you cake and ice cream. They have good ideas.

Student 3: They let us read books. They do not hit us. They let you eat in the classroom. They let you talk.

Student 4: A good teacher makes a good listener. And a good teacher is ready for their students. A good teacher is someone that helps you. A good teacher is a person who lets us eat. A good teacher is one who lets us read and reads with us.

 

Voices of two adults

Adult 1: I think to be a good teacher you already have to be a good person, because if you are a good person a lot of people would already respect you. Another thing that makes a good teacher is they should make the subject fun and interesting, that way the students would learn it and be more interested in it. Some other things that some teachers don’t know it is that you be yourself and be a good teacher at the same time.

Adult 2: I like to be an English teacher, and have countless students. And they will remember you forever, but maybe you have forgotten their names. It is proud for you to have such kind things like this. Do you know how to teach them? And you are having enough knowledge to express the accurate thing to teach your students. You will be very happy and proud when your students have a great success. But I can’t be a teacher. It is a pity in my all life. Something is difficult to control for us. We need to change something.

解答此题的注意事项:

(一)要认真阅读所给的文章,并在论述中加于利用

例如:第一个学生认为“好老师的标准”是:讲课有趣(fun),讲课应有挑战性(challenging),讲课有条理(organized);第二个学生认为“好老师的标准”是:上课要严肃(firm),不讲脏话(bad words);第三个学生认为“好老师的标准”是:上课比较和蔼(kind),不打骂学生(hit);第四个学生认为“好老师的标准”是:上课生动、循循善诱(a good listener),乐于助人(ready for their students)。

(二)要结合标题“How to be a good English teacher?”,并在论述中要结合自己的教学经验

例如:一位小学英语教师可能在论述会更多注意“讲课有趣”、“比较和蔼”、“不打骂学生”等“好老师的标准”:As I am an English teacher who teaches in a primary school, most of time I would like to be a very kind teacher, and never too strict with my pupils. Also in the classroom teaching, I will use quite a few teaching techniques to make my class lovely and rather active. In this way, most of my pupils will be rather attentive in my teaching…

而一位高中英语教师可能在论述会更多注意“讲课应有挑战性”、“讲课有条理”、“上课生动、循循善诱”等“好老师的标准”:Actually, being an English teacher in a senior school is not an easy job because most senior students are rather critical for their teachers. As we know, the senior students will face the entrance exams for college. If the class is not a well organized challenging one, the students may feel they get little from it. That’s why …

(三)要注意论述题本身的要求,进行三段式的写法

第一段:陈述文章观点

例如:In my opinion, being a good English teacher, first of all an English teacher should know and better understand the knowledge of English language itself and knowledge of Methodology. Also, he or she should know some knowledge of related to English language teaching, for instance, psychology…

第二段:结合教学经验举例说明文章观点

例如:参看“How to be a good English teacher?”,并在论述中要结合自己的教学经验” 。

第三段:结论:重述文章观点

例如:With the development of society and English language teaching, being a good teacher is what teachers are expected and every teacher has to make sure what he or she wishes to be: a teacher who copies the text-book or a teacher who use the text-book effectively with the help of wide knowledge of language, education, psychology…

3. Write an essay according to the knowledge of the book English Language Teaching Methodology, or according to your own experiences.

Read the following passage titled with “Do students with limited spoken English have to push themselves?” carefully and write a passage titled with “ How to Help the Students with Their English Learning?” in less than 150 words.

Do students with limited spoken English have to push themselves?

When students with limited spoken English start taking college classes with more fluent speakers, they may need to push themselves to participate and succeed in class.

Student 1 (Phuong Huynh, a student originally from Vietnam):

I have been living in the U.S.A. almost two years. The hardest thing for me about being in classes with students who have lived in the U.S. for a long time is to understand the way they answer the questions when the teachers ask them because they use a lot of new vocabulary that I do not know. It is hard for me to get the answers. They speak too fast, too. The best thing that I like about being in a class with those students is to communicate with them. I can practice my speaking skill.

In my past classes, almost all my classmates had come to the U.S. at the same time like me or less, so they couldn't speak well and I didn't either. We didn't talk to each other much because we didn't know how to explain to the others what we wanted to say. We didn't understand when we communicated with each other by some English words, and the rest of the conversation was sign language. Now, I don't feel lonely anymore because I have been here long enough to communicate with my classmates.

Student 2 (Manabu Kuwahara, an international student from Japan):

I am a typical Japanese. Although I do well in grammar, I am not good at speaking. It is because I mainly learned grammar in English classes for six years in Japan, but I scarcely learned how to pronounce a word and speak. I studied only for entering a university (the exam is grammar and reading).In my advanced writing class, I don’t care that some students can speak English fluently, and it does not matter because speaking and listening is not the subject. However, during class discussions, it is uncomfortable because I want to speak and I don’t want the other students to be bothered by my strange speaking in the class, but I am always learning how to pronounce words, new vocabulary, and how to use words.

I have no idea how the different groups of students help each other to achieve their common goal of learning English because their goal is different. One student is trying to improve writing to transfer to a university; the other wants to improve speaking for business. However, I think that it is a good way if people who can do well in grammar, but can’t speak fluently can teach grammar to people who are not good at grammar, but can speak fluently.

一、要认真阅读所给的文章,并在论述中加于利用

例如:When students with limited spoken English start taking college classes with more fluent speakers, they may need to push themselves to participate and succeed in class.

二、要结合标题“Do students with limited spoken English have to push themselves?”,并在论述中要结合自己的教学经验

You may write like this:

In my opinion, I do think that students with limited spoken English have to push themselves…

三、要注意论述题本身的要求,进行三段式的写法

4. Write an essay according to the knowledge of the book English Language Teaching Methodology, or according to your own experiences.

Lesson planning is necessary and beneficial to both experienced teachers and new teachers. According to your understanding, what should a teacher pay much attention while doing lesson planning in less than 150 words.

(The following passage titled with “Components of a lesson plan” and “Principles for good lesson planning” may help you to do your writing.)

Components of a lesson plan

The advantages of a concrete teaching plan is that teachers can follow it in the class and check what have done. This plan will be the basis of a record of what has been covered in class, and will make it easier to make achievement tests later. The teaching plans will be good records for the entire course. So what does a lesson plan included? A language teaching lesson plan usually has the following components: teaching aims, language contents and skills, and teaching stages and production.

Principles for good lesson planning

There are four major principles for good lesson planning. They are variety, flexibility, learnability, and linkage:

1. Variety: Variety means planning a number of different types of activities and where possible introducing students to a wide selection of materials so that learning is always interesting, motivating and never monotonous for the students.

2. Flexibility: Flexibility means to use a number of different methods and techniques rather than being a slave to one methodology. That will make the teaching and learning more effective and more efficient.

3. Learnability: Learnability means the contents and tasks planned for the lesson should be within the learning capability of the students.

4. Linkage: Linkage means the stages and the steps within each stage are planned in such a way that they are somehow linked with one another. Language learning needs recycling and reinforcement.

解答此题的注意事项:

一、要认真审题,并围绕主题进行阐述

例如:主题是关于What should a teacher pay much attention while doing lesson planning, you can start to write like this:

During English language teaching, we all know that lesson planning is rather important both for Experienced and new teacher. If you are an experienced teacher, it is not necessary for you to write a detailed lesson plan, you can just write out some main points about lesson plan. But for a new teacher, you’d better write a detailed lesson plan….

二、要结合标题“What should an English language teacher pay attention to while doing lesson planning?”(请结合自己的教学经验给文章取一个标题),同时在论述中要结合自己的教学经验

You may write like this:

In my opinion, I do think a good lesson plan should include the four elements mentioned above. Firstly, I want to say something about Variety, which means planning different types of activities to arouse students’ interest of practice…

三、要注意论述题本身的要求,进行三段式的写法

In the last part, you can write like this:

In a word, a good lesson planning can assure half success of your teaching. Only when you prepare the lesson in a clear and interesting way, can you be much more confident while teaching…
