如果备课充分，学生的英语水平又高，教员可采用美英教员教授母语的方法，抛开课本或讲义，只讲有关课文的重点词语、背景知识和写作手法等。

这样，学生除预习外，课后还要结合教员在课堂上所讲的内容好好复习课文。

这两种授课方式的好处是，使学生通过自学(指预习)和教师的指导，自己主动去掌握知识。

与以教员为中心的灌输式教育方式相比，学生更能巩固所学，并使他们今后更能发挥学习潜能。

此外，这也使有的教员摆脱了那种课文注释那么详细而觉得在课堂上没有多少可讲的被动地位和局面。

Army Study of Iraq War Details a 'Morass' of Supply Shortages by Eric Schmitt陆军研究伊拉克战争的细节的泥沼供应短缺埃里克·施密特The first official Army history of the Iraq war reveals that American forces were plagued by a "morass" of supply shortages, radios that could not reach far-flung troops, disappointing psychological operations and virtually no reliable intelligence on how Saddam Hussein would defend Baghdad.第一次伊拉克战争的正式军队的历史表明，美国军队被困扰的“泥潭”的供应短缺，收音机无法到达遥远的部队，令人失望的心理作战，几乎没有可靠的情报关于萨达姆·侯赛因将如何保卫巴格达的。

Logistics problems, which senior Army officials played down at the time, were much worse than have previously been reported. While the study serves mainly as a technical examination of how the Army performed and the problems it faced, it could also serve as a political document that could advance the Army's interests within the Pentagon.物流问题，高级陆军官员遇到的，在那时，比以前报道的糟糕得多。
