Based on the theories in this unit, what are the main educationalfactors that cause teacher L’s wholehearted enthusiasm to meet w ith cold indifference from his students?Key: In the first place, teaching is an interactive activity in which bo th teachers and students become more developed. Teacher L condu cts a completely exam-oriented teaching, which is boring and mund ane. He is ignorant of students’learning needs and there is no int eraction between them. Secondly, in language teaching, the more i mportant factor is students’positive and active approach to learni ng. Teacher L obviously doesn’t care about students’motivation a nd incentive; he crams learning materials and exam content in the students, regardless of students’emotional response. Lastly, teaching should be teacher-led but students-centered activity. Here teacher L takes teaching as teacher-led and exam-centered. He is putting th e cart before the horse. Only by focusing on students’learning ne eds and motivation can they perform well in exams and achieve lea rning goals.2. In your opinion, what kind of classroom teaching activity conform s to the essence of education?Key: The essence of teaching is to lead students to develop and th e teacher’s job is to help students to find answers by themselves a nd to explore language learning methods by themselves. Therefore, the teaching activity that conforms to the essence of education is a series of questions thrown to students to help deduce proper ans wers.Section 21. What do you think are the main causes for the misunderstanding in the argument “English teaching in elementary and middle schoo ls in China cannot be communicative competence oriented”? Key: It ignores the fact that language is the tool for communication and communication is the function of language. It is through inter personal communication that language remains active and vigorous. Therefore, one of the teaching goals of elementary and middle school English should be to develop student’s communicative compet ence. If communication is removed from the goals of English teachi ng, then language learning becomes a boring process of memorizat ion. There’s no fun in it. Besides, without focusing on communicati on, language learning will be far from effective, since communicatio n is the best way to learn all languages.2. After reflection on your own English study, identify what your ma in learning problems are.Key: The main learning problems may include: 1) fear of speaking E nglish, especially in public; 2) lack of motivation; 3) imbalance of fu n and homework.Section 31. What do you think is the major mistake in the viewpoint “one’s vocabulary size is the indicator of whether one’s English learning i s successful”?Key: This statement overemphasizes the role of vocabulary. It shoul d be noted that vocabulary constitutes only a part of language; the re is also grammar. Even if one has a good mastery of vocabulary and grammar, there are still culture and style to bear in mind. A su ccessful English learner should have certain awareness of culture wit h a good command of vocabulary and grammar. S/he should be ab le to adjust his or her style on different occasions; his or her knowledge of English should be able to satisfy his or her needs successfu lly.2. What do you think the essential difference between an English la nguage curriculum and an English literacy curriculum is? How do yo u understand the instrumental nature of English curriculum and the humanist nature of English curriculum in the National Curriculum S tandards for English in Schools in China (MOE, 2001)?Key: 1) The essential difference is that an English language curriculu m is to develop students’overall competence in English. Its teachi ng and learning process is to cultivate students’proficiency in the basic four skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. By the end of the learning, students should be able to communicate effectivel y in English, have certain knowledge of English culture and develop some value and abilities. However, an English literacy curriculum is to focus on students’reading ability. The main job involved is to teach students to read and perhaps to write. The teaching objective and learning purpose is narrowed down to master a set of words; communication is absent in this curriculum.2) It’s instrumental in that it views English as a tool for communic ation. To achieve effective communication, not only vocabulary and grammar but culture is embodied in the teaching goals. Besides, it i s instrumental in that it sets English as a tool help understand oneself and the world. The job is not only to learn language but to dev elop and better oneself. It is humanist in that it concerns not only the learning of language but the development of children. Chapter 2 ELT Methods and Approaches in and outside China Section 11. Based on what you just learned, give suggestions to Miss M to help solve her problem of having nothing to teach after the second week of the term.Key: Miss M should follow certain theories in teaching. She should work out the teaching plan at the beginning of the term and adjust her teaching to the usual pace. Most importantly, she should take into consideration of students’learning realities, including questions like: how do students like her teaching method? Have students ach ieved the supposed goals after the teaching? Does her teaching me et students’present language level? Has the teaching covered less than expected or something unnecessary? She should first conduct a needs analysis of students, then works out the teaching plan base d on the needs and finally assess teaching and learning after a cert ain period.2. What do you think is the best language teaching approach or m ethod?Key: The Communicative Approach is the best language approach in that it covers the most important aspect of language learning: lan guage is learned to communicate, to exchange meaning and inform ation and to share feelings. It is the language in use that injects lif e and vitality into language and that makes it a more real existence of life. Language teaching and learning should be centered on co mmunication, which should be regarded as a proper method and th e final goal.Section 21. What is the problem with Mr. N’s complaints that the course bo ok does not explain much about grammar, does not have enough grammar exercises, and has too many activities?Key: The problem is the contradiction between the design of textbo ok and the actual assessment of teaching and learning. The design of the textbook is based on the task-based approach: students are supposed to achieve learning goals through the completion of a ser ies of tasks. The main activity involved is communication. However, Mr. N has to find lots of grammar materials outside the textbook f or students because little is mentioned in the book and what is me ntioned cannot meet the requirements of exams, which includes lots of grammar and little completion of tasks. There is certainly a gap between the textbook design and the assessment and this causesmuch challenge for both teachers and students. To bridge up the g ap, either should be adjusted to adapt to the other.2. Consider the style of a teacher you know. Do you think his/her t eaching is in line with the National Curriculum Standards? Please gi ve reasons and examples.Key: My high school English teacher’s teaching is not consistent wi th the National Curriculum Standards. In the first place, the focus of his teaching is on vocabulary and grammar. English lessons are fill ed with mechanical and meaningless drills instead of meaningful tas ks. Besides, his teaching does not allow too much communication. T hroughout the class, he spent much time explaining grammatical po ints and little time is devoted to communication. Finally, his teachin g doesn’t encourage holistic development for he was always haste ning for exams and ignoring students’learning needs. There was n o time for value-imparting or affection-influencing. All these contrad ict with the National Curriculum Standards.。

Chapter 13 Teaching English Culture and Affection in SchoolsSection 11. Please describe the cultural connotations of the following words in Chinese and Western countries.(1) bat, dog, dragon;(2) peasant, intellectual, politicianKey: (1) In Chinese culture, “bat”symbolizes “luck”since it has the same sound of “福”, meaning luck, however it is often associated with death and blood in western culture; “dog” often carries a derogative meaning in Chinese culture, implying something degrading in expressions like “狗仗人势” and “狗眼看人低”, while it is often associated with “loyalty”and “faithfulness”in English; “dragon” often symbolizes authority and good luck in Chinese culture, however it implies something terrifying in western culture.(2) In Chinese culture, “peasant”means farmer, an agricultural worker, however it is derogative in western culture, implying someone who have rough unrefined manners; “intellectual”refers to someone who has received education and even a high school student would be called an intellectual in rural areas, however in western culture, it is limited to university professors with academic prestige, excludes university students and sometimes is derogative; “politician”is positive in meaning in Chinese, indicating someone who isengaged in politics while it is derogative in English, meaning someone who is skilled at handling people or situations, or at getting people to do what he wants.2. The following is a page from Go For It!, 8B by People’s Education Press. Please design a teaching process with the culture experience method.3a Read the article about a theme park. Circle the places, things, and activities you think are interesting. Underline the ones you think are boring.Have you ever been to Disneyland?Most of us have probably heard of Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and many other famous Disney characters. Perhaps we have ever seen them in movies. But have you ever been to Disneyland? In fact, there are now several different Disneyland amusement parks around the world.Disneyland is an amusement park, but we can also call it a theme park. It has all the normal attractions that you can find at an amusement park, but it also has a theme. The theme, of course, is Disney movies and Disney characters. For example, you can find a roller roaster in most amusement parks, but in Disneyland, the theme of the roller coaster is Disney characters. This means that you can find Disney characters all over the roller roaster. You can also watch Disney movies, eat in Disney restaurants, and buy Disney gifts. And you can see Disney characters walking around Disneyland all the time!Have you ever heard of a Disney Cruise? These are huge boats that also have the Disney theme. You can take a ride on the boat for several days, and you cansleep and cat on board. There are also many attractions on board, just like any other Disneyland. You can shop, go to Disney parties, and cat dinner with Mickey Mouse! The boats take different routes, but they all end up in the same place.

Chapter 14 Educational Technology and Resources for English Teaching inSchoolsSection 11. What kind of E-media do you frequently use? What do you take into consideration when you choose it: the effect or convenience? Please give your reasons.Key: I often use the computer since it’s both effective and convenient. On the computer, I can display English songs or audio materials and pictures and even audiovisual films. It’s easy to operate and saves a lot of time. And students can learn better with the pictures and sounds presented.2. Is the instructional media that you use most the most effective one? Please share your experience with your partner.Key: Perhaps not. The teaching aids should be chosen according to the actual needs of students and teaching and there is no need to turn to multi-media if there is no necessity, say, the teacher is to explain a grammar point. Never should too many sounds or pictures be piled together on the screen. They should be organized in order and to the point.Section 21. Is the saying “the more resources, the better” correct? Why?Key: The saying is not correct. The reasons include 1) more resources cause too much burden, which may be too much for students to assimilate at a time; 2) some of the resources may have nothing to do with teaching content and should be eliminated; 3) even if they are all useful for the teaching, they should be filtered since there is a limit of time of each lesson. As long as resources are ordered to the point and can successfully achieve the goal of teaching, they are good enough.2. How can we develop supplementary resources?Key: In order to develop appropriate supplementary resources, we should first analyse the learning contents and find what the gap is between these and the students’learning objectives. We can then develop learning resources in keeping with the language difficulty of the learning contents as well as the learning objectives for students’study of the text, thus accelerating the realization of the learning objectives.。

Chapter 5 Strategies of English Teaching in SchoolsSection 11. How should we arrange the seats in the classroom? How should we give instructions to our students? What interaction patterns should we employ in class? What should we do if there are discipline problems? After reading this chapter, do you know what strategy they belong to? What kind of management strategy did your teachers use? What are the similarities and differences among their management strategies? Why do you think they used them? Can you summarize your own ideas on effective management strategies?Key: 1) The seats of the classroom should be arranged according to the size of the class. The arrangement should meet different kinds of classroom activities. Meanwhile, it should help the teacher to monitor the class and students to see the teacher’s presentation.2) Different interaction patterns may be adopted based on the needs. It can be the interaction between teacher and the whole class and can also be the interaction between one student and another student, one student and several other students or a group of students and another group of students.3) If discipline problems arise, teachers should be calm enough to evaluate the situation and be flexible enough to make judgments as to whether some changes should be made.4) They belong to the teacher-strategy since they are concerned with how the teacher manages and leads the class.5) For classroom management, my teachers invariably adopt the orderly rows, since the class is very big and much of the time is spent on listening to the teacher. Not many movements are involved. As for instruction strategy, my teachers demonstrate after giving out clear instructions and always check whether we have understood their meaning. And for activity-selection strategy, they combine the participation-oriented strategy and the goal-oriented strategy.6) They all want to ensure the discipline of the class and make sure the class goes on as expected. The difference is that some teachers are too focused on one single strategy and are at a loss when something goes wrong.7) They use the strategies partly because they are effective and best for the existent circumstances, partly because they are the most common strategies know to the teaching circle.8) Effective management strategies are important in that they are part of the teaching. Whether management strategies are effective or not will decide the quality of teaching and learning. Without proper management strategies, all the preparation work might become futile.2. Do you still remember the way that your teachers gave instructions? Use the principles mentioned in this section to evaluate if they were effective.Key: When my teachers were giving instructions, they would first clearly state the instructions and then they will demonstrate how to do the tasks. Finally, they willask “Do you understand?” to check our understanding. If the questions are too easy to understand, they will not spend too much time explaining. They are effective because most often we can complete the tasks effectively.3. What types of activity have you experienced in your English learning experience? Key: There are many kinds of activities, such as: the whole class work, pair work, group work, presentation, role-play and so-on. They are effective in that they can successfully fulfill the purposes of teaching and invites students’ participation as well.Section 2How many types of questions are mentioned in this section? What are they? What are their respective features?Key: 1) Seven questions are mentioned in this section.2) They are knowledge questions, comprehension questions, application questions, inference questions, analysis questions, synthesis questions and evaluation questions.3) Knowledge questions are used to elicit factual answers; comprehension questions are used for interpretation and elaboration; application questions are used to supply information to new situations; inference questions are used to infer extra information from the materials; analysis questions are used to break down one question into several parts; synthesis questions are used to combine elements into a new pattern; evaluation questions are used to elicit judgments.Section 3How many presentation strategies are mentioned in this section? What are they? What are their respective features?Key: Fifteen strategies are mentioned. They are:1) Use previous knowledge to introduce new knowledge: it’s easier for students to accept the new knowledge;2) Use realia or pictures: it is vivid and interesting; 3) Use performance: it can arouse students’ interest; 4) Use daily communication: it is common and east to understand; 5) Do it step by step: it’s gradual and can facilitate understanding; 6) Use translation: it can attract students’attention to the new content; 7) Use circular presentation and practice: students can become familiar with the content taught ; 8) Use the new language items in advance: it can arouse curiosity; 9) Ask our students to solve problems: it can push students to find the answer by themselves; 10) Use questions: it can push students to think; 11) Use explanation: it can clarify points; 12) Use inductive learning: it can help students understand the general; 13) Use deductive learning: it can develop students’ analytic ability;14) Use inquiry learning: it invites students to be active learners; 15) Use exemplification and imitation: it is vivid and lifelike.Section 4After studying this section, have you deepened your knowledge of classroom assessment strategies?

Chapter 12 Teaching English Learning Strategies in SchoolsSection 11. How do you think Ms Zhao should organize the content of her lecture?Key: Ms Zhao can organize her lecture as follows: 1) the definition of learning-strategy; 2) different kinds of learning-strategy; 3) the way to acquire suitable learning strategy.2. How should she classify English learning strategies?Key: She can classify English learning strategies into cognitive strategy, meta-cognitive strategy, affective-strategy and social strategy. Cognitive strategy is the system of methods we employ when we perceive, process, comprehend, memorize and retrieve information; metacognitive strategy is regarded as a system of methods by which learners monitor and control their own cognition; affective strategy is regarded as a system of methods by which learners control and regulate their motivation, emotion and attitude; social strategy is regarded as a system of methods by which learners use English to coordinate the relationships between themselves and others in social interactions and so that communication can be smoother.Section 21. Is Ms Zhou’s teaching approach appropriate for her students?Key: Obviously, Ms Zhou’s teaching approach is not suitable for her students and is more appropriate for postgraduates majoring in second language acquisition or English teachers. That’s because learning strategies are too theoretical and hollow for students to understand.2. How can she improve?Key: There is no need for her to specially introduce the learning strategies to students. She can try to mix the strategies with her teaching. For example, while she is teaching oral English, she can mention several strategies of improving spoken English. More importantly, she should remind students that different people should choose what’s best for himself or herself.。

Chapter 10 Teaching English Listening and Speaking in SchoolsSection 11. Which listening teaching model do you think suits you best? Why?Key: The PWP teaching model suits me best. Because this teaching model divides teaching and learning into three stages familiar to students. In the pre-listening stage, a new schema is set up, background information is provided and listening expectations are established, which lays the foundation for the following activity. During the while-listening stage, students are expected to practise listening skills with the teacher’s help. In the last stage of post-listening, speaking and writing activities are provided to enhance students’ ability.2. Why is schema so important for teaching listening?Key: Because listening is not only a process of decoding sounds, but also a process of prediction, inspection and validation. During the listening, listeners use non-linguistic media to predict, analyse and process listening material so that they can have a better and fuller understanding of the information. The non-linguistic media include cultural, practical, social, strategic and topic knowledge, the listening material, the speakers and the context, which are together called schematic knowledge.Section 21. What is the gap between how speaking is taught in elementary and middle schools and the requirements of the National Curriculum Standards?Key: The National Curriculum Standards require students to actually produce something of their own, be it facts or opinions. They have to achieve accuracy, fluency and appropriateness in speaking. However, in teaching speaking in elementary and middle schools, students are often made to repeat or mechanically imitate meaningless dialogues. No information gap exists and no communication is involved, which fails the goal of the Curriculum. As a result, students cannot speak English properly but only recite what’s in the textbook.2. P lease give an example to explain the teacher’s roles in task-based teaching of speaking.Key: In task-based teaching of speaking, one task can be asking directions. Before the task, the teacher could be information provider and provide related words and expressions for students. S/he can even give an example of the task. During the task, the teacher can be a guider and helper if students have difficulty carrying out the tasks. S/he can also be a participant of the task. After the task, the teacher could be an evaluator to assess students’ completion of the task and come up with suggestions for the future.。
Chapter 2 ELT Methods and Approaches in and outside ChinaSection 11. Based on what you just learned, give suggestions to Miss M to help solve her problem of having nothing to teach after the second week of the term.Key: Miss M should follow certain theories in teaching. She should work out the teaching plan at the beginning of the term and adjust her teaching to the usual pace. Most importantly, she should take into consideration of students’ learning realities, including questions like: how do students like her teaching method? Have students achieved the supposed goals after the teaching? Does her teaching meet students’ present language level? Has the teaching covered less than expected or something unnecessary? She should first conduct a needs analysis of students, then works out the teaching plan based on the needs and finally assess teaching and learning after a certain period.2. What do you think is the best language teaching approach or method?Key: The Communicative Approach is the best language approach in that it covers the most important aspect of language learning: language is learned to communicate, to exchange meaning and information and to share feelings. It is the language in use that injects life and vitality into language and that makes it a more real existence of life. Language teaching and learning should be centeredon communication, which should be regarded as a proper method and the final goal.Section 21. What is the problem with Mr. N’s complaints that the course book does not explain much about grammar, does not have enough grammar exercises, and has too many activities?Key: The problem is the contradiction between the design of textbook and the actual assessment of teaching and learning. The design of the textbook is based on the task-based approach: students are supposed to achieve learning goals through the completion of a series of tasks. The main activity involved is communication. However, Mr. N has to find lots of grammar materials outside the textbook for students because little is mentioned in the book and what is mentioned cannot meet the requirements of exams, which includes lots of grammar and little completion of tasks. There is certainly a gap between the textbook design and the assessment and this causes much challenge for both teachers and students. To bridge up the gap, either should be adjusted to adapt to the other.2. Consider the style of a teacher you know. Do you think his/her teaching is in line with the National Curriculum Standards? Please give reasons and examples. Key: My high school English teacher’s teaching is not consistent with theNational Curriculum Standards. In the first place, the focus of his teaching is on vocabulary and grammar. English lessons are filled with mechanical and meaningless drills instead of meaningful tasks. Besides, his teaching does not allow too much communication. Throughout the class, he spent much time explaining grammatical points and little time is devoted to communication. Finally, his teaching doesn’t encourage holistic development for he was always hastening for exams and ignoring students’ learning needs. There was no time for value-imparting or affection-influencing. All these contradict with the National Curriculum Standards.。
Chapter 4 Principles of English Teaching in SchoolsSection 11. How can you determine whether an activity is student-centred?Key: A students-centered activity should meet the following standards: it should emphasize how to learn instead of how to teach; the teaching content should be on language skills instead of language content; there should be an increasing attention to students; the way the teaching content is presented should change.2. With reference to the National Curriculum Standards, can you explain how to implement the student-centred principle?Key: To implement the student-centered principle under the guidance of National Curriculum Standards, the whole teaching process should be consistent with students’ needs. In the textbook analysis, teachers should adapt the content of teaching materials and activities to students’psychological needs; in lesson preparation, teachers should understand students’ current knowledge and skills form feedback; in teaching activities, teachers should plan and prepare varied teaching activities according to the knowledge structures, learning motivation, interests and other characteristics of the students; in teaching methods, teachers should adopt varied teaching methods to help students feel and understand language intuitively.Section 2The reasonable objective principle must be combined with the student-centred principle to achieve teaching goals. Explain the differences in the teaching objective at elementary, junior middle and senior middle school when dealing with the topic on sports.Key: When teaching elementary students the topic of sports, teachers should impart to them some everyday sports activities such as badminton, ping-pong, running and swimming. Besides, students should be able to make one or two sentences with these activities, for example, I like ping-pong. No written work should be involved in this stage. While teaching junior students the topic of sports, teachers should extend sports activities to a wider range and the expressions and sentences involved should be more various. Students should use more complicated sentences to express their sports preference, such as my favorite sports is...; I prefer...to...and so-on. And, they should also be able to develop dialogues in sports. When it comes to teaching senior school students the topic of sports, dialogues should not only be longer in length, but should be deeper in depth. Compositions can be used to enhance the topic.Section 31. Explain the relationship between the effective principle and the student-centred principle.Key: The two principles are interrelated: on the one hand, to conduct the effectiveprinciple, teachings activities must be student centered and must obey the student-centered principle; on the other hand, teaching activities based on the student-centered principle are certainly effective in practice. They interact with each other and reciprocate each other.2. What kinds of class activities are most effective?Key: Student-centered activities are most effective. These activities are conducive to students’ needs, consistent with the reasonable teaching plan, use language that is easy to understand, pay attention to students’ response and encourage students to ask questions and evaluate themselves.Section 4The following dialogue is a typical example of sentence pattern exercises. Which one do you think is more adapted to the realistic principle?1. A: What is on the table?B: There is a book on the table.2. A: Where are my shoes?B: Under the bed.Key: Obviously, the second dialogue is more adapted to the realistic principle. The fact is that in real life we don’t speak out every word as is required in the textbook. Some unnecessary words are omitted to save both time and energy and more are omitted especially when a person’s style is simple or the situation doesn’t permit long sentences.。
Chapter 13 Teaching English Culture and Affection in Schools
Section 1
1. Please describe the cultural connotations of the following words in Chinese and Western countries.
(1) bat, dog, dragon;
(2) peasant, intellectual, politician
Key: (1) In Chinese culture, “bat”symbolizes “luck”since it has the same sound of “福”, meaning luck, however it is often associated with death and blood in western culture; “dog” often carries a derogative meaning in Chinese culture, implying something degrading in expressions like “狗仗人势” and “狗眼看人低”, while it is often associated with “loyalty”and “faithfulness”in English; “dragon” often symbolizes authority and good luck in Chinese culture, however it implies something terrifying in western culture.
(2) In Chinese culture, “peasant”means farmer, an agricultural worker, however it is derogative in western culture, implying someone who have rough unrefined manners; “intellectual”refers to someone who has received education and even a high school student would be called an intellectual in rural areas, however in western culture, it is limited to university professors with academic prestige, excludes university students and sometimes is derogative; “politician”is positive in meaning in Chinese, indicating someone who is
engaged in politics while it is derogative in English, meaning someone who is skilled at handling people or situations, or at getting people to do what he wants.
2. The following is a page from Go For It!, 8B by People’s Education Press. Please design a teaching process with the culture experience method.
Key: Free answer is favored.
Section 2
Analyze the emotions and attitudes of the student below, and design a solution to the problem. Zhang, a 15-year-old boy, is a junior middle school student in class 2, grade 3. His father is a small private business owner. Zhang’s score is average and he has little interest in learning English. He says, “I just can’t learn it well. What’s more, it is useless to me. I’ll take over my father’s busines s after graduation.” As an English teacher, what will you do?
Key: Zhang doesn’t have a strong motivation towards learning English and he bears a negative attitude towards it.
As an English teacher, I will tell him that his opinions are wrong. In the first place, he CAN learn English well as long as he devotes more time and efforts to English; secondly, English is USEFUL to him. He cannot hasten into the decision that he will take over his father’s business because one can never be too sure about the future; he may probably change his decision three years later. Besides, even if he takes over his father’s business, English will still be useful. We can see foreigners everywhere in China. They are in the cake shop, in the book store and in the café and may have cooperation with his business. It’s better to be armed with the language of English.。
