Getting English Language Learners to Put Down the Books and Have Some Fun

Even if there's so much about English that can be learned from a book or even in a traditional classroom setting,a lot of the language can still be learned best in more relaxing situations where students are having fun.Here are some suggestions.

★Communicate with strangers.If you live in an area filled with English speakers,get students out of the classroom.(1)    .Students may not speak to strangers,but they'll hear conversations taking place and may begin to understand how the words learnt in the classroom are actually used in everyday speech.

★Let their guard down.One difficult thing for learners is confidence (自信)when they speak English.Fun activities,especially those outside of the classroom,give students a chance to feel relaxed.(2)    .It may take a bit of time at the beginning,but once students get into it,they'll start to get confidence.

★Make use of English media (媒体).Most recorded language instruction is pretty boring and it can get tiring hearing the same voice repeat the same phrases.(3)    .They will hear common expressions and more everyday conversations in the movie.If they're not sure about something they hear,it can turn into a more formal lesson once back in the classroom.

★(4)     .Casual (随意的)conversations give learners the chance to hear or use English in situations.They can talk all they want about expressions to use while dining out or informal words to use with friends,but it takes a trip to McDonald's or a picnic in the park for many of those expressions to truly set in.

A.

You can let students go to a movie in English.

B.

Put them among other English speakers.

C.

They may hate to speak English.

D.

Hear or use English in situations.

E.

They will speak more freely.

(5)How do you learn English? (回答不多于10个单词)

The invention of barcodes(条形码)is based on a very simple idea.We only need to give each product a specific number and print it. (1)   We could simply print the number itself.But this can cause problems.For example,an unclearly printed "seven" could look like a "one" to a computer.It's also true for "three" and "eight". (2)    We need a better way of printing numbers so that they can be read correctly at high speeds.That's the problem barcodes solve.

    Each number in a barcode is shown by seven blocks of the same size. (3)    For example,the number "one" is shown in turn by two white stripes(条),two black stripes,two white stripes,and one black stripe.(4)   

    A barcode includes different parts and each one provides a specific meaning.The first part of a barcode tells you the country where the product was made.For example,690—692 is the barcode for China. (5)    .The final part is about the product itself.This is how barcodes work.

A.Then computers can read it directly.

B.All information can be shown by barcodes.

Recently,teenagers face many kinds of problems.Like many of them.I was once troubled with worries and dissatisfaction.Few people could understand my feelings.(1)   

    "The problem with your generation is that you always expect to be happy," my mother once said.(2)   Shouldn't we try hard to achieve it?

    But now I have noticed a change in my thinking.I gradually realize what my mother said was correct.Over these years,many studies have shown that we are crazy about happiness and high personal confidence(3)    In fact,we may often be happier when we stop focusing on happiness.

    We should also reset our expectations of the future.Don't expect miracles(奇迹),and accept that no matter how hard we try,feelings of failure and unhappiness will appear from time to time.When we feel sad,it's often because we have learned something painful but important.(4)   At the same time,we should learn how to deal with them better than trying to make them disappear.

    (5)   As my mother tried to teach me all those years ago, "Prepare for the worst,hope for the best,and be unsurprised by everything in between."

A.Neither could my parents.

B.We should keep the stress off ourselves.

C.Surely happiness was the purpose of living.
