Have you ever been on a student exchange program? How useful was it? We asked three people for their opinions.

Ellen

I spent 8 days in Germany when I was studying for my Level A. I went to school every day, and spent the evenings with a family. It was great because I had to speak German all the time. However, the most useful thing was that I was paying more attention to communicating in the language, instead of speaking perfectly correct German. I was really glad that people could understand what I was saying. I’d certainly introduce it to other students studying languages.

Frank

I went on an exchange with my class for a week in Japan. Before the exchange, I thought my understanding of grammar was pretty good, but I had much trouble listening and speaking. So, what I thought most meaningful was that I had no choice but to use everyday language skills, rather than the language from books. If I had the opportunity, I’d certainly take part in another language exchange.

Alice

I took part in a French exchange. It lasted two weeks and I stayed with my exchange family in a small town just outside Paris. I’m quite a shy person, so in the first few days, I was kind of nervous, but then it was fine. I love French and my French has always been good. But the exchange really helped develop my speaking skills, and made me a much more confident person. It felt great to be able to talk with French people. I also found that everyone who took part in the exchange did a lot better in their end-of-year exams.

1.How long did Frank stay in Japan?

A.A week B.Eight days. C.Two weeks. D.Half a year.

2.What did Alice think about her exchange?

A.It developed her listening skills. B.It made her more confident.

C.It taught her exam skills. D.It took too much of her time.

3.All three people would most likely describe their exchange as .

A.tiring B.exciting C.boring D.helpful

4.Who will be interested in the passage above?

A.Students who are learning a foreign language.

B.Students who want to work as teachers later.

C.Students who are interested in traveling abroad.

D.Students who are not doing well in their studies.

What do you think of a “talking kitchen”? A French Digital (数字) Kitchen has been developed at Newcastle University in the UK. It teaches students how to cook French food and speak French at the same time. For the first time, students can learn a language by the following cooking steps.

All grammar and vocabulary have been carefully chosen to make sure the users can understand French well. After learning for some time, the users can test themselves by doing a short test on the computer.

The kitchen project was started by Professor Paul Seed house. He became interested in the idea after he visited another kind of talking kitchen. He said, “The purpose (目的) of the French Digital Kitchen is to make learning a language more interesting and more educational.”

How does the kitchen work? There is a computer in the kitchen. With this computer, the users can first choose a French recipe (食谱) that they want to follow. Using information in the computer, the kitchen starts to guide the users how to make a French dish. If you follow the instructions (说明) on the computer, it moves on to the next. If you go wrong, the program goes back and “says” the recipe or information again.

The new kitchen can be used in school, universities and even people’s homes. The researchers will also be developing the European Digital Kitchen, for the next three years.
