2. [原文]A study of English learning problems was carried out among a total of 106 foreign students. It shows that most students considered understanding spoken English to be their biggest problem on arrival. This was followed by speaking. Writing increased as a problem as students discovered difficulties in writing papers that they were now expected to hand in. Reading remained as a significant (显著的) problem.

  The information gained helped us in determining where special attention should be paid in our course. Although many students have chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation (动机) ，we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly all the students have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be self-defeating because it might reduce motivation,especially if it has failed in the past. Therefore,a different method may help because it is different.

  Varieties of activities were also seen as ways of maintai-ning (保持) or increasing motivation. Several years ago we had one timetable that operated throughout,but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest by about half-way through the ten weeks. This led us to a major rethink,so finally we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students.

1. [原文]The other day a friend of mine long standing watched as I tied my shoes and was overcome with laughter at the method I used. Ever since I was a little girl,people have made fun of the way I tie my shoes. No doubt this has left deep emotional scars (创伤) • But years of self-analysis has finally shown me the root of the problem： I did not go to nursery school,where most children learn the proper performance of the skill. I didn’t go to nursery school,or learn to read until the first grade. And I was prevented from enjoying watching Sesame Street because it had not yet been invented. The poor background considered,it is surprising that I have continued to live this long.
