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.

Variety of activity was also seen as a way of maintaining(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 halfway through the ten weeks. This led us to a major re-think, so finally we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students.

10. What is the text mainly about?

When I was studying at Yale, some phenomena puzzled me greatly. I found that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American Students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and dominating the discussion. The Chinese students were not as aggressive as American students.

I was impressed by the role of the professor during the discussion. The professor didn’t act as an authority, giving final conclusions, but as a researcher looking for answers to questions together with the students. He used many modal verbs—far more than I used in Beiwai. When answering questions, he usually said, “This is my personal opinion and it could be wrong.” Or “You could be right, but you might find this point of view also interesting.”

In China, authorities are always supposed to give wise decisions and correct directions. Therefore, students always expect the professor to give an answer to the question. I still remember how frustrated they were when foreign teachers did not provide such an answer. Their expectations from authorities are much higher than that of American students. Once the Chinese students got the answers, they were sure about it.

Education in China is valued for united thinking. I remember American teachers who taught in our university complaining about the fact that Chinese students uniformly expressed the same idea in their English composition. The examinations in America usually do not test a student’s ability to memorize the material but his ability to analyze and solve problems. Education in America is valued not only as a means to obtain employment but as a process of developing critical thinking.

1．In the USA, when the students are in class, __ __.

A．a Chinese student tends to be more lively

C．a Chinese student likes to puzzle the teacher

D．an American student tends to be active

2．A teacher in the USA prefers to be very ___ _ when he answers questions.

A．sincere B．direct C．self – confident D．careless

3．What kind of teaching does the author prefer?

A．To make students learn more.

B．To improve students’ remembrance.

C．To learn to solve problems by oneself.

D．To give less tests to students.

4．The education in USA may produce more graduates.

A．productive B．competitive C．creative D．imaginative
