There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the materials carefully and do

32、the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1 Learners of a new language often find themselves in ambiguous (有歧义的) situations. These situations are characterized by complexity, novelty (新颖), unexpectedness, or a lack of clear-cut (清晰的) solutions. Such ambiguity arises when a person does not understand a se

33、ntence, paragraph, or conversation because it contains unfamiliar words or structures. Persons who dislike uncertainty tend to become confused and frustrated, perhaps withdrawing from the situation. They may give up or, in the most extreme cases, even go so far as to avoid further contact with the l

34、anguage. They prefer safe situations in which everything has been practiced, and explained. However, such behavior is not constructive because language students must learn to cope with uncertainty. Uncertainty is an inescapable part of communication. When someone speaks, he may occasionally feel uns

35、ure about his ability to get his message across. Even in the case of native speakers, there may be a lack of common background information, for example. In the case of second-language- learners, they may worry that grammatical or pronunciation errors will impede (妨碍) communication or even make it im

36、possible. Thus, the person who dislikes ambiguity may prefer to remain silent if he is not sure he can produce a perfect word. In fact, this behavior has been shown to impede true language learning. Since the main goal is to communicate, one should simply concentrate on producing a normal flow of sp

37、eech, instead of being obviously concerned with individual items. A spoken message, at the time it is needed, no matter how imperfect, is worth many unspoken messages, no matter how perfect. It is better to say something promptly rather than say nothing at all or to take so long to compose the words

38、 that the listeners patience is exhausted and interest in further communication is destroyed. Therefore, the successful language learner must deal with ambiguity and include the presence of a certain degree of uncertainty in his communicative strategies. 1. According to the passage, who would be suc

39、cessful in acquiring a second language?A.One who carefully constructs his sentences.B.One who accepts the inevitability of uncertainty.C.One who speaks without thinking.D.One who doesnt worry about individual items.答案:B2. What would be the most appropriate title for this passage?A.How to Formulate E

The type of uncertainty among native speakers would most likely occur in a conversation between _.A.a doctor and a nurseC.a scientist and a workerB.a father and h

41、is daughterD.a lawyer and his client答案:C4. From the passage it can be implied that the primary technique in using a second language should be to _.A.produce a normal flow of speechC.get ones ideas across slowlyB.create native-like talksD.say something at once答案:A5. The passage seems to show that the

42、 worst thing a language learner can do is _.A.refuse to interact with the languageB.excessively practice and learnC.say too much when asked a questionD.concentrate too much on proper pronunciation答案:ATask 2 Dear Mr. Smith: Thank you very much for your inquiry dated December 12, 2002.
