31、nizer, prompter, participant, resource providerThe new curriculum requires the teacher to put on the following new roles: facilitator, guides, and researchers.6.The goal of teaching pronunciation should be: consistency, intelligibility, and communicative efficiency.7. Grammar practice is usually div

32、ided into two categories, mechanical practice and meaningful practice.8. As far as classroom procedures are concerned, the teaching of listening generally follows three stages: pre-listening stage, while-listening stage, and post-listening stage.IV. Problem SolvingDirections: Below are some situatio

33、ns in classroom instruction. Each has at least one problem. First, identify the problem(s). Second, provide your solution (s) according to what you have learned. You should elaborate on the problem(s) and solution(s) properly. Write your answer on the Answer Sheet. 1In one of the lessons. Mr. Li arr

34、anged the students into groups to talk about what they want to be when they grow up. To ensure that they applied what they learned, he required them to use the expressions in the text. To his surprise, students were not very active and some groups were talking about something else and one group was

35、talking in Chinese.Problems:1) Maybe the topic does not correspond with the students current needs. Suppose these students were interested only in getting high scores in examinations, they would not have interest in such a talk. 2) The activity is much controlled. They may like to talk about their h

36、obbies, but they have to use the expressions the teacher presents, which to some extent restricts them. That is perhaps why they are not very active. 3) If students talk in Chinese, it may be because the talk is a little too demanding for them in terms of language competence. When students have diff

37、iculty in expressing themselves in English, they will switch to Chinese. 4) Maybe the teacher does not arrange such activities very often in class. The students are not used to such communicative activities and so do not take an active part. Solutions:1)The teacher can ask the students to talk about

38、 their hobbies freely without considering the structure2) The teacher can give the task a real purpose. For example, he can ask the students to ask others about their hobbies to form a hobby club. 3) Its better to explain to the students the value of such kind of activity. 4) The teacher can circula

39、te around to encourage the students to talk in English.2. To cultivate communicative competence, Mr. Li chose some news reports from China Daily for his middle school students.Problems:1) Authentic materials are desirable in cultivation of communicative competence. But they should correspond to stud

40、ents ability. News reports from China Daily are too difficult for middle school students. 2) The content of news reports may not be relevant to the course requirement of middle school English. Solutions:1) If Mr. Li insists on using the materials from China Daily, it is necessary for him to adapt th

41、e material or select those reports which are easier to read and more relevant to students interests. 2) If he can, it is better to select news reports from other newspapers which are relevant to the students life and study. It is necessary to bear in mind the students needs when selecting materials

42、for classroom instruction.(第一项要求写出两点即可,而第二项要求能说出两点。)3. When two students were acting a scene in a restaurant, one of the students tended to pause and make some grammatical mistakes. To help the student, the teacher gave hints here and there, and helped him to get his language right.Problems:1)This i

43、s a communicative activity. The teacher should allow the students enough freedom instead of issuing too much control.2) The teacher should no, correct the errors here and there because the focus of the activity is on fluency, not on accuracy or form. Teachers intervention may divert the students att

44、ention from negotiating and exchanging information.3) The teacher neednt give the students hints while they are acting the scene.Solutions:1) It is advisable that the teacher wait until the activity has been completed before he gives feedback on the language and corrects the errors. 2) The teacher c

45、an let the students go on and wait until they finish before he gives comment on their performance.(问题部分要求写出两点,解决方式可以只写一点。)4. The following is what happens to most reading lessons.The teacher asks one student to read the text paragraph by paragraph, and then he asks the students to paraphrase some se

46、ntences, translate some sentences and answer some questions. At the end of the lesson, he asks the students to fill in the blanks based on the text. Problems:1) This kind of approach fails to take the text as a whole. In this approach, reading becomes language study, which contradicts the objective

47、of reading instruction. 2) This approach does not help to train reading strategies like skimming, scanning, inferring and so on. 3) This approach can help to solve the problem of vocabulary and structures in reading, but fails to help enrich students background knowledge and thus powerless in constr

48、ucting students schema. Solutions;1) First make clear the objectives of the reading lesson and then design activities to attain the objectives. 2) There should be activities to train reading skills and strategies.3) There should be information understanding, information transferring and information

49、application activities.(两部分都须写出至少两点)5. This is what usually happens in a listening lesson.The teacher plays the recorder, students listen and do the multiple choice, sentence completion questions in the listening course book. Now and then, the teacher stops and nominates some students to check other

50、 students understanding. At the end of the lesson, as the text book requires, the teacher arranges the students into pairs or groups to conduct some dialogue(s) or discussion.Problems:1) The teacher follows the course blindly and cannot make adaptation in accordance with the students needs and diffe

51、rent course requirements. 2) Multiple choice and sentence completion exercises are too artificial and cannot help to train real-life listening skills. In real life, we seldom listen to make multiple choices or fill in blanks. 3) The dialogue and discussion come too late. When they are conducted at t

52、he end of the lesson, it gives a feeling that the teacher can arrange no more activities and students tend to prepare for leaving.4) This kind of approach is too rigid and cannot motivate the students. Solutions:1) The teacher should adapt the course materials. It is necessary to make adjustments to

53、 suit the different needs of students and different course requirements. 2) There should be pre-Listening tasks. 3) The instruction should focus on training of real life listening abilities instead of simply the ability of making multiple choices.4) The teacher should do more than just press the but

54、ton. He should try his best to facilitate listening in class. It is necessary to design a variety of listening activities to foster listening strategies.(每部分要求至少回答出两点。) 6. In a writing lesson, the teacher writes the topic Environmental Awareness on the blackboard, and then asks the students to write

55、 an essay of 150 words in half an hour in class. Half an hour later, the teacher collects the writings.Problem: As the teacher asks the students to finish the writing task in class, it is better not to adopt such product-oriented approach. Even using this approach the teacher should do more than jus

56、t assigning the writing task. The teacher should help the students gather materials and generate ideas, monitor the writing process, and make sure students writing are to the requirement.Solution: It is better to adopt the process approach. If the process approach is adopted, there should be pre-wri

57、ting stage, writing stage, revising stage and also rewriting. For example, the teacher uses a brainstorming activity to ensure good thinking on the part of the students. As there will be no good writing without good thinking. Activities can be designed for students to make an outline. And it is bett

58、er for them to make two drafts. When the students finish the first draft, the teacher can give some suggestions for peer or group editing and then ask the students to write the second draft.7. At the practice stage of a grammar lesson, the teacher designs an activity with multiple choice questions to practise the grammatical items the students learned. Problem: The activity does not practice the grammar but test it. Multiple ch
