[00:07.31]Part Two

[00:11.09]Listening-Centered Activities

[00:15.44]Listening I

[00:19.01]Exercise 1

[00:23.08]Directions:

[00:26.82]You will hear an interviewer asking a teacher about her students

[00:33.66]Listening to the interview and tick the points which the teacher mentions.

[00:40.50]A; Since you're a teacher who's been teaching for some years now

[00:46.37]I'd like to ask you, "how would you describe a good student or a bad student?"

[00:53.57]B: Erm, well,a good students is usually one who's not afraid to make mistakes,I'd say

[01:02.10]A: Is there anything else you could say?

[01:06.53]B: Well, good students are eager to experiment with every new thing they lear

[01:13.55]Whether it is a structure or a new word, they immediately start trying to use it.

[01:20.50]A: Yeah, all right.

[01:24.20]B: And they're interested in the mistakes they make, they're not afraid to make them.

[01:29.96]A: So they're not just interested in having the mistakes corrected and moving on?

[01:37.24]B: No, no, no. They play with the language

[01:42.74]Bad students, on the other hand, don't try to experiment or to test themselves.

[01:49.22]A: Ahha, ahha.

[01:53.36]B: Bad students are usually passive

[01:57.90]They don't speak much in the classroom

[02:01.93]They rarely ask you to explain something

[02:06.90]A: They just accept what you say and don't do anything more with it.

[02:13.06]B: That's right and in a test they suddenly realize that they didn't

[02:19.50]really understand after all.A:Yeah.

[02:23.86]B: And they peep over at their neighbors' paper.A: Oh yes, that's one strategy.

[02:30.19]B: Right, and they usually think that the other person is more likely to be right

[02:37.90]I think that's the result of not wanting to make mistakes and risk being corrected,Mm.

[02:44.88]A:right, yeah. Er, anything else?

[02:50.14]B: Well, I think good learners are more independend

[02:55.36]They don't depend entirely 1 on the teacher.Mmhm.

[03:00.68]B: They'll read a lot.

[03:04.10]A: Mm, so they work outside the classroom as well as in it.

[03:10.12]B: Yes, yeah.

[03:15.23]B: Students who make the most progress are those who experiment

[03:22.10]and who can find time for reading after class.

[03:27.61]Exercise 2

[03:31.14]Directions:

[03:34.96]Listen again and take notes on what the teacher says about

[03:41.36]good students and bad students

[03:46.19]Then compare your notes with your neighbor.

[03:51.23]Listening II

[03:54.83]Exercise 2

[03:57.92]Directions:

[04:01.60]Listen to the passage twice and find out what kind of learner you are

[04:08.08]and how you can improve your language learning

[04:13.01]While listening, complete the table below.

[04:18.23]If your score is between 23 and 27, you are an analytic 2 learner

[04:27.01]You probably feel it is very important to be as accurate as possible all the time

[04:34.82]You may be able to improve your language learning by trying to speak more

[04:41.77]Don't worry too much about your mistakes

[04:47.21]Trying to be correct all the time is hard work

[04:52.43]and it can stop you from communicating well

[04:57.61]Remember that the people you speak to won't be listening for your mistakes,

[05:03.48]but for what you are trying to say.

[05:07.87]If you score somewhere between 9 and 13, you are probably a relaxed learner

[05:16.15]You seem to learn languages without really making too much effort

[05:22.60]and you usually enjoy  communicating with people

[05:28.79]However, you probably feel that you should be learning more grammar rules

[05:35.52]but you don't enjoy this and quickly lose interest

[05:41.17]Here are some suggestions

[05:45.42]Try finding more time to lear

[05:50.17]Try to organize a regular time for learning

[05:56.15]You probably need to correct yourself more

[06:01.44]If you try to become more aware of the mistakes that you make regularly

[06:08.14]you might find it easier to do something about them.

[06:13.68]If your score is between 14 and 22, you may find yourself a mixture

[06:23.29]that is, you are a combination of the analytic learner and the relaxed learner

[06:31.00]You learn in different ways at different times depending on the situation

[06:37.98]and what you are doing

[06:41.69]You should look at the descriptions of the analytic and relaxed learners

[06:48.35]You might find that you are more similar to one than the other

[06:53.93]This might help you to decide where your weaknesses are

[07:00.01]and in what areas of your learning you might improve.

[07:05.92]If your score is between 0 and 8

[07:11.75]it doesn't mean that you are not a good language learner

[07:17.54]Perhaps this is the first time you have thought about the way you learn

[07:23.81]To become a more efficient language learner

[07:29.14]you could observe how other students learn

[07:34.14]in order to find out some general information about learning languages
