B
How do young people learn best? This is something I think about a lot when teaching foreign
languages to young people. I often find that traditional teaching methods are neither always effective
nor interesting for young brains to learn a foreign language.
After moving to southern Italy, I was lucky to have had the chance to run a private course
teaching English to under 7-year-olds. I was aware that children liked to sing and enjoyed games so I
wanted to use these tools to help my students develop English conversation skills. I found some fun
and easy songs online, which they loved. I also found the English versions of some nursery rhymes
they recognized. All of them were very interesting and helpful but students could still not have a
basic conversation in English.
I knew I wanted these guys to be fully immersed in the language I was teaching and I also
wanted them to speak it. I was keen to give 90% of my lessons in English but I knew it’d be difficult
to get them to speak in a foreign language they have little or zero exposure to outside our lessons, so
I had to come up with a simple yet effective plan.
One day I decided to prepare a simple dialogue in English, so that I could get them to sing and
chant (有节奏地反复地唱) it, rather than simply getting students to repeat the phrases. I discovered
that chanting some conversational sentences was the way to get students to speak in English — it
worked!
So when teaching English to young people now, I encourage them to make up their own songs
and chants to help them remember expressions or complex sentences.25.What is the passage mainly talking about?
A.How to make young learners like a foreign language.
B.How to teach foreign languages to young people.
C.How to run a private course in southern Italy.
D.How to help the younger children with studies.
26.What does the underlined word “immersed” mean in the 3rd paragraph?
A.Amused B.Buried
C.Related D.Informed
27.How did the author feel when faced with difficulty in teaching?
A.He found it impossible to teach children with little English.
B.He tried to be a patient and responsible teacher.
C.He realized he was unable to finish the task of teaching.
D.He was actually kind of discouraged and disappointed.
28.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Mistakes are an important part of education.
B.A teacher can never tell where his influence stops.
C.A teacher should understand his students’ needs.
D.Confidence is the first step on the way to success.
