English Module

Introduction

If you want to be a good speaker, so you have to be a good listener
If you want to be a good writer, so you have to be a good reader.

English is not our language. But English Is an international language if we want to master of English. We have to try and try tto practice whatever we can.
We realize when we learned it. The common problem of English language have to overcome by all students, and the diificulties they find are similar in all parts of the world.
Regional differences can always be dealt with by the teacher, who hould be aware of the particular problems of his students. The following general principles are self evident:
1. All students want to speak, read and write the normal accepted of today.
2. This can only be achieved by constant practice, with some rational explanation of the basic of English language.
3. Languages can be mastered only when we learn step by step or not instantly. We can not speak, read and write suddenly. Therefore we have to begin tudying it from the vase of languages generally.

How this module should be used? This is one of the ways to answer the foreign student’s problems, and to stimulate him to practice by listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

English Module (Part 4)

Tape-script and key: --------------------- Nigel isn’t very tidy, so his room is usually in a mess before Mrs Greenfield does the housework. Look, there’s a CD in the wardrobe and there are some magazines and a sweater under the bed. Nigel’s jeans are on the bedside table and his socks are on the stereo. There are no cassettes on the stereo. They’re in the chest of drawers. And look, there are no pens on the desk. Guess where they are! On the chest of drawers of course.
