Slide4: 英语精品课程设计 Section A : If you don’t make mistakes ,
you won’t learn!
Slide5: If you don’t make mistakes, you won’t learn! At Sunday's graduation, Su-Kyeong Kim will speak to the 385 members of her class. This might seem like a dream to a girl like her. Kim hardly spoke a word of English when she first arrived in the USA four years ago. But now, her dream has become a reality. 英语精品课程设计
Slide6: Kim was only 15 years old when she first arrived. Within four years, though, she has managed to become so fluent in English that she doesn't even have a foreign accent! She has won many awards, and has even written a book about her experiences in learning English.
Slide7: Kim first saw the need for the book when she began helping Korean students at her school after they had just arrived in the country. She knew they were having the same troubles that she had experienced. 英语精品课程设计
Slide8: "You think you are the only person feeling embarrassed when making mistakes," she said when we interviewed her, "but everyone does it." She calls her book Looking for Trouble. It means that the road to success in learning a second language can be difficult. "I want others to know that it's OK to make mistakes," she said, "that nothing can be gained without risk. Lots of people think other people do not make mistakes. It's not true. Everyone makes mistakes. But you can turn those mistakes into a big step toward your success." 英语精品课程设计
Slide9: In the book, Kim writes about her "terrible" situations: a taxi driver left her and her mother in a dark parking lot at midnight because they had not been able to give the driver the right address in English; she gave the wrong pronunciation of the word "sheet" in asking for a piece of paper, and her teacher thought that she had said a rude word; she heard a girl say "Do you mind if I sit with you?" and she answered "Yes!" loudly. 英语精品课程设计
Slide10: These experiences taught Kim an important lesson about learning English well: You have to be brave. Never be afraid of making mistakes. You have to dare to learn the language — you can't just sit in your own room and only study grammar. You have to go and talk to people and listen to them speak. Take a leaf out of Kim's book! 英语精品课程设计

Section B : Section B Lead in and explore the topic:
Why are we good listeners
in our own language?
2. What can we get from the name
of the program?
3. What is the suggestion made in the last paragraph about the news headlines?
Slide25: Section B: Listening to a Radio Program
in English
英语精品课程设计 Listening to a radio program in a foreign language is difficult for many of us. We may have studied the language for years, be able to read and even speak and write in the language. However, listening to a foreign language calls for different skills. Some people have a natural ability to learn languages quickly because they know how to "listen". Others have to study for a long time. Everyone, however, can improve his or her listening skills with practice.
Slide26: We are good listeners in our own language because we have had years of practice. We understand the grammar and the words. We also understand the style of our own language. We know what to expect in almost any situation because we have heard similar conversations many times before. As a result, we can understand what is being talked about, even if we are not listening carefully. Unfortunately, this is not true with a foreign language. We have to listen really hard and we must try not to let the style of our own language affect our learning of the foreign language.
Slide27: Listening to a radio program in a foreign language is easier if we know something about the subject already. Evening Programs are usually quite long and detailed. Morning programs, however, usually have many short items of news or information. These are good to listen to because we often do not have the time or energy to listen to those in the evening. 英语精品课程设计
Slide28: The name of the program will usually tell us what the subject is (e.g. A Week in Politics). But sometimes, it may not! In this case, you can try guessing what the program will be about. Another suggestion is to try listening to the news headlines in a foreign language every day, and then compare them with the Chinese ones. You could also listen to the weather reports, as they are usually short and sweet. However, be prepared to listen carefully because the presenters often speak very quickly. Last but not least, try to listen to a foreign radio program every day— a little bit of listening practice every day is better than a lot, all in one go!
Slide29:
1.however adv.
1). in spite of this; nevertheless 然而;不过 There is, however, another side to this problem.
My room is small. It‘s very comfortable, however.
2). to whatever degree 不管到什么程度 However cold it is, she always goes swimming.
