W: Good evening and welcome to tonight’s program. Our guest is Dr. Charles Adams, who has sparked a great deal of attention over the past several years for his research in the area of language learning. His new book, Learning a Language over Eggs and Toast, has been on the best seller list for the past six weeks. Welcome to our program.
M: It’s a pleasure to be here.
W: Now, Dr. Adams. Tell us about the title of your book, Learning a Language over Eggs and Toast.
M: Well, one of the most important keys to learning another language is to establish a regular study program, like planning a few minutes every morning around breakfast time.
W: Now, sorry for saying this, but your ideas may sound a little simplistic to our viewers. I mean I took Spanish in high school for four years, and I didn’t become a proficient speaker of the language.
M: Well, I think there are many people that feel that way, and that’s just it. I’m not implying that we can become fluent speakers in a matter of a few minutes here and there, but rather following a regular, consistent, and focused course of study can help us on the way to the promised land of language mastery, and remember there is a difference between native fluency and proficiency in a language, and I am proposing the latter.
W: So what are some of the basic keys you are suggesting in the book?
M: Well, as I just mentioned, people need to plan out their study by setting realistic and attainable goals from the beginning. I mean, some people get caught up the craze of learning the language in 30 days, only to become disenchanted when they don’t perform up to their expectations. And small steps, little by little, are the key. For example, planning to learn five new vocabulary words a day and to learn to use them actively is far better than learning 30 and forgetting them the next day.
W: Now you mentioned something about maximizing your learning potential by learning about your own individual learning styles. Can you elaborate on that?
Questions 1 to 5 are based on what you have just heard.
1. What helps Dr. Adams attract the public’s attention?
2. What is the key point of learning a second language?
3. According to Dr. Adams, what is an attainable goal of language learning?
4. How does Dr. Adams think of the idea of learning a language in 30 days?
5. What is Dr. Adams’s suggestion to tap one’s learning potential?
选项
A、Practical.
B、Conventional.
C、Novel.
D、Unrealistic.
答案
D
解析
Dr.Adams建议人们应该设立实际可行的目标(realistic and attainable goals),然后就说有人有疯狂的想法——30天学成外语(就是提问所说的),从craze"疯狂”一词可知这个想法是个反面例子,这是不现实的,故选D项。
