Hobbies are hot topics that are talked so much by people. A hobby is something we like to do in our spare time. It might be stamps collection, or making model airplanes.

Some don’t cost anything at all while others are very expensive. Some people think money is not important, but the pleasure it give us is.

Most people take up a hobby for pleasure, friendship, or to develop new interests. People of almost any age can enjoy hobbies of their own, enjoying a good hobby for a while after hard work helps people relax. Example 2

Almost everyone loves music and music is everywhere. We can hear it in a restaurant, in an airport, in supermarket and so on. And we also can enjoy music at home when we are tired or want or be relaxed. Music is important. Music can give us a better feeling about ourselves and about everything around us. When we feel sad, music can cheer us up. When we are exhausted, music can make us energetic. Music can also help us work faster and with pore energy. In a word, life without music is impossible. We cannot live in a world without any music. Example 3

Chinese chess is my favorite indoor hobby. Everybody says I am a fan of Chinese chess. Indeed, I like it best. Playing chess requires real skill. It requires thinking power to calculate each move. It requires exciting mental activities and that’s why so many people love Chinese chess. I like it partly because it give me real excitement I can nowhere find, and partly because it refreshes my mind. I hope that more and more people will like Chinese chess. Example 4

As for me, I like best to spend my leisure time in surfing on the Internet. I can make friends through internet. Now I have many cyber friends. And also you cannot fancy there’s so large an amount of information on the Internet, much of which we cannot know from the present textbooks but is more popular and important.

2.The second period: Speaking practice, (50 min). a) Section One: Essential Vocabulary

1． 1． Learning a second language is tough. It takes a lot of persistence.

2． 2． It’s important to learn English well because these days many jobs require English

background.

3． 3． However I think what’s even more important is that your knowledge and understanding

of culture is really improved.

4． 4． I just wish English wasn’t too difficult. I often confused some grammar rules. 5． 5． English is the kind of language, which is better learned by practice than by study.

6． 6． English seems so much different from Chinese. When you listen to it, it is difficult to

catch the individual words.

7． 7． Perhaps the best way to learn English is to just expose yourself to a lot of English and

then give yourself a lot of chance to use it. 8． 8． It opens your mind to a new culture.

9． 9． I think the best way to study it is to learn by using it.

10. I usually try to create something in my mind to use the new vocabulary. c) Section Three: Possible Questions and Answers

1. 1. Why are more and more people interested in learning English.

To begin with, the knowledge of English will make your work and life much more convenient. Good English also means chances and opportunities. With the open door policies adopted, there are more and more foreign companies in china. In the fierce competition at the job market, a candidate who can speak English has a distinct advantage over those who can’t. 2. 2. Do you think a good command of English is helpful to your future work?

Yeah. With English band 4 and band 6 certificates, we can easily get a job when we graduate from college. And we are more likely to succeed in our career if we have a good command of English.

3. 3. Which skill do you think is the most important for a college student, listening, speaking,

reading or writing?

I think, first of all, the four skills are interrelated with one another. The improvement in each aspect will help improve a learner’s overall language skills. But among them, I think reading is the most important because reading makes up the major part of an English exam. If you want to do well in an English exam you have to improve your reading skills. 4. How do you understand the importance of spoken English?

Well, we know that our country has entered WTO successfully; we will have more chances to

know the outside world. More and more foreign business and tourists have come to china. If

we are good at spoken English, we will have more friends and more opportunities. In the meanwhile English is becoming the world’s universal language. A good English speaker will find it much more convenient to travel abroad and to appreciate cultures of different countries. In a sense, spoken English is more practical than written English.

5. I have a problem getting the courage to communicate. What should I do?

It is difficult to develop this in a second language. Develop it best by telling yourself positive things about your ability to communicate.

6. 6. What is the best way to build my vocabulary?

The best way to do this would be to focus on building vocabulary as you read and in many different contexts. 7. Possible dialogue

Mack is talking to his friend Don about language study M: Hi, Don! How are you doing in your English class?

D: I am not improving. Tell me how come your English is so good? M: Well, I have an American girlfriend.

D: Aha! That’s it. Now I know what to do. (He runs off) M: Hey, come back! I was just kidding!

d)Section Four: Example Paragraphs

Example 1

English is an international language. Therefore, it is necessary for us to learn it. It can be rewarding or just a waste of time. It is up to you. It depends on how you study it. Here are some tips about learning English. First, don’t be afraid to make mistakes. You will learn from them. Second, you must not be shy. Be thick-skinned and speak up! Finally, you must be patient, remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day. Example 2

Our aim to learn, I think, is to master more academic knowledge but also to master the way to learn. Then what’s the better way of learning? Of course different people have and should have different ways and there is no real shortcut. I think, first, in the class we must keep our attention concentrated on the teacher’s lectures, trying to understand everything and also memorize them. Secondly if we have something we are not sure or have some trouble in understanding the lecture, ask ourselves and think it over by ourselves then we go for the help from our teacher or classmates. Thirdly we should finish our assignment in time. We shouldn’t leave today’s work till tomorrow. Finally, read as many reference articles and books as possible. Only in this way can we learn well. Example 3

A test of spoken English will be included as an optional part of the college English test (CET). Many people believe a test of spoken English is necessarily because spoken English is an important part of the language. Only when one speaks fluent English can we really master the language. A test of spoken English will stimulate students to improve their oral English. So such a test is necessary. And I intend to take it if possible. e) Section Five: Partnership Activity

Work with your partner to talk about language study according to the following subtopics: 1. The importance of spoken English. 2. The difficulties in learning English. 3. The best way to study English.

4. How English helps scientists or engineers with their research and projects.

3. 3. Possible questions and answers 1). What do you do during the Spring Festi8val?

I usually go back to my hometown and spend a week in my parents’ home. We eat delicious food, visit family and friends, and watch TV. I also like to try to contact my high school friends and see how they’re doing and what they’re up to. We give

each other presents and we buy ourselves new clothes to wear for the new year. 2). Can you describe one of the main festivals celebrated in your country?

National Day, which is on October the First, is a big holiday. We get three days off and there are a lot of fireworks displays. There are large flower pictures and other types of flowers decorating the city, and some of the larger cities hold parades. 4. 4. Example Paragraphs

1). My favorite holiday is the Spring Festival. When the Spring Festival comes, I can go home to be reunited with my family and friends. I love to travel on the trains with all the other happy people and I love to arrive back in my hometown. On the eve of the Spring Festival, the whole family gathers together to have dinner and to talk. After dinner, I receive money from the elders in my family that I can use to buy all kinds of nice things. The elder members of the family usually watch TV and the young set off firecrackers. This year there were many families who bought fireworks. We enjoyed the beautiful colors and all the noise. During the Spring Festival, everybody seems much friendlier to each other than usual. Everybody says “Happy New Year”. I think the Spring Festival is an important traditional holiday when people feel close to their family and are kind to their friends and neighbors.

2). The Spring Festival is always a big distraction, and for days before and after nobody can get any work done. I find myself enjoying it less and less. First, firecrackers are dangerous. Every year many children have their eyes hurt or even blinded. Even worse sometimes fires are started and whole buildings get burned down. Second, the rich food is unbearable. When I eat them, I feel they are tasteless. Lastly, we are too busy every day to have friends and relatives to call on. And there ate lots of useless conversations and greetings. 5. 5.
