Ⅳ. Exercises for
Integrated Skills
1. Dictation
There are
generally two educational methods: the lecture
method and the group
learning method. In a
lecture classroom, the teacher dominates the
class by
doing most of the talking. Students
listen and take notes. This method is best
at
passing on content to students. It prepares
students for a society that values
discipline
and self-control. The problem is that students
forget most of the facts
that they have
mechanically memorized. In contrast, the teacher
of a group
learning classroom appears to have
no definite role at all, wandering about from
group to group. Students do not memorise
information, but they actively generate
their
own ideas, each contributing insights for the
success of the group. This
method prepares
students for a society that values creative
ideas. The
disadvantage is that students have
not memorised enough basic facts.
2. Fill in
each blank in the passage below with ONE word you
think appropriate.
Academic success (1)
________ in many forms. For most students, it’s a
stellar
transcript that opens doors into great
jobs or great graduate schools. For

Ⅳ. Exercises for
Integrated Skills
1. Dictation
There are
generally two educational methods: the lecture
method and the group
learning method. In a
lecture classroom, the teacher dominates the
class by
doing most of the talking. Students
listen and take notes. This method is best
at
passing on content to students. It prepares
students for a society that values
discipline
and self-control. The problem is that students
forget most of the facts
that they have
mechanically memorized. In contrast, the teacher
of a group
learning classroom appears to have
no definite role at all, wandering about from
group to group. Students do not memorise
information, but they actively generate
their
own ideas, each contributing insights for the
success of the group. This
method prepares
students for a society that values creative
ideas. The
disadvantage is that students have
not memorised enough basic facts.
