《研究生英語(yǔ)聽(tīng)說(shuō)教程(引進(jìn)版)》在突出聽(tīng)力策略和微技能培訓(xùn)的同時(shí),通過(guò)大量的練習(xí)培養(yǎng)學(xué)生說(shuō)、寫(xiě)能力的教材。本教程共兩冊(cè)。兩冊(cè)教材在第一章都首先通過(guò)各種練習(xí)介紹了微技能,使學(xué)生真正了解它們?cè)谔岣呗?tīng)的能力方面的意義和作用。第一冊(cè)圍繞7項(xiàng)微技能進(jìn)行訓(xùn)練。第二冊(cè)除螺旋式地進(jìn)一步進(jìn)行7項(xiàng)微技能訓(xùn)練外,還增加了兩項(xiàng)難度較高的微技能訓(xùn)練,即Scanning for Background Information與Revising Assumptions?!≈档锰岢龅氖牵@套教材還注意結(jié)合最常見(jiàn)和最實(shí)用的情景,每章圍繞一個(gè)主題進(jìn)行聽(tīng)力訓(xùn)練。這些主題覆蓋面廣而且很現(xiàn)實(shí),例如既有日常生活的話(huà)題(超市、業(yè)余愛(ài)好、旅游等),也有學(xué)生十分關(guān)心的主題(就業(yè)選擇、個(gè)人困惑、面試、未來(lái)事業(yè)等)。由于這套教材是為以英語(yǔ)為外語(yǔ)的學(xué)生編寫(xiě)的。因此它不僅介紹國(guó)外的情景,使學(xué)生對(duì)英語(yǔ)國(guó)家的文化習(xí)俗有所了解,而且引導(dǎo)學(xué)生結(jié)合本國(guó)的實(shí)際進(jìn)行比較和討論。這就不僅使學(xué)生有話(huà)可說(shuō)。而且有親切感。這套教材的另一個(gè)特點(diǎn)就是它有十分豐富的練習(xí),而且是以練習(xí)為主體。教材在培養(yǎng)微技能時(shí)不是進(jìn)行理論講解,而是通過(guò)大量練習(xí)讓學(xué)生熟練掌握這些微技能,以取得“從用中學(xué),熟練掌握”的效果。因此,可以說(shuō)這是一套以聽(tīng)力技能訓(xùn)練為主線(xiàn),全面培養(yǎng)學(xué)生綜合運(yùn)用英語(yǔ)能力的教材,這和我們現(xiàn)在使用的許多單純培養(yǎng)聽(tīng)力能力的教材有著根本的區(qū)別。練習(xí)形式多種多樣,有個(gè)人作業(yè),也有雙人、小組等互動(dòng)型練習(xí)。多數(shù)練習(xí)都是開(kāi)放式的,要求學(xué)生主動(dòng)提供答案。使學(xué)生學(xué)得主動(dòng),練得主動(dòng),做到了以學(xué)生為中心。本套教材內(nèi)容豐富實(shí)用,有一定的難度。適用于具有中、高級(jí)英語(yǔ)水平的研究生使用。它既可以與培養(yǎng)閱讀等其它技能的教材配合使用,也可以作為單獨(dú)的教材使用。全套教材由學(xué)生用書(shū)、教師用書(shū)、聽(tīng)力磁帶和MP3光盤(pán)組成,使用十分方便。
