More Communication in English Class

As a language, English is essentially a vehicle for communication. Communication as a function has become so important in English teaching methodology that a distinctive school of English teaching has been created—the Communicative Approach. This fully testifies to the growing importance of communication in English learning and acquisition.

Unfortunately, in Chinese universities, English classes, like many other classes, are primarily teacher-dominated. For a long time, both students and instructors have seemed contented with discussing grammar and understanding passages through reading, overlooking the oral communication which is much more essential. However, communication is a bridge leading to closer student-teacher interaction. Students should overcome their diffidence and nervousness ensuing from their grammatical deficiencies. They should simply become more concerned with expressing themselves than seeking grammatical accuracy. As they become more outspoken and expressive, they would automatically become more grammatically competent.

The emphasis on communication in English classes will result in many obvious advantages. English will become an instrument of expressing thoughts for the person who speaks it, instead of a tool just for reading about the thoughts of others. In addition, teachers can have positive and timely feedback from students through communication. Finally, by honing their communicative skills, Chinese students will become more competent in interacting with their international counterparts in this age of globalization. I believe those factors are what English learning is all about for Chinese students.

【參考譯文】

英語課上應有更多的交流

作為一種語言，英語本質(zhì)上是人類交流的一個載體。作為一種功能，交流在英語教學法中是如此之重要，以至于一種獨特的英語教學流派已被創(chuàng)立起來，即“英語交際法”。這充分標志著交流(際)在英語學習與習得中與日俱增的重要性。

不幸的是，在中國的大學里，英語課，如同其它許多課程一樣，基本上由教師所主導。長期以來，無論是學生還是老師，似乎都滿足于討論語法，通過閱讀來理解文章段落，而忽略了更具本質(zhì)意義的口頭交流。但是，交流是一座橋梁，可以促使師生進行更為密切的互動。學生們應該努力克服由于語法上的不足而引發(fā)的不自信和緊張心理。他們應盡量專注于如何去表達自己，而非追求語法上完美無瑕。隨著他們變得更愿意開口交談，更具表達能力，他們在語法上會自然而然地變得越來越得心應手。

英語課上對交流的強調(diào)必將帶來諸多顯而易見的裨益。對于說英語的人，英語將成為用以表達他自己思想的工具，而不是用來去拜讀他人的思想。此外，通過互相交流，老師可從學生那里獲取及時和有益的反饋。最后，通過磨練其交際技能，中國學生可以在當下的全球化時代里。更加游刃有余地與國際上的同齡人展開互動。我相信。對于中國學生而言，所有這些因素，都是學習英語之根本所在。
