Much practice material in EFL courses is tightly controlled and somewhat mechanical–necessarily so as learners cannot be expected to manipulate large quantities of language in the early stages of learning. What we need to look for in coursebooks is whether the practice material stops at the stage where language practice is there for language practice’s sake or whether it is recognized that this is only a transitional stage before the learner achieves some degree of communicative competence: the ability to use language for his own purpose, appropriately and confidently.

Choose the alternative that best completes the gap in the short paragraph below, adapted from an article by Gareth Rees, which deals with the teaching of reading using news articles
(found in www.teachingenglish.org.uk).
Read the following paragraph adapted from Mario Rinvolucri’s How useful are comprehension questions? and choose the best answer.
The list of questions could be much longer and more detailed, but you will notice they all focus on the students’ elaborated text and on their reactions to the text. None are about details of the original text. “Very nice” I can hear some readers saying “but what if the students did not understand the language during the telling?” My answer to this is that the teacher needs to make sure she gets her meaning across by using mime, drawing and L1 glosses on words or phrases that may be hard for students. It is the teacher’s job to ensure language comprehension as she tells a story, and I believe minimal, disciplined recourse to L1 is natural in this situation.

Question comprise a cloze test based on the beginning of an excerpt on lesson planning. For each of the numbered gaps in the following text, choose the alternative that best completes it. You should consider both grammatical correction as well as contextual appropriateness.

Many of the same principles that apply to the selection of materials can be used in designing daily lesson plans: that is, lessons should be planned to include contextualized and personalized practice, small-group interaction, creative language use, culturally authentic listening and reading practice, and functional tasks similar to those that might be encountered in the target culture. The following _______ may help teachers plan more effective lessons.

Consider the content that is to be taught for a given class day. Think in terms of themes, cultural contexts, and functional tasks to be ________ , as well as grammar and vocabulary. Plan a lesson that flows within the contexts you have identified, integrating the grammatical concepts, functions, vocabulary, and cultural information _______ the chapter themes. Choose to embed the practice activity in large discourse units: minidialogues, paragraphs, role-plays, and the ________ . For example, if you plan to teach interrogative words and expressions, consider how students can use questioning strategies to accomplish a real-world task that is coordinated ________ the theme of the unit or chapter.

Consider what students should be able to DO at the end of the class period. Plan activities that will help students _________ functional objectives. Make activities student-centered _______ than teacher -centered; that is, plan practice activities that involve all students actively during the class hour. Students need to use the skills they are learning ________ they are to become more proficient;watching the teacher use the language is not nearly so beneficial to ________ . Small-group work, board work, dictation, paired interviews, and active listening practice are a few of the ________ that require all students to participate simultaneously and actively.

Of prime importance in reading is vocabulary skill. The reader must know the meanings of enough of the words in a sentence for it to make sense and also know how to combine individual word meanings within a sentence. Once the student is past the initial stages of reading, he spends a large percentage of his time encountering new vocabulary, which can be approached in a number of ways. The teacher can give the meaning for each new word, as is common in teaching reading to non-native students. Or, also common, the student may spend hours with a dictionary writing native-language glosses into his text. For the native speaker of English, the most common form of vocabulary building is guessing from context and/or word formations.
In many settings in which English is taught as a foreign language (EFL) there are high degrees of emphasis on rote memorization. Because vocabulary development skills are seldom specifically taught, the student is not aware of the skills or their benefits. Most students have been trained to panic. Their first reaction on encountering a new word in a text is to stop and ask for a definition, even if the rest of the sentence defines it. The student of English as a foreign language cannot begin to read with full comprehension until he has been taught to conquer the unknown word by using contextual aids, that is, the formation of the word itself and the environment in which it is found.
