前言
2004年,教育部制定了《大學(xué)英語課程教學(xué)要求》,提出“大學(xué)英語的教學(xué)目標(biāo)是培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的英語綜合應(yīng)用能力,特別是聽說能力,使他們在今后工作和社會交往中能用英語有效地進(jìn)行口頭和書面的信息交流”?! 「鶕?jù)上述的教學(xué)要求,大學(xué)英語這門課程教學(xué)的中心任務(wù),就是培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的“英語綜合應(yīng)用能力?!比欢@種綜合應(yīng)用能力的核心又是什么呢?語言教育學(xué)家海默斯(Hymes)從語言認(rèn)知和語言教學(xué)角度出發(fā),對喬姆斯基(Chomsky)提出的語言能力(lan——guage competence)的概念做了釋義和擴(kuò)展,認(rèn)為語言交際能力(the communicative com——petence)具有四個組成部分,即可能性(possibility)——生成合乎語法的句子的能力;可行性(feasibility)——生成能夠為人腦所理解的句子的能力;適宜性(appropriate——ness)——在具體的社會變化場合準(zhǔn)確使用語言形式的能力;行事性(performance)——使用語言表達(dá)思想的行為或事物。后來,西方的一些語言教育學(xué)者和專家們就依據(jù)海默斯的觀點,擬定出了相應(yīng)的語言交際功能教學(xué)大綱、意念功能大綱和情景交際大綱等。迄今為止,在我國大學(xué)英語教育界,按照蔡基剛教授的說法,已經(jīng)編出和推出了四代大學(xué)英語教材,而當(dāng)前呼之欲出的該是第五代大學(xué)英語教材了?! τ诘谖宕髮W(xué)英語教材該如何編寫,眾多的名師大家意見不一。在我們這個人口眾多的國家,大學(xué)入學(xué)新生的英語基礎(chǔ)參差不齊。而目前市場上出現(xiàn)的大學(xué)英語教材,已有多種。雖然眾多學(xué)者歷盡艱辛,但對目前使用的教材,大家普遍的反映是練習(xí)編得越來越多,課本編得越來越厚,配套輔助教材多得無力應(yīng)付,教師和學(xué)生都感到不堪重負(fù)。

章節(jié)摘錄
As a child——and as an adult as well——Bill was untidy. It has been said that in orderto emmteraet this, Mary drew up weekly clothing plans for him. On Mondays he mightgo to school in blue, on Tuesdays in green, on Wednesdays in brown, on Thursdays inblack, and so on. Weekend meal schedules might also be planned in detail. Everythingis arranged in time, at work or during his leisure time.2 Dinner table discussions in the Gatess family home were always lively and educa-tional. "It was a rich environment in which to learn," Bill remembered.3 Bills contemporaries, even at the age, recognized that he was exceptional. Everyyear, he and his friends would go to summer camp. Bill especially liked swimming andother sports. One of his summer camp friends recalled, "He was never a nerd or a goofor the kind of kid you didnt want in your team. We all knew Bill was smarter than us.Even back then, when he was nine or ten years old, he talked like an adult and couldexpress himself in ways that none of us understood".4 Bill was also well ahead of his classmates in mathematics and science. He needed togo to a school that challenged him to Lakeside——an all-boys school for exceptionalstudents. It was Seattles most exclusive school and was noted for its rigorous academicdemands, a place where "even the dumb kids were smart. "5 Lakeside allowed students to pursue their own interests, to whatever extent theywished. The school prided itself on making conditions and facilities available that wouldenable all of its students to reach their full potential. It was the ideal environment forsomeone like Bill Gates.
