As Long (1985) states that tasks should involve activities that occur in daily life. When international students came to foreign countries at first, they probably have substantial academic and living difficulties. It is of practical value to provide suggestions to international students and make them to help others. Therefore, following situational authenticity (Ellis, 2009), the writer selected‘how to give suggestions’as the lesson topic. According to the criteria of Common European Framework, target-ed international students understand appropriate input about familiar activities, meanwhile, describe and provide personal experi-ence, some interpretations and reasons for personal decisions. According to Dunbar (1992) suggests that working in pair is more interactive than other grouping, while four-member grouping achieves high level of efficiency. Therefore, the lesson involved eight students for the purpose of dividing them into pair work and group cooperation.
