It is argued that learners’ current language problems might have been a result of their strategic learning problems. As such, diagnosing the potential problems in language learning strategies and providing support in strategic learning(the ‘how’ of learning) will not only help locate the possible causes of language deficiencies but also help learners close the linguistic gap(the ‘what’ of learning). The article also illustrates how language learning strategies can be assessed formatively. Next, two implementation issues, the teacher’s pedagogical content knowledge and student engagement after assessment feedback, are highlighted for discussion.展开更多

But, there has been much criticism of the validity and reliability of summative assessment from researchers. Presently, modern English teaching highlights the application of formative assessment, which puts great emphasis on the process development, and promotion of students' learning. It also serves as an import-ant part of the current curriculum reform. Therefore, this paper is an attempt to make further researches on formative assessment of EFL students from aspects of theory and practice.展开更多

Tectonically located on the eastern margin of the northern Tibet geodepression. and nearly 500 km of the Himalayan Yarlung Zangbo plate subduction zone of nearly E-W trend. it is a relatively typical intracontinental rejuvenated platform-type porphyry copper belt. Ore-bearing porphyry masses in the belt mainly represented by monzogranite-porphyry occurring as stocks in variegated sandshale of the lower Upper Triassic Jiapila Fromation and its overlying and underlying copper-bearing strata. They are characterized by enrichment in K. CI and LREE. abundant fluid inclusions and a distinct porphyroblastic texture. The oxygen. hydrogen. strotium. lead and sulfur isotopic values of the rock show the feature of crust-mantle mixing.The Orebodies are plpe-shaped stratoid; the mineralization is dominated by Cu and Mo, accompanied by Fe. Co. Au. Ag. Bi. W. Pb. Zn. and Pt-group elements. Alteration is strong. marked mainly by potassic alteration, silicification. skarnization and propylitization. The formation of this type of deposit largely progressed through two stages. The first stage was the stage of formation of Cu-bearing source beds. It occurred in the Triassic. when a transgressive copper-bearing formation was deposited on the western margin of the Qamdo Bay. which was represented by intermediate-acid volcanic rocks and variegated sandshale in the lower part. dolomitic carbonate rocks in the middle and black carbonaceous sandshale in the upper part. In the second stage. composite porphyry copper deposits were formed. This stage took place in the Paleogene. when this district was in a stage of platform rejuvenation. forming a series of NNW-trending deep faults. so that Na, K. Cl. H2O and CO2-rich hydrothermal fluids from the depths were injected into the upper crust and replaced and melted copper-bearing sialic rocks of the upper crust. e. g. the Triassic copper-bearing rock series in the Yulong area. to form porphyroblastic cooper-bearing intermediate-acid porphyry.展开更多
