It consists of three sections. Section one briefly describes the views of the output-driven hypothesis with relevant theoretical explanations. Section two further illustrates how such teaching practice can be conducted in terms of the teaching objectives, teaching procedures, and methods, and assessment focuses. Section three points out the potential challenges faced by university English teachers when the hypothesis is tested展开更多

In spite of a series of reforms of CET-4, the negative impact of CET-4 remains intense. Three main reasons are probed into here. Firstly, the objective of CET-4 is ambiguous. Secondly, the test objective does not accord with teaching objective. Finally, test contents do not match well with the practical language use. To improve the present passive state of CET-4, some suggestions are given.展开更多

In order to understand the teaching objectives more, the relationship between the related activities was studied. Teachers can design the teaching plans based on teaching objective, and determine different evaluations method according to different types of teaching objectives. It will raise students more cognitive activities and promote targeted objectives teaching.展开更多
