Each year a large number of candidates are selected by the State Education Commission and dispatched to three intensive language training centres attached to Beijing Languages Institute, Shanghai Foreign Studies University and Chengdu University of Science and Technology for pre-departure ELT training. At the end of the training period, the trainees are required to take the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test administered by the British side. Here at CUST, we focus on an interactive approach to training, particularly for reading.展开更多

This is the way my students read silently in English and it is only one of the problems they have. They are confusing reading aloud and silent reading. It will be difficult for them to use English efficiently after graduation unless they can read in different ways. This article aims to present some suggestions for discussion about teaching reading. The article will be presented in three sections: firstly, the students’ difficulties in reading; secondly, the present teaching work in colleges; thirdly, some possible suggestions for improvement. The third section is divided into four steps, each focusing on a different technique.展开更多
