Different times, different methods
Current teaching practice is the direct result of the
acquisition-versus-learning debate. Also, both abstract theory
and practical techniques have been discussed, have gone
in and out of fashion, and have influenced what was and is
included in classrooms and teaching materials.
In the 1990s, for example, there was considerable
discussion about the Lexical Approach. In the 1970s, methods
such as the Silent Way were advocated, and although they
may not be used much any more – certainly not as they
were originally envisaged – still some of the techniques
they included have been incorporated into modern teaching
practice.
Amongst the plethora of ideas and techniques which
have been offered over the years, some trends have had, and
continue to have a significant impact on how languages are
taught today.

Implied in any consideration of the role of styles and
strategies in learning a second language are three linked
concepts: autonomy, awareness, and action. These three “As”
of learner development have taken on significance in recent
years, especially with increasing pedagogical emphasis
on learner-centered language teaching (Wenden,2002). A
review of the history of language teaching will reveal some
interesting “changing winds and shifting sands”. One way
of looking at this history is to consider the extent to which
methodological trends have emphasized the respective roles
of the teacher and the learner. Until some of the “designer”
methods appeared in the 1970s, most of language teaching
methodology was teacher centered. Students entered a
classroom, sat down dutifully in their desks, and waited for
the teacher to tell them what to do. Those directives might
have been to translate a passage, to memorize a rule, or to
repeat a dialogue. Then, the profession seemed to discover
the value of learner autonomy in the form of allowing learners
to do things like initiate oral production, solve problems in
small groups, practice language forms in pairs, and practice
using the language outside of the classroom.
The literature on the topic raises some caution flags, though.
Schmenk (2005) appropriately described the nonuniversality
of the concept of autonomy, and Pennycook (1994) warned us
about the potential cultural imperialism involved in assuming
every culture equally values and promotes autonomy,
especially in educational institutions. For language teaching
in sub-Saharan Africa, Sonaiya (2002, p. 106) questioned
“the global validity of the so-called autonomous method of
language learning ... which has obvious origins in European
and North American traditions of individualism.” However,
some recent studies are more encouraging, underscoring the
need for teachers to be sensitive to the cultural background
of students.

Technology has always been at the forefront of human
education. From the days of carving figures on rock walls to
today, when most students are equipped with several portable
technological devices at any given time, technology continues
to push educational capabilities to new levels. In looking at
where educational methods and tools have come from to
where they are going in the future, technology’s importance in
the classroom is evident now more than ever.
In the Colonial years, wooden paddles with printed
lessons, called Horn-Books, were used to assist students in
learning verses. Over 200 years later, in 1870, technology
advanced to include the Magic Lantern, a primitive version of
a slide projector that projected images printed on glass plates.
By the time World War I ended, around 8000 lantern slides
were circulating through the Chicago public school system.
By the time the Chalkboard came around in 1890, followed by
the pencil in 1900, it was clear that students were hungry for
more advanced educational tools.
Examples of these are: in the 1920s, radio sparked an
entirely new wave of learning; on-air classes began popping
up for any student within listening range. Next came the
overhead projector in 1930, followed by the ballpoint pen
in 1940 and headphones in 1950. Videotapes arrived on
the scene in 1951, creating a new and exciting method of
instruction.
The pre-computer years were formative in the choices
made for computers in the years following. Immediate
response-type systems (video, calculator, Scantron) had
become necessary, and quick production of teaching
materials, using the photocopier, had become a standard.
Teachers needed new methods of instruction and testing, and
students were looking for new ways to communicate, study,
and learn.
Although the first computers were developed in the
‘30s, everyday use computers were introduced in the ‘80s.
When IBM introduced its first personal computer in 1981, the
educational world knew that it was on the verge of greatness.
The foundation of immediate learning capabilities had been
laid. Time magazine declared, “it is the end result of a
technological revolution that has been in the making for four
decades and is now, quite literally, hitting home.”

A lack of women at decision-making tables around the
world is hindering progress when it comes to tackling conflicts or
improving health and standard of living, the highest-ranking
woman in the UN (United Nations) has said.
“We’re half the population. And what we bring to the
table is incredibly important and it’s missing”, said Amina
Mohammed, the UN deputy secretary general. “I think it’s why
mostly our human development indices are so bad, why we have
so many conflicts and we’re unable to come out of the conflicts.”
Since her appointment in 2017, Mohammed has been a
constant voice in pushing back against the under-representation
of women in politics, diplomacy and even the UN general
assembly. Her efforts have helped cast a spotlight on the fact that
women remain relegated to the margins of power around the
world; last year the global proportion of female lawmakers stood
at 26.9%, according to Switzerland’s Inter-Parliamentary Union.
Speaking to The Guardian, Mohammed said “flexing
muscle and testosterone” often dominated at tables of power
around the world. “This win, win, win at all costs — I think that
would change if women were at the table”, she said.
She acknowledged that the world had seen a handful of
female leaders who had not used their position to advocate for
greater peace or conflict resolution. “Fair point, we see women in
power and they’re sometimes the image of men”, she said. But
she described it as unfair to judge women on an individual basis
while they were still within the confines of a system dominated
by men. “We don’t judge men that way.”
Mohammed highlighted how many parts of society still
view women in power as “about taking away, rather than adding”
value. “And we have to change that mentality”, she said.
“We kept looking at the Band-aid: put the women in
office, let’s have affirmative action. And we never connected the
dots for women themselves to build the constituencies and to go
out and vote”, she said. “So we have to have a conversation with
women first. Because if we’re doing this for women, should it not
be by women?”
Ashifa Kassam. Lack of women at global tables of power hinders progress, says top UN official.
In: The Guardian, 19/6/2024. Internet:: <www.theguardian.com.> (adapted).
Based on the previous text, judge the following item.
In the excerpt ‘And we never connected the dots for women themselves to build the constituencies’ (second sentence of the last paragraph) the phrase ‘to build the constituencies’ functions as an adverb that modifies ‘connected’.

DODGER DILEMMA
Jammie Dodgers unveils new flavour with an 'exotic twist'... and fans are divided
Biscuit lovers had mixed reactions upon learning there was a new Mango and Passionfruit flavour available to buy at supermarkets.
The 140g packet of biccies is 90p at Sainsbury's and just one of a range of new flavours of the iconic brand.
The flavour is mango and passionfruit. Credit: Facebook
A photo of the mango and passionfruit Jammie Dodgers was shared to the Newfoods UK social media pages where reactions where mixed.
"Wish they would just stick to original!!!! More jam!!!!!!!!" wrote one person.
Another added: "Oh yum."
A third commented: "Tasteless."
And a fourth reacted: "We need to get these."
A spokesperson for Fox Burton's which makes Jammie Dodgers said they expect the new flavours to fly off the shelf.
"We are very excited about these new flavours and expect them to do well in market," the spokesperson told The Sun.
Another of the unique flavours available at supermarkets is cherry, apple and blackcurrant, and strawberry Jammie Dodgers.
Last year, the brand raised eyebrows when shoppers found a re-released banana version of Jammie Dodgers.
The banana flavouring replaces the classic jam filling that Brits have grown to love over the years.
The yellow-flavoured biscuits were first launched in the UK in July 2022 inspired by the Minions film, The Rise of Gru.
It was not the first new flavour the biscuit company has tried - other tempting flavours have been launched such as cherry and apple.

TEXTO III - How the Minnesota Shootings Suspect Was Caught12
After an intense two-day manhunt, Minnesota police captured Vance Boelter, 57, the suspect
accused of shooting two state lawmakers and their spouses. The arrest took place on Sunday
evening in a rural field near Minneapolis. Despite being armed at the time, Mr. Boelter was taken
into custody without the use of force, according to official reports.
The case began early Saturday morning when police responded to a shooting at the home of
State Senator John Hoffman. Concerned that the suspect might target other political figures,
officers quickly went to the residence of Representative Melissa Hortman. Upon their arrival, Mr.
Boelter opened fire on them before escaping on foot through a golf course located behind the
house. This incident marked the beginning of what authorities called the largest manhunt in
Minnesota's history.
Throughout the weekend, more than 100 officers and nearly 20 SWAT teams were deployed
across Sibley County, a largely rural area southwest of Minneapolis. Law enforcement agencies
worked together, setting up a temporary command center in a nearby parking lot to coordinate
search operations.
The breakthrough in the search came on Sunday afternoon when officers discovered Mr.
Boelter’s car and hat abandoned on a remote stretch of road. This discovery significantly narrowed
the search area. Later, an officer reported seeing someone, believed to be the suspect, running
into a wooded area nearby.
Further confirmation came when a local resident provided footage from a trail camera
installed on private property. The image captured on the camera showed a person matching Mr.
Boelter’s description. Acting on this evidence, police established a one-square-mile perimeter,
deploying drones and police dogs to assist in tracking the suspect’s movements.
Using aerial surveillance, officers spotted Mr. Boelter crawling through thick shrubs. Drones
tracked him from above, allowing SWAT teams to converge on his location without engaging in a
violent confrontation. Authorities emphasized that despite the suspect being armed, the arrest was
made peacefully and without incident.
Following the capture, a photo was released showing Mr. Boelter standing in the field where
he was apprehended. The image was edited to obscure the faces of the arresting officers for
privacy and security reasons. At the command center, law enforcement officials celebrated the
successful end to the operation.
Investigators later praised the rapid response and coordination among different police
departments. Officials noted that the quick decision by Brooklyn Park officers to check
Representative Hortman’s home shortly after the first shooting may have prevented further
violence and shortened the duration of the manhunt.

Because the culture of any community has many facets and
manifestations, it would be practically impossible to deal with all
of them in the classroom and prepare students for the many
situations that they might encounter in the course of their
functioning in ESL/EFL environments. However, many important
aspects of teaching the second culture can be brought forth and
addressed via classroom instruction, and some of these are
discussed here. The most important long-term benefits of
teaching culture may be to provide learners with the awareness
and the tools that will allow them to achieve their academic,
professional, social, and personal goals and become successful in
their daily functioning in L2 environments.

William Shakespeare (23 April 1564 – 23 April 1616),
who was an English playwright, poet and actor, is regarded
as the greatest writer in the English language and one of the
most famous in the history of humanity. He was very fond of
creating words, of which Arch-villain is an example. He also
created words by attaching prefixes or suffixes to existing
phrases. In Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare popped ‘un’ in
front of ‘comfortable’ to create a word that’s now used every
day by people around the world.

Read the text to answer question:
It is suggested that the field of language teaching has moved away from a reliance on prescriptive methods towards a
more nuanced understanding of the complexities of language learning. For example, Richards and Rodgers (1986) note
that there have been calls to abandon the search for a single
“supermethod” and to instead focus on equipping teachers
with “a repertoire of methods and skills that can be used selectively in different contexts”. This reflects a move away from
the idea that there is one “right” way to teach language, and
towards an approach that values flexibility, adaptability, and a
recognition of the diverse contexts in which language learning
takes place (Richards, 2001).
Realistically speaking, each method has its own advantages and disadvantages; up till now, no method has been
empirically proven the best for all language educators to blindly adopt without discussion. For example, the current great
enthusiasm for (and wide adoption of) the Communicative
Language Teaching (CLT) method in Egypt can be attributed to the failure of the previously adopted method (i.e. the
Grammar-Translation Method) to meet the national language
learning goals. It failed to develop a language learner who can
communicate properly in English. This does not mean that the
CLT will stay forever, especially in this Information and Communication Technology-dominated age (ICT) that has been

Read the text to answer question:
Language learning styles and strategies are among the
main factors that help determine how – and how well – our
students learn a second or foreign language. The term L2
is used in this text to refer to either a second or a foreign
language, following the tradition in our field.
Learning styles are the general approaches – global or
analytic, auditory or visual – that students use in acquiring
a new language or in learning any other subject. These
styles are “the overall patterns that give general direction to
learning behavior” (Cornett 1983, p. 9). Of great relevance
is this statement: “Learning style is the biologically and
developmentally imposed set of characteristics that make the
same teaching method wonderful for some and terrible for
others” (Dunn and Griggs 1988, p. 3).
Learning strategies are defined as “specific actions,
behaviors, steps, or techniques – such as seeking out
conversation partners, or giving oneself encouragement
to tackle a difficult language task – used by students to
enhance their own learning” (Scarcella and Oxford 1992, p.
63). When the learner consciously chooses strategies that
fit his or her learning style and the L2 task at hand, these
strategies become a useful tool-kit for active, conscious, and
purposeful self-regulation of learning. Learning strategies can
be classified into six types: cognitive, metacognitive, memoryrelated, compensatory, affective, and social.
(M. Celce-Murcia, 2001. Adaptado)
In the excerpt from the first paragraph “The term L2 is
used in this text to refer to either a second or a foreign
language”, the terms in bold show the use of the paired
conjunctions “either … or”. Sentences with paired
conjunctions require parallel structures. Identify the
alternative containing both a correct pair of conjunctions
and correct parallel sentence structure.

Read the following extract to answer question.
A friend of mine who is an orchestral conductor was
asking me (early in our acquaintance) about what I did for
a living. When I told him that apart from other activities, I
wrote books about how to teach English he said ‘Books in
the plural? Surely once you’ve written one, there’s nothing
more to say!’ I wanted to reply that he had just argued himself
out of a job (I mean, how many performances of Beethoven
symphonies have there been in the twenty-first century
alone?), but someone else laughed at his question, another
musician made a different comment, the conversation moved
on, and so Martin-the-conductor’s flippant enquiry evaporated
in the convivial atmosphere of a British pub.
But his question was a good one. Surely we know how
to teach languages? After all, people have been doing it
successfully for two thousand years or more, and some
aspects of teaching in the past have probably not changed
that much. But other things have, and continue to change.
Which is (I suppose) why every time I re-examine past
assumptions about teaching, I find myself questioning and
reinterpreting things I thought were fixed. And of course, I am
not alone in this. We all do it all the time – or at least we do if
we haven’t closed our minds off from the possibility of change
and renewal.
Language teaching, perhaps more than many other
activities, reflects the times it takes place in. Language is
about communication, after all, and perhaps that is why
philosophies and techniques for learning languages seem to
develop and change in tune with the societies which give rise
to them. Teaching and learning are very human activities; they
are social just as much as they are (in our case) linguistic.
But it’s not just society that changes and evolves. The
last decades have seen what feels like unprecedented
technological change. The Internet has seen to that, and
other educational technology has not lagged behind. And it’s
exciting stuff. I’ve tried to reflect that excitement and newness
in parts of this new edition.
