The teaching of English as a Lingua Franca
An inexorable trend in the use of global English is that
fewer interactions now involve a native speaker. Proponents
of teaching English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) suggest that the
way English is taught and assessed should reflect the needs
and aspirations of the ever-growing number of non-native
speakers who use English to communicate with other nonnatives. Understanding how non-native speakers use English
among themselves has now become a serious research area.
Different priorities in teaching English pronunciation, for
example, have been defined. Teaching certain pronunciation
features, such as the articulation of ‘th’ as an interdental
fricative, appears to be a waste of time whereas other common
pronunciation problems (such as simplifying consonant
clusters) contribute to problems of understanding. Such an
approach is allowing researchers to identify a ‘Lingua Franca
Core’ (LFC) which provides guiding principles in creating
syllabuses and assessment materials.
Unlike traditional ESL (English as Second Language), ELF
focuses also on pragmatic strategies required in intercultural
communication. The target model of English, within the ELF
framework, is not a native speaker but a fluent bilingual
speaker, who retains a national identity in terms of accent,
and who also has the special skills required to negotiate
understanding with another non-native speaker. Research is
also beginning to show how bad some native speakers are at
using English for international communication. It may be that
elements of an ELF syllabus could usefully be taught within a
mother tongue curriculum.

O aprendiz brasileiro, por influência de sua língua materna, tende a erroneamente acrescentar uma vogal a
palavras em Língua Inglesa que terminam em grupo consonantal. Dessa forma, adiciona uma nova sílaba à palavra, possivelmente dificultando a compreensão. Assinale
a alternativa correta contendo uma palavra que ilustraria
tal fenômeno.

Worldwide changes in food and eating habits
American fast food has certainly affected Korea. You can find American fast
food restaurants everywhere and many young people don’t appreciate
traditional Korean food anymore. Koreans are now using western ingredients
such as ketchup, mayonnaise and butter to cook regular meals. Salad dressing,
something we never used before, is also popular now.
The problem is that American companies sell their food along with American
culture. Manners in restaurants are not the same before. I can give you two
examples of this. Traditionally Koreans don’t use individual plates for eating
main dishes. We have always eaten from one bowl, but now some people think
that this habit is unsanitary.
Tipping is also new for us. Before, we had never rewarded good service with
money, but now we are supposed to give a tip to waiter in some restaurants. I
fear our traditional way of doing things will soon be forgotten.
By Jeong Kim, from Korea.

Not considering accents, there are some common pronunciation rules in standard
English. The final “s” in plural nouns, for example, sounds like /z/ in “trees” (l. 01), like /iz/ in “spruces”
(l. 02), and like /s/ “dumps” (l. 02). In which alternative the nouns follow the same pronunciation
rules, in the same order as in the example?
