21、k about your recent study experiences and congratulations to you both in doing so well in the first semester exams. Id like to discuss with you the value of the English for Academic Purposes course you did here last year before starting your university course. Spiros, if I could start with you, what
22、 parts of the programme have now proved to be particularly valuable to you?S: I think that having to do a seminar presentation really helped me. For example, a couple of weeks ago in our marketing subject, when it was my turn to give presentation, I felt quite confident. Of course, I was still nervo
23、us but because I had done one before, I knew what to expect. Also, I know I was well prepared and I had practised my timing. In fact, I think that in relation to some of the other people in my group, I did quite a good job because my overall style was quite professional.Pro: What about you Hiroko?H:
24、 Mmm, thats interesting. In my group, I was really surprised by the way students did their presentations - they just read the notes aloud. Can you believe that? They didnt worry about their presentation style or keeping eye contact with their audience - and I remember that these things were really s
25、tressed to us in the course here.Pro: So, how did you approach your presentation Hiroko?H: Well, to speak frankly, I read my notes too. At the time, it was a relief to do it this way, but actually when I had finished I didnt fell any real sense of satisfaction. I didnt feel positive about the experi
26、ence at all.S: Thats a pity. You know although I was pleased with my presentation, Im not so pleased with my actual performance right now in the tutorials - during the whole semester Ive not said anything in our tutorial discussions. Not a word.H: Really, Spiros, why is that? Do the other students t
27、alk too much? S: Its partly that, but its mostly because I have had no confidence to speak out. Their style of speaking is so differen - its not the style we were used to during the course. There are so many colloquialism（白话，口语，俗话，方言）， they not very polite and sometimes they seems to be no order in
28、their discussion. Also they are very familiar with each other, so because they know each others habits, they can let each other into the discussion.H: Youre right, Spiros. Ive experienced that too.H: For most of this semester, Ive said absolutely nothing in two tutorials. But recently Ive been tryin
29、g to speak up more and I just jump in. And Ive noticed an interesting thing. Ive noticed that if they thought my point was interesting and new, then the next time they actually asked for my opinion, and then it was much easier for me to be part of the discussion.S: Thats great, Hiroko. I hope that h
30、appens for me next semester-Ill have to work hard to find some interesting points. What help you to find these ideas?H: I think that one thing that helped me with this was the reading. Ive had to do so much reading this semester just to help me to make sense of the lectures. At first I couldnt under
31、stand what the lecturers were talking about, so I had to turn to the books and journals. Every night I read for hours, using the lists of references that were given, and I made pages of notes. At breakfast, I read and read my notes again. This habit has helped me to follow the ideas in the lectures,
32、 and its also given me some ideas to use in the tutorials.S: But I did so much readings anyway- I dont think theres any time left over for anything extra. My reading speed is still quite slow, though Im much better at dealing with vocabulary than I used to be.Pro: What else do you think we could add to the course program to help with this reading problem?S: Er, theres not really anything because its my problem. I remember we were
