It speaks well, perhaps, for the kindliness and amiability of the human race that most such pursuits are of

36、a gregarious nature. Assembling together; dearly we love to do this. “Neglect not the assembling of yourselves together,“ says (I think) St. Paul somewhere; and it was a superfluous piece of admonition. Neglect of this will never be numbered among the many omissions of mankind. Seeing one another; m

41、tivity which requires a high level of ability in many separate skills. Today Im going to analyse the four most important of these skills.Firstly, the student has to understand what the lecturer says as he says it. The student cannot stop the lecture in order to look up a new word or check an unfamil

42、iar sentence pattern. This puts the non-native speaker of English under a particularly severe strain. Often-as weve already seen in a previous lecture-he may not be able to recognize words in speech which he understands straightway in print. Hell also meet words in a lecture which are completely new

43、 to him. While he should, of course, try to develop the ability to infer their meaning from the context, he wont always be able to do this successfully. He must not allow failure of this kind to discourage him however. Its often possible to understand much of a lecture by concentrating solely on tho

44、se points which are most important. But how does the student decide whats important? This is in itself another skill he must try to develop It is, in fact, the second of the four skills I want to talk about today.Probably the most important piece of information in a lecture is the title itself. If t

45、his is printed (or referred to) beforehand, the student should study it carefully and make sure hes in no doubt about its meaning Whatever happens, he should make sure that lie writes it down accurately and completely. A title often implies many of the major points that will later be covered in the

46、lecture itself. It should help the student therefore to decide what the main point of the lecture will be.A good lecturer, of course, often signals whats important or unimportant. He may give direct signals or indirect signals. Many lecturers, for example, explicitly tell their audience that a point

47、 is important and that the student should write it down. Unfortunately, the lecturer whos trying to establish a friendly relationship with his audience is likely on these occasions to employ a colloquial style. He might say such things as “This is, of course, the crunch.“ or “Perhaps youd like to get it down“. Although this will help the student whos a native English-speaker, it may very well cause diffic
