33、 Today Im going to talk about using computers in education. Our college, the College of English Studies, aims to provide a comprehensive range of courses for students of English as a Foreign Language. This range from beginners courses through English for Special Purposes to preparatory courses for s

34、tudents about to attend a British university. The college is now equipped with the most sophisticated teaching aids and a first-class computer centre. We have plans to use computers in language teaching and several things are going on at the moment.In the computer centre, there are main frame comput

35、ers, a very big kind. They are already used by the administration for keeping records and making tests and this sort of thing. Now Ill particularly talk about the use of the micro or mini-computers with the TV screen. And basically the first thing were trying to do is to put all kinds of reading com

36、prehension texts and questions on the screens and the idea is that the student individually can select a test or a reading comprehension passage from a whole list, and call it up very quickly on the screen and look at it and do the answers in that particular way. Basically were using it as a sort of

37、 reading device at the moment.Lets say for example, if a student wants to practise a particular grammatical point, he just chooses it and an exercise will come up. For example, a sentence with a part missing, and the student has to choose the correct missing part. If the student gets the answer righ

38、t, then the screen immediately tells the student that, and will also tell the student why its right. If the student gets the answer wrong, the machine will explain why its wrong, and the student can then choose to have another try at the question or to go on to the next question. The first advantage

39、 is that students can choose the thing they want to practise or to learn. Secondly they can get immediate feedback, individual feedback, from the machine on whether they are making progress or not. And they can give up when they are tired or carry on if theyre not tired. They dont have to depend on

40、the rest of the class or the rest of the group.Its very advantageous. But I think most forms of teaching and most forms of learning are not possible by computer. I think the computer provides a lot of information when you want it. But it doesnt provide the essential feature in language learning, I t

41、hink, and that is the practice of speaking to another human being or human beings. Its just an extra device, thats all. Its not intended to replace teachers and I dont think it will replace teachers.填空项 1:_ （正确答案：keeping records）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：micro）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：whole）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：reading
