英文研究論文發表》廖柏森︰大學應加強研究生英文學術口語訓練

【本文選自眾文圖書之《英文研究論文發表─口語報告指引》】

This noon I attended the class reunion of 314, who graduated last summer. Four teachers and about 20 students were present. The moment we saw each other, we hugged. In fact, I have seen most of them once or twice during the half year since they left school. However, a reunion brings everyone together, giving a feeling of family.

李偉文：守紀律 心靈才有力量

【聯合報╱記者薛荷玉】2010/02/05

Late yesterday night, when I checked if there was something good at the Website TED, I came across JK Rowling's 2008 Harvard Commencement Speech. Listening to it for around 20 minutes, I was deeply attracted to her enlightening words.

Then I found this website at which you can listen to and read the speech at the same time. My suggestion is that you first listen to the speech without looking at the script, trying to jot down some important points. Then for the second time, you read the script as you listen.

In today's UDN vocabulary learning column, Mr. Chen mentions learning vocabulary for specific life situations, for example, words we need at the bank. Besides, he reminds us to pay attention to English words around us. I remember Mr. Chang Chieh-ying mentioned in his book that he once learned around 500 English words at a single visit to an exhibition. Wow!

大考過後 滿地傳單…

The following is a video of some interviews about one of this year’s Chinese writing tasks. The examinees were asked to write on the topic “A Monologue of a Floating Log.” The topic is quite philosophical. Lovely!

99年大學學測作文題目是「漂流木的獨白」，兩位試考生台大電機系學生馬惟九及法律系學生張簡映庭，談他們如何發揮這個題目，北一女國文老師唐慧文則說這個題目深淺自如，任何程度的考生都容易發揮。

Yesterday the LifeType bloggins system went wrong. I couldn't go to the administration page. The following is the entry I posted on my WordPress blog.

Yesterday, the two-day 2010 SAT was over. English was tested. Click on the link and you can find the test items.

Shihjen (張世仁), a student in Class 209 who came in second place in last year's Taipei High School English Speech Contest (see http://www.tiec.tp.edu.tw/lifetype/post/1130/33122), emailed me on Jan. 25 a list of some of the books she had read. There are altogether 38 titles on the list, including literature, teenage pleasures, poems, novels, etc. As she mentioned in the mail, her point of listing the books is that reading really matters in language learning. Click on the link, and you can download the list. It's a good reference.

This noon I have a happy gathering with my dear friend Annie (詹麗馨老師) at Tasty. We saw each other about twice a year.

Life is a series of decision making. The following UDN article teaches us to make the right choice and avoid going astray. I like Google's motto, "Don't be evil."
