Many studies about language learning ask the question: What makes a good language learner?
There are some things that good language learners do and some things they don’t do. Here are some of the most useful suggestions from studies:
• Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. People often get things wrong. Good language learners notice their mistakes and learn from them.
• Do group activities. People use language to communicate with other people. A good language learner always looks for opportunities to talk with other students.
• Make notes during every class. Notes help you to remember new language. Look at your notes when you do your homework.
• Use a dictionary. Good language learners often use dictionaries to check the meaning of words they don’t know. They also make their own vocabulary lists.
• Think in the language you’re learning outside the classroom. When you’re shopping or walking down the street, remember useful words and phrases. Sometimes, when you’re at home, say new words to practise your pronunciation.
• Do extra practice. Test and improve your language, reading and listening skills with self-study material. You can find a lot of this online.
• Imagine yourself speaking in the language. Many good language learners can see and hear themselves speaking in the language. This helps their motivation.
• Enjoy the process. Good language learners have fun with the language. Watch a TV series or film, listen to songs, play video games or read a book. It’s never too late to become a good language learner.

The expression learner is closest in meaning to

Selecione uma alternativa A) student. B) teaching. C) knowledge. D) acquisition.

Resolução comentada

'Learner' é quem aprende: aluno/estudante.

O sufixo -er forma o agente da ação: learner é quem aprende (learn + er). O sinônimo mais próximo é student.

Análise das alternativas

B (teaching = ensino) e C (knowledge = conhecimento) não designam uma pessoa. D (acquisition = aquisição) nomeia um processo, e não quem o realiza.

Referência: Vocabulário: formação de agentivos com o sufixo -er.

Another way of saying “It’s never too late to become a good language learner” is

Selecione uma alternativa A) Even if you have had trouble studying languages for a long time, you can still become a good learner. B) If you had trouble studying languages for the last years, that’s too bad, because the process tends to get worse. C) There is a period in life in which people tend to learn better. If you are 50 or more, you will probably find it hard to learn some languages. D) It’s never too late to teach good learners. It’s very easy to work with them and you can do this at any time in life, specially if you are teaching English.

Managing globalization: if it’s here to stay, what do we know?
Daniel Altman

Two decades have passed since the word “globalization” started showing up with any frequency in discussions of business and economics. At first, the focus was on Western companies trying to compete with cheaper, sometimes better imports from Japan, South Korea, China and other countries. It was a straight fight: the battle lines were drawn along each country’s borders.
Later on, things become more complex. Asian __________ started designing and assembling products in the West. Western companies opened up new fronts by sending jobs abroad - not just in manufacturing but in service industries as well.
At the turn of the millennium, there was a lot of talk about whether globalization was a Good Thing or a Bad Thing. One side argued that it allowed big, multinational corporations to exploit workers in poor countries to pad their profit margins. The other side retorted that the expansion of these corporations into the developing world offered the best hope for raising living standards. One side complained that globalization was creating and destroying industries too quickly for the labor force to adjust. The other side answered that these shifts were rapidly improving the world’s ability to use its resources efficiently. Now, it’s pretty clear that globalization, be it good or bad, is an Unavoidable Thing (...)
Adapted from Sharma, Pete. Reading the News, Thomson ELT, 2007.

Write T for true and F for false, then choose the alternative with the right sequence.

According to the text, globalization

( ) has appeared in discussions involving business and economics for two decades and its a subject that people haven’t decided yet whether it is a good or a bad thing.
( ) was first focused on Western companies that brought cheaper products, better from those imported from Japan, South Korea, China and other countries.
( ) as a good thing, through the expansion of multinational corporations into the developing world, offered the best hope for rising living standards.
( ) at the turn of the millennium, became a more complex subject influenced by Asian and Western companies.

Selecione uma alternativa A) T - F - T - F B) F - T - F - T C) T - F - F - T D) F - T - T - F

Resolução comentada

Verdadeiro/falso sobre o texto de Altman: globalização como tema em debate há duas décadas.

A 1ª é verdadeira: o texto diz que 'duas décadas' se passaram desde que a palavra passou a aparecer nas discussões de negócios e economia, e que o debate sobre ser algo bom ou ruim existiu. A 3ª é verdadeira: um dos lados defendia que a expansão das corporações para o mundo em desenvolvimento era a melhor esperança de elevar o padrão de vida. A 2ª e a 4ª são falsas. A sequência correta é T-F-T-F.

Análise das alternativas

B, C e D marcam como verdadeira a 2ª (ou a 4ª) e como falsa a 1ª ou a 3ª, o que contraria o texto. A 2ª é falsa porque as empresas ocidentais competiam com importações mais baratas vindas da Ásia, e não eram elas que as traziam. A 4ª é falsa porque a complexidade surgiu 'later on', e não na virada do milênio.
