Step 5 Discussion Look at the following three questions and discuss with your partner to exchange your opinions. 1. Can you think of other ways that inform- ation can be exchanged? Besides the language forms above, we still have some other ways to exchange ideas or information. For example, in ancient times, Chinese people relayed fire signals at night and smoke signals in the day from one Great Wall watchtower to another so that war messages could be rapidly sent over Great distances. Nowadays, people use the language of flowers to communicate meaning. rose=love tulip=formal announcement of love forget-me-not=keeping me in your memory 2. Do you think English is important? Why or why not? Although Chinese is the most spoken language, English is the most widely used around the world. It’s useful to learn English if you want to travel, do business or study abroad. What’s More, in 2008, the 29th Olympic Games will be held in Beijing. We are learning English to welcome people from other parts of the world. Now it’s reported that students in some primary schools are required to learn English even in Grade 1, which I don’t think is necessary. Primary school is a key stage for young children to acquire their mother tongue. Starting to learn another language too early may hinder the first language acquisition. In my opinion, children should learn the mother tongue well first. If we can not speak our own language well, how can we keep our own culture alive. 3. Do you have any effective methods for studying the English language to share with your classmates? When I began to learn English in primary school, my English teacher introduced many English songs and simple poems, which made learning English interesting and helped me develop a good sense of the language. 2.
