Which do you think will contribute more to learning English,
listening and reading extensively or listening and reading
intensively? I think we tend to get bored with materials
when we use learning materials repeatedly while we cannot
improve vocabulary building through extensive reading.
Could you tell me how we can get right mix of
intensive and extensive learning? Thanks in advance.
Thanks, irori. That's a good one.
I'd like to define intensive reading and extensive reading.
Extensive reading
Submitted by Carolyn Cho on 31 March, 2008 - 11:23.
Extensive reading involves learners reading texts for enjoyment
and to develop general reading skills.
It can be compared with intensive reading,
which means reading in detail with specific learning aims and tasks.
Example
A teacher reads a short story with learners,
but does not set them any tasks except to read and listen.
In the classroom
Extensive reading is often overlooked,
especially as a classroom activity.
Teachers often feel it is not an effective use of class time
or are just uncomfortable with the extended silence.
Learners can be encouraged to read extensively
by setting up a class library,
encouraging review writing,
and incorporating reading of books into the syllabus,
and dedicating some class time to quiet reading.

Intensive reading involves learners reading in detail
with specific learning aims and tasks.
It can be compared with extensive reading,
which involves learners reading texts for enjoyment and to develop general reading skills.
Example
The learners read a short text and put events from it into chronological order.
In the classroom
Intensive reading activities include skimming a text for specific information
to answer true or false statements or filling gaps in a summary,
scanning a text to match headings to paragraphs,
and scanning jumbled paragraphs and then reading them carefully to put them into the correct order.

（本文）I wasn’t expecting anyone waiting here at the airport for me.
この文章では，過去進行形で表現していますが，
現在完了形や過去完了形でも良いような気がしますが，意味合いは大きく変わるのでしょうか？
おそらく，expectする状況が，ある期間継続していたことを表現していたと予測されますが・・・ 。

この文章では，未来進行形と未来形を使い分けているようですが，
どちらもその日の予定を表現していると思いますが，
時制を変化させるのはなぜでしょうか？

Hi Kanzaki san,
It's muggy and sunny today, isn't it?
I have heard that it is useful to read Bible and Mother Goose to understand English. Did you read them with appreciation?
Thank you for your response.
“Birth center” can mean lots of things. The birth center she works at is accredited and the midwives have hospital privileges and collaboration and transportation agreements with a local hospital. They refer out to OBs and MFMs and risk people out appropriately. Totally different than a couple of hack CPMs in a room.

I don’t know if it’s just me or if everyone else encountering issues with your website. It seems like some of the written text in your content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This may be a problem with my browser because I’ve had this happen before. Cheers

My wife and i felt so glad Albert managed to deal with his studies from the precious recommendations he discovered while using the weblog. It is now and again perplexing to simply be offering guidance some people might have been selling. We really know we’ve got you to be grateful to for that. Those illustrations you have made, the simple blog menu, the friendships you will give support to promote ? it’s most astonishing, and it is making our son and us know that this subject matter is awesome, which is certainly seriously vital. Thank you for the whole lot!
