Part B (10 points)
You are going to read a text about e-mail, followed by a list of detail explanations or cited statements. Choose the best related ones from the list for each numbered subheading. There is an extra one which you do not need to use.
(41) Extends Language Learning Time and Place:
As many researchers have noted, e-mail extends what one can do in the classroom, since it provides a venue for meeting and communicating in the foreign language outside of class. Because of the nature of e-mails, FL learners do not have to be in a specific classroom at a particular time of day in order to communicate with others in the foreign language. They can log in and write e-mails from the comfort of their own room, from a public library or from a cyber-cafe, and these spatial possibilities increase the amount of time they can spend both composing and reading in the foreign language in a communicative context.
(42) Provides a Context for Real-world Communication and Authentic Interaction:
By connecting FL speakers outside of the classroom, e-mail also provides a context for communicating with other speakers in authentic communicative situations. Interaction via e-mail lends a feeling of reality to students' communicative efforts that may seem artificial in a classroom setting. This communicative interaction is much like spoken language because of its informal and interactive nature. Yet, unlike face-to-face communication, e-mail is in written form. and this can serve the language learner well.
(43) Expands Topics Beyond Classroom-based Ones:
Language teachers often have to follow a rigorous schedule in terms of content and/or grammatical topics to be presented and practiced in a semester or marking period. Large chunks of time can rarely be spared for free communication.
(44) Promotes Student-centered Language Learning:
In e-mail communication, FL learners can experience increased control over their own learning, since they can choose the topic and change the direction of the discussion. The end goal is to communicate with another person in the FL rather than to produce a mistake-free composition.
(45) Encourages Equal Opportunity Participation:
Beauvois (1997) reported that computer-mediated communication increased total class participation to 100%.
Connects Speakers Quickly and Cheaply
E-mail allows students to communicate with native speakers of the target language without the high cost of traveling a broad (Hedderich 1997; Roakes, 1998). Before the advent of the Internet, it was not possible to communicate so immediately and so frequently with native speakers or with other learners.
