learn English as a second language,they learn formalEnglish.Unfortunately,learning it like this tends to make you feel distant and bored.The truth is,most people in English-speaking countries dont speak to each other in such a formal way.Theyspeak in a casual way to their friends and families.When speaking casually,people tend to use alot of informal or colloquial words,and also shorten and connect their phrases.They say thingslike Hey,whats up?or Hey!Watch been Dion?These expressions are both common andnatural,and make you seem like a native speaker.Using them may make people more interested intalking to you.This type of English is more like what you will hear in movies and TV shows.Speaking this way makes native speakers feel more relaxed and you will sound like a friendlyperson who speaks English well.You got that,buddy?Formal formally casual common native relaxed friendlyTask 4:An AnnouncementAttention closing five checkouts leaveVI.Further Listening and SpeakingListeningTask 1:University LifeUniversity life is a new and different experience for me.First of all,living at the university givesme a sense of responsibility,of being on my own.My parents arent around to say,“No,yourenot going out tonight.I decide everything for myself.Being around lots of friendly people isanother aspect I like about university life.On my first say,when I arrived on campus,I was a bitconfused about where I was going.An upperclassman noticed out I was looking for my dorm,hesaid,“Oh,just follow me;thats where Im going.Now,1 can really say that I feel comfortable inthe dorm because there are so many friendly people around to talk with.Finally,I LOVEHAVING Fridays off;I would not be able to deal with five days of classes in a row.How did I doit in high school?I love sleeping in on Fridays.I guess Im sort of a party animal,but it seems likeI go out every Thursday night.It also seems like I dont get home until early the next dayl myhead hits the pillow and 1 dont move until Friday afternoon.1.new and different2.on his own3.a bit confused4.talk with5.sleep inTask 2:Key to Learning EnglishI think one of the most important keys to learning English id to establish a regular study program,like planning a few minutes every morning around breakfast time.This idea may sound a little toosimple to the learners,because they took English in high school for a quite a few years,but theydidnt become proficient speakers of the language.As a matter of fact I do not mean that we canbecome fluent speakers with just a few minutes here and there,but following a regular andconsistent course of study can help us on the way to language mastery.In other words,peopleneed to plan out their study by setting realistic and attainable goals from the beginning.Somepeople get caught up in the craze of learning the language on 30 days,only to give up when theycant perform up to their expectations.And small steps little by little,are the key.For example,planning to learn to use them activelyis far better than learning 30 and forgetting them the nextday.1.T2.F 3.F 4.F 5.TTask 3:Listening EffectivelyThrough it is 50%of everyday communication,listening,it seems,is the least taught.Listening ismore than just hearing:it requires understanding.In an educational setting,listening effectively iscritical.Effective listening results in doing the right assignment,doing the assignment correctly,and taking notes effectively.Doing these activities well results in learning and,most of the time,good grades.In a professional setting,listening is also critical.When you receive an oral message,your response must be correct.If you fail to listen to customers or clients,you may lose theirbusiness,and your job!Ina personal setting,listening effectively deepens your relationships.When we listen to someone,we say“You are important”without ever speaking a word.When wefail to listen,not only do we not receive the message,but we send the message that we are justplain dumb.1.B 2.D 3.A 4.B 5.DUnit2IL Listening SkillsIdentifying Numbers1.M:The stadium looks pretty big.How many people does it seat?W:It holds around
