17、ethods and approaches that can be utilized to fully exploit the potential of drama and theatre texts.Writers such as Maley and Duff and Wessels have pointed to the values and uses of drama:“Drama can help the teacher to achieve reality in several ways.1It can overcome the students resistance to lear

22、press themselves through the multiple voices of the differing characters.One of the drawbacks in the use of literary texts such as novels and poems is that many of them contain language forms that learners of a language find difficult to understand.This could be overcome by simplifying them,often le

23、ading to a loss of literarinessleading to criticism that the texts became pale imitations of the original writing.3The lack of suitable texts in the traditional body of literature,in my view opens the door for the inclusion of drama in language learning curricula as it tends to use much more natural

32、context;giving a personal and creative response and answering the question:does it work as literature?Finally,I would like to talk about the stages of a type b approach to introducing a drama text to a class of EFL learners.The process involves linking standard approaches in drama to approaches suit

33、able for the classroom.Classroom practice,then,may follow three stages.The first stage is the warm-u.8Standard methods in the type b approach involve warmer activities to get the learner to anticipate what theyre going to meet in the language in the text using guessing,pre-discussion,or pictures.It
