Introduction
"English is the language of the future, the language of the computer.
You have the right to English. Make it your right!"
Benjamin Zephaniah,
(British poet, writer, actor)
Dragi tineri,
Felicitri c ai ales s urmai cursurile de limba englez din

cadrul programului A doua ans.
Nevoia de micare i informaie din lumea contemporan, dar i
necesitatea comunicrii eficiente cu cei din jur, fac ca studiul unei
limbi strine s devin un element de care nu ne putem lipsi, dac
dorim s facem fa cu succes provocrilor profesionale, dar i
personale.
n orice domeniu am lucra, se face simit nevoia de a nelege o
limb strin. Atunci cnd cltorim sau primim oaspei dintr-o ar
strin ne descurcm mult mai uor dac putem comunica ntr-o
limb de larg rspndire, cum este limba englez. n plus, cunoaterea unei limbi strine ne ajut s nelegem mai bine modul de
gndire al persoanelor de alt naionalitate i chiar s ne redescoperim pe noi nine n raport cu cellalt. Experiena nvrii unei
limbi strine v va ajuta s nvai mai uor i alte limbi strine, n
funcie de provocrile crora va trebui s le facei fa.
Acest curs v va sprijini n invarea limbii engleze prin exerciii i
activiti de comunicare care se bazeaz pe cunotine anterioare
minime. Dac nu ai nvat pn acum niciodat limba englez, nu
trebuie s v ngrijorai, pentru c profesorul vostru va adapta
leciile n funcie de cunotinele i nevoile voastre. Dac dimpotriv,
avei deja cunotine de baz, v va face plcere s v sprijinii
colegii, descoperind lucruri noi mpreun cu ei.
Fiecare dintre noi avem stiluri de nvare diferite. V sugerm
s analizai n permanen modul n care nvai: observai care
sunt activitile pe care le considerai uoare i care sunt cele care
presupun mai mult efort. Poate c nvai mai uor atunci cnd
cineva v prezint i explic clar nite reguli, sau poate c nvai
mai uor imitnd un model. Unii vor prefera activitile scrise, alii
pe cele orale, unii activitile individuale, alii pe cele n pereche sau
echip. V recomandm s facei nsemnri periodice ntr-un jurnal
de nvare, n care s notai activitile care v-au plcut, cele pe
care le-ai considerat uoare sau grele, etc. Acest lucru v va oferi
ocazia de v nregistra succesele, dar i de a trece peste dificulti.

INTRODUCTION
De asemenea, putei nota n jurnal cuvintele sau expresiile care

credei c v vor fi utile ntr-o anumit situaie.
Mai presus de toate, nu v lsai descurajai atunci cnd simii c
nu v descurcai de la bun nceput aa cum v-ai dori. Pentru a nva
o limb strin este nevoie de timp, dar i de foarte mult
perseveren. Folosii orice ocazie avei (n clas sau n situaii reale)
de a exersa cuvintele sau expresiile nvate. Pentru a v ajuta n
acest sens, fiecare lecie se ncheie cu sugestii de utilizare a noiunilor
nvate. Realiznd ideile de la seciunea Try this!" putei s v
mbogii portofoliul, care va fi evaluat la sfritul cursului.
De asemenea, pentru a v sprijini n obinerea de rezulate ct mai
bune, la finele fiecrui capitol exist o fi de autoevaluare.
Rezolvarea acesteia v va ajuta s identificai ce anume trebuie s
mai exersai.
La finalul acestui curs, vei reui s:
nelegei un text simplu ascultat sau citit;
Producei cteva mesaje simple n situaii de comunicare
uzuale (oral sau n scris);
Citii suficient de cursiv un text scurt cu glas tare.
Succes!

Este momentul s facei din nou nsemnri n jurnalul de
nvare. Pentru a comunica bine ntr-o limb strin, avem nevoie
de patru abiliti de baz: nelegerea dup auz, cititul, vorbitul i
scrisul. n care dintre cele patru abiliti simii c ai fcut
progresele cele mai mari? De care dintre cele patru abiliti avei
nevoie cel mai mult n ceea ce facei (n munc, vizite etc.)? Ce fel de
exerciii sau activiti v-ar putea ajuta s v mbuntii abilitile
de care avei nevoie cel mai mult?
nainte de evaluarea final, reluai fiecare lecie i analizai n
special seciunea introductiv "What you will learn" i cea final
"Check this!". Acest lucru v va ajuta s identificai ariile n care nu
v simii nc destul de bine pregtit, permindu-v s v
canalizai eforturile ntr-acolo. Reluai apoi exerciiile din fiele de
auto-evaluare. Dac ai dat deja teste de parcurs, revedei
corecturile i explicaiile profesorului dumneavoastr. Asigurai-v
c le-ai neles. Dac e nevoie, cerei explicaii suplimentare.
Revedei cuvintele i expresiile folosite n fiecare lecie. Folosii
vocabularul de la sfritul manualului dac nu v amintii nelesul
unora dintre acestea.
n final, ncercai s compunei exerciii asemntoare cu cele din
fiele de auto-evaluare. Fcnd acest lucru, vei sesiza unde pot
aprea probleme. Lucrai mpreun cu unul din colegii de clas i
facei schimb de exerciii. Rezolvai fiecare exerciiile compuse de
cellalt i apoi discutai mpreun. Acolo unde nu suntei sigur care
este varianta corect, consultai seciunea respectiv din manual
sau solicitai sprijinul profesorului.
n final, adoptai o atitudine pozitiv fa de evaluare: rostul
acesteia nu este s sancioneze nereuita ci s sprijine nvarea.
