1.3 Speaking and listening Listening is an important skill for the person who is learning English because in verbal communication we cannot communicate with each other without listening to the speaker’s utterances and understanding them. However, listening is a very demanding and challenging skill for the learners to master. Many students often encounter trouble in listening to foreign people even though they are doing well in the English classroom. According to Rubin (1995:8), “For second/foreign

(Will there always be a light to outshine our own, wondered Shaun.) It was nearly time to leave, and he hadn't had as much as a drop of coffee, but she was calling - his responsible half. "We're late. Come on." Disappointing her in the morning always depressed him in the afternoon, not because he was such a great guy, but because don't we all just protect ourselves. Dripping out of the shower (too late to shave), Shaun plodded out the bathroom head held low, ashamed to be ashamed. (Wasn't I supposed

the small shrine seemed to open itself, welcoming all newcomers. We spoke often as we worked in the garden, and I learned that she liked simple meals like omurice, which made her sound like my six-year-old cousin who also loved those fried rice omelettes. She also told me that her father was a Shinto priest for a large shrine in the neighboring town,

After doing some research I could see that the cultural distance between the United States and Turkey varies depending on the topic. For example, the primary language in the United States is English, whereas Turkey’s primary language is Turkish. Another example is the

It is wide enough to flip eggs. And it is perfectly sized to flip grilled cheese sandwiches, pancakes, omelettes - even fresh-baked cookies. Other spatulas melt if left too close to a burner. But this Kuhn Rikon slotted spatula is made from silicon - and it handles heat up to 600 degrees. (Warning: the handle is made of rubber, not silicone. And the handle

After our breathing calmed, Britton swept me into a warm bath. I am guessing I most have dozed briefly as his en suite was now filled with soft candlelight and the tub was practically spilling over with bubbles that smelled lightly of citrus and maybe geraniums – it was tart and crisp but not girly or masculine. Seeing the near mess, I guessed that bubbles were not his usual deal. In fact, he had always smelled closer to powder or leather. Soft and warm, from a shower. Stepping into the tub, he lowered

Mitch wakes to the sun shining brightly through his window onto his face and the sound of birds chirping outside. He groans loudly and turns onto his side, his back to the window, throwing a large pillow over his face to block any and every trace of sunlight shining through into his room. He’s not a morning person. He lays in bed trying to decide if he should get out of bed and be productive or if he should just give himself a little break and fall back asleep. He chooses the latter. He deserves
