英文寫作新專欄登場!
從這週開始訓練你 #中翻英焦點閱讀法🎯
謝謝來自澳洲的 Alex 老師犀利好文筆
快來讀讀,累積寫作功力,一起升級
前幾天 #全球串連早安新聞 香港聽友上來分享的大消息
大科技公司提出可能撤出香港!超級重大,Alex 老師就是這麼勇猛
在他的課堂要用英文討論這題目
衛報標題
Google, Facebook and other tech companies threaten to quit Hong Kong over privacy law
Alex 老師的課超有趣、燒腦、挑戰!
每週寫分析,下次上課就針對熱點議題練英文口說
讓很多自覺英文不錯的同學發現不足之處
不斷學習更精鍊的表達方式,提升、進步
我覺得非常適合英文不錯,但 #聊到深入議題容易卡住 的學習者
想要把英文從「堪稱流利」
升級到「談笑風生,什麼都能聊」
就應該到 Alex 的課練練!
好,因為我知道直接給你們看老師的全英文你們會滑掉
所以我設計了個中翻英焦點閱讀法
讓你們遊戲化,從閱讀中抓取實用 expressions
是不是用心良苦XD
來試試,以下每句引號裡的「中文」是題目
而答案就在 Alex 寫的英文中,找到學起來!
留言區就是作答欄,直接寫出來,寫錯我會挑出來~
不寫出來,自己學錯,我也檢查不到囉(汗)

開始:
「為公共利益設想」
Do corporations usually act in the interests of the public, or do they act purely to protect their profits?
「撤出香港」
That is one of the questions that should be considered in the latest threats from big tech companies to pull out of Hong Kong, and thus possibly leave China altogether.
「根據多家報紙的說法」「表面上」(提示:頗進階的副詞)
According to the accounts offered by various newspapers, an industry body known as the Asia Internet Coalition, which represents big technology companies such as Google, Apple, Twitter and Facebook, has indicated that their members will withdraw services from Hong Kong, ostensibly because they do not agree with the terms of new privacy laws being proposed there.
「此舉是為支持」「反對中國對自由的箝制」
To some commentators, it seems as though this action is being undertaken in support of a more open and free internet, and in defiance of China’s crackdown on freedoms in the territory.
「明確為了香港人民的利益」
But is this really a decision made by tech companies in the interests of the people of Hong Kong specifically, and the internet in general?
-
準備好作答了嗎?我在留言區等你
(選一題就好了XD)
Alex 老師這社論等級的文筆,大家應該學到很多吧!我自己也是
下週一晚上他的課程就是用這素材更深入練英文口說
如果你一直以來嚮往講英文也可以跟中文一樣靈活
就是要上這樣的課啦!
別再找家教陪你聊天了(那只是維持,不是進步。現在既然可以進步,為什麼只求維持?不進則退就是殘酷現實。)

Eric's English Lounge 到底在做什麼啊?是補習班嗎?
Recently, I have gotten quite a few emails asking if I do private tutoring. Some have asked if I have a bushiban or run the page with a team. While our readers know we publish English learning posts, what exactly is it that we do?
最近,我收到一些信件,詢問我是否有提供私人家教,也有人問我是否為補教業者或有一個團隊在經營這個頁面。我們的讀者都知道,我們在粉專上發布英語學習的貼文,但我們究竟是做什麼的?
★★★★★★★★★★★★
To be completely honest, I am not sure if there is a category suitable for our page. My current positions are a doctoral student and an educational consultant for e-learning companies and policy makers. In addition to hosting my classes, I use the page mainly to provide free resource and perform charitable activities.
坦白說,我不確定是否有相關的類別適合我們的粉絲專頁。目前我是一位博士生,也是網路公司的教育顧問。除了我開設的課程之外,我主要透過本專頁來提供免費的英語學習資源,並執行慈善計畫。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
I started the page in 2012 as a lecturer and the general manager of an overseas study company, and the aim was to share learning materials with my students. I would occasionally compile information online, edit them, and publish them for free. I started investing more time around 2014 and 2015, and we had about 20K fans at this point. I did not commercialize the page, so people did not know what I was doing (they literally wrote and asked me). I left my position as the general manager, and I was unsure of my next move.
起初,我以海外留學公司總經理兼講師的身份,於2012年設立了這個粉專,以便與學生們分享資訊。我偶爾會整理網路上的資訊並加以編輯,免費與大家分享。在2014年與2015年期間,我開始投入更多時間,當時我們約有2萬名粉絲。我並沒有將粉專商業化,所以很多人確實不清楚我在做什麼。之後,我辭去了海外留學公司的所有職務,但不確定自己的下一步是什麼。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
I did not want to open a test prep center like many suggested. I did not want to sacrifice my ideals to meet business goals, and I felt I could do more to make use of my experience and strengths as a curriculum writer and teacher. I started consulting educational organizations and worked on my own online classes. It was a difficult path because there was simply very little demand for “educational consultants” in Taiwan. I had to carve my own path, and worked with numerous organizations such as ETS-Taiwan and the British Council to do so. Meanwhile, I kept writing and compiling information on our page, and it became arguably one of the largest databanks of free bilingual learning resources in Taiwan.
我知道自己並不想如許多人建議那樣,開設一間補習班。我不想犧牲自己的理想來實現商業目標,而我也覺得可以發揮身為課程編寫者及老師的經驗與力量,做更多的事。因此,我開始為教育機構提供諮詢,並開設自己的線上課程。這是一條艱難的路,因為臺灣對「教育顧問」的需求非常少。我必須開闢自己的道路,並與許多機構合作,像是「ETS-臺灣」以及「英國文化協會」。同時,我持續在粉專上撰寫與整理資訊,而這似乎也讓粉專成為臺灣最大的免費雙語學習資料庫之一。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
It was around late 2016 when I started regularly posting news in English (https://bit.ly/36o3Z1e). I felt that students need to be aware of current events and think critically rather than focusing only on basic linguistic features. While vocabulary and grammar are undoubtedly important to second language learners, there are already ample resources in these domains. Given my interest in international news and years of experience living and working in both Taiwan and the US, I aim to offer language learners a unique perspective in learning. My posts began to cover the news, social issues, and educational editorials. We reached about 30K subscribers around 2018 with this approach.
大約在2016年,我開始定期用英語發布新聞 (https://bit.ly/36o3Z1e)。我覺得學生需要關注時事,並能從不同的角度思考,而非只是專注在語言本身。儘管詞彙與文法對第二語言學習者而言無疑是重要的,但在這一方面已經有相當多的資源。鑒於我對國際新聞的興趣,以及在臺美兩地生活與工作多年的經驗,我想為語言學習者提供獨特的觀點。我的貼文開始涵蓋了新聞、社會議題與教育觀點。藉由此一方式,我們的粉專約於2018年突破了3萬名的追蹤人數。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Early 2020, we broke 50K fans on FB, and I knew it was time for me to post more regularly. I added two people to my team of one, and we started regularly posting bilingual news, education editorials, posts on empathy, and of course, free English learning resources. We also have periodic giveaways of books and educational materials. Our subscribers now include students, parents, and teachers primarily from Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the US.
2020年初,我們的追蹤人數突破5萬,我便知道是時候定期發布貼文了。我邀請了兩位成員加入這個原本只有我一人的團隊,我們開始發布雙語新聞、教育評論、翻轉視界的系列貼文,當然還有免費的英語學習資源。我們也定期贈送書籍與教育資料。現在,我們的訂閱者包含了學生、家長與教師,主要是來自臺灣、香港與美國。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Some have advised me to just completely turn the page into a business since we have significant following. However, I have held back from doing so because I view myself more as a teacher and not a business owner or a social media influencer. It is not all about traffic flow and commercialization. In fact, I place many restrictions on commercial cooperation, turning down opportunities to advertise and work with many large language edu companies.
有些人建議我將這個粉專完全轉為商業用途,畢竟我們擁有可觀的追蹤人數。然而,我之所以不這麼做是因為,我認為自己是一位老師,而非公司的老闆或網紅。並非所有的事物都關乎流量與商業化。事實上,我為自己以及商業合作設下許多限制,婉拒了諸多廣告宣傳以及與許多大型語言教育公司合作的機會。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Currently, Eric’s English Lounge is not a company. I do have online classes through VoiceTube and other platforms, and I do have a team of two editors. However, all other sources of income from collaboration with businesses and influencers on my page are donated to charities in a transparent manner: https://bit.ly/3fKytik. I started this project (http://bit.ly/3990snT) this past year and plan to move the page in a sustainable, non-profit direction.
目前,Eric’s English Lounge 並不是公司。雖然我在 VoiceTube 確實有線上課程,也有一個團隊(我與兩位小編),但其餘與企業或具有影響力的人(influencers)合作所帶來的收益,均以透明的方式捐贈給慈善機構:https://bit.ly/3fKytik。
去年,我開啟了公益講座計畫(http://bit.ly/3990snT),並計劃讓粉專朝著可持續且非盈利的方向發展。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
I hope to provide as much free resource as I can. You might have noticed that I am in my 40s, a tad older than most online influencers. I come from a low-income, divorced family, and I started working when I was in junior high. I became independent when I turned 18, and took numerous jobs just to make ends meet. I am already fortunate compared to many, as I had some remarkable teachers and received aid and scholarships from the government. Nevertheless, it has been a long climb, and this has allowed me to empathize and connect with some disadvantaged students.
我希望竭盡所能地提供免費資源。也許你已經注意到我40幾了,比多數在網路上有影響力的人(online influencers)要稍年長一些。我來自一個低收入的單親家庭,國中時便開始打工。18歲那年我開始獨立自主,從事許多工作以維持生計。與多數人相比,我已非常幸運,因為我遇到許多非常傑出的老師,也獲得政府的補助與獎學金。這無疑是段漫長的過程,但也正因如此,讓我得以更加瞭解那些缺乏資源與引導的人,並與他們有所連結與擁有同理心。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Thus, this is the general background of the page. In all honesty, our page is still growing and evolving. It is used to provide free resources, to spread ideals of empathy, to do charity, and to sustain myself. I aim to continue using the page to provide educational resources, raise awareness of social issues, and offer students diverse perspectives. These are my current goals for this page. After eight years, Eric’s English Lounge is still going strong. May we all continue to learn, think, and grow together.
以上便是粉專的基本背景。老實說,我們的粉專仍在持續成長。粉專旨在提供免費的資源、提倡同理心、做慈善,並維持我個人的生活。我的目標是繼續藉由粉專為各位提供教育資源,提升社會議題的關注度,並為學生帶來不同的觀點。這些都是我當前對粉專的期許。歷經八年的風風雨雨,Eric’s English Lounge 仍屹立不搖。願我們繼續學習、持續思考,並且共同成長。

[英文學習] 到底該如何閱讀英文?
Extensive, intensive, or narrow reading? What is skimming and scanning?
英語學習者經常被要求在課堂上以多種方式閱讀。有些學習者被要求開口朗誦,讀出每個單詞。有些學習者則默念於心以理解文本。但默讀時,學習者該略讀其要義還是掃讀關鍵細節?抑或專注於語言功能還是練習閱讀策略?
English learners are often asked to read in diverse ways in the classroom. Some are asked to read orally and sound out each word. Others are told to read silently for comprehension. However, when reading silently, should learners skim for essential meanings or scan for key details? Or should they focus on linguistic features and practice reading strategies?
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Oral Reading
在找到一種閱讀方法之前,讓我們來檢視一下不同的閱讀類型。朗誦需要老師或學生大聲地朗讀,並幫助學生掌握聲韻,幫助他們改進語調、腔調、重音與節奏。默讀則包含精讀、泛讀以及窄式閱讀。
Before we can address these questions and find a suitable reading approach, let’s examine what the different reading types are.
Oral reading involves the teacher or students reading aloud and helps students to develop prosody, improving their intonation, tone, stress, and rhythm. Silent reading consists of intensive, extensive, and narrow reading, amongst others.
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Intensive Reading
精讀需要學習者在特定的學習目標與任務中進行精細的閱讀。這通常是課堂上的要求,學生須專注在文法及標示語等細節。同時學生還須辨別關鍵詞彙,並在老師的指導下仔細且反覆地閱讀文本。其目的在於建立語言知識以及對字面意涵、言外之意與修辭關係的理解。閱讀材料通常是少於500字的文本,因為較長的文本可能導致閱讀時難以關注到所有細節。
Intensive reading refers to reading in detail with specific learning aims and tasks. It is typically classroom-based, and students focus on features such as grammar and discourse markers. Students also identify key vocabulary, and text is read carefully and repeatedly with instructor input. The aim is to build language knowledge and understanding of literal meaning, implications, and rhetorical relationships. The materials used are usually shorter texts of 500 words or less at a time because it might be too difficult to focus on so many details with longer texts.
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Narrow Reading
窄式閱讀可被視為一種特殊的精讀,它是基於「可理解輸入」此一概念,意即學生閱讀略高於自身語言能力的材料。如此一來,在老師的協助下,學生得以輕鬆地專注於新的語言特徵。在練習窄式閱讀時,教師通常會找同一作者或同一主題的文章。因此,關鍵詞彙與文法結構會重複出現,學生便有更多機會在稍異的文本中看到這些特徵。這是一種非常成功的方法,因為它可以增進學生對文本的理解。
Narrow reading can be classified as a specific type of intensive reading. It is based on the concept of comprehensible input, in which students read materials slightly above their current linguistic abilities. In this way, students can easily focus on new language features with the aid of their teacher. When practicing narrow reading, teachers can find texts by the same author or the same topic. Thus, key vocabulary and grammatical structures repeat themselves, and students get many opportunities to see these features in slightly different contexts. It is a highly successful method because the comprehension of the text is enhanced due to learner familiarity with the author and subject matter.
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Extensive Reading, Scanning & Skimming
另一方面,泛讀需要學習者閱讀較長的文章,甚至閱讀整本小說以自娛並發展一般的閱讀技巧。泛讀經常是課外活動,因為老師可能會覺得這無法有效利用課堂時間,或者老師不希望課堂上太過安靜。
泛讀可能需要兩項技能:掃讀與略讀。我們可以掃讀關鍵細節或略讀要義。略讀與掃讀可使讀者大致掌握文本涵意。這並非意味著您在精讀時就不能略讀或掃讀,只是精讀通常專注在學習並理解語言特徵。當代的教育政策格外強調泛讀,因為我們期許學習者可以自主學習,並在課外進行閱讀。就其核心理念而言,泛讀鼓勵語言學習者讀其所愛!
On the other hand, extensive reading involves learners reading longer texts and even complete novels for enjoyment, and it aids learners in developing general reading skills. Extensive reading is usually done outside the classroom because teachers might feel it is not an effective use of class time, or are just uncomfortable with the extended silence.
Scanning and skimming are two skills commonly used in extensive reading. Readers can scan for key details or skim for essential meaning. Reading quickly with skimming and scanning can give readers a global or general understanding of the materials. This does not mean students cannot skim or scan when reading intensively, but typically, intensive reading focuses on learning and understanding linguistic features. Extensive reading is stressed in contemporary education policies, as learners are expected to be autonomous and read outside of class. At its core, extensive reading encourages language learners to read what they like!
★★★★★★★★★★★★
How should you read?
既然您已大致瞭解這幾種閱讀方式,您決定好要使用哪一種了嗎?答案是——您需要視情況而定!若您想進行泛讀,可閱讀更多有趣的新聞。若想精讀,您可以分析段落並與老師以及同學們回答問題。若想使用窄式閱讀,您可以找同一作者的同一主題文章,並專注在語言特徵。有些人甚至想以朗誦的方式來加強韻律或是重複閱讀來增加流暢度。
Now that you have a glimpse of different reading approaches, have you decided which you will use? The "answer" is that you need each for a different situation! You can practice extensive reading when reading for pleasure, or intensive reading when analyzing paragraphs with your teachers and peers. As for narrow reading, you can find articles by the same author on the same topic and focus on language features. Some might even want to practice oral reading to improve prosody or repeated reading to increase fluency.
訓練有素的老師可以傳授您各種不同的閱讀方法與策略,如此您便可自行練習。但即便您知道該怎麼做,您是否有足夠的決心與毅力?您該如何選擇閱讀材料並且積累閱讀策略呢?
A trained teacher can provide you with approaches and strategies for each situation so you can practice them on your own. However, even when you know how to read, do you have the determination and perseverance to read or do so much? How do you select the right materials, and how do you acquire reading strategies?
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Narrow Reading Course
如果您需要這些閱讀技巧與學習方法,也想練習窄式閱讀,那麼王梓沅老師的英文課程可以幫助到您。王梓沅老師將窄式閱讀拓展為窄式學習法,在不同的媒體上關注同一作者的同一主題資料。他的課程還使用「成長心態」與「恆毅力」學習法,傳授學習者如何開始並持之以恆,而後成為自己成功路上的最佳導師!
If you need these reading and learning strategies and want to practice narrow reading, Alexander Wang’s course is the one for you. Alex expands the narrow reading approach into narrow learning, focusing on effective language learning by using materials from the same author, the same theme, but different media. His class also guides students in developing a growth mindset with an emphasis on grit, teaching learners how they can start and sustain their learning.
The class aims to help learners become their own teachers on their English learning journey!
