LT123 Workshops
‘I’m pleased to say that 2015 is our third year sponsoring the IATEFL information desk．This year, we are running three workshops covering some of the key areas of our wide-ranging special skills: testing, editing and vocabulary．We how to see you.’
—— Russell Whitehead Director
Vocabulary testing: why, what and how? By Felicity O’ Dell & Russell Whitehead
Saturday 11th April 3:50-4:35 pm Charter 4
Should vocabulary be one of the language features that we test and, if so, why? What vocabulary - and what aspects of vocabulary - should we focus on in our tests? What methods can we use to test vocabulary?
We will discuss answers to these questions, considering the strengths and weaknesses of different types of vocabulary test for different teaching contexts.
There’s something missing from your project - the editor! By David Baker & Fiona MacKenzie
Sunday 12 April 10:25-11:10 am Charter 8
Big publishing companies no longer offer the single route to publication．Whether you are self-publishing, a teaching institution developing its own materials, or a digital start-up, in a highly competitive environment it isn’t enough to write something and just put it out there.
Quality still matters - you can’t afford to forget one of the key roles in successful publishing.
Vocabulary levels: which words are at which level? By Stephen Bullon
Monday 13th April 1:35-2:20 pm Charter 8
While students develop their competence in the four skills and in their ability to master grammatical structures, they are together building their vocabulary.
We will try to establish the standards involved in selecting appropriate vocabulary at the various levels students pass through: frequency, teaching requirements, and register are all factors that need to be weighed in the balance.
LT123 is the new name for Language Testing 123, and we are proud sponsors of the 49th Annual
International IATEFL Conference and Exhibition.
Manchester, April 2015.

I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”
Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; in Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”
In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”
People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.
It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, ‘Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite, They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
1.When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usually _________.
A. describe the place carefully
B. show him a map of the place
C. tell him the names of the streets
D. refer to recognizable buildings and places
2.What is the place where people measure distance in time?
A. New York. B. Los Angeles. C. Kansas. D. Iowa.
3.People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ________.
A. in order to save time B. as a test
C. so as to be polite D. for fun
4.What can we infer from the text?
A. It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.
B. It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.
C. People have similar understandings of politeness.
D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.

One of Britain’s bravest women told yesterday how she helped to catch suspected (可疑的) police killer David Bieber—and was thanked with flowers by the police. It was also said that she could be in line for a share of up to $30,000 reward money.
Vicki Brown, 30, played a very important role in ending the nationwide manhunt. Vicki, who has worked at the Royal Hotel for four years, told of her terrible experience when she had to steal into Bieber’s bedroom and to watch him secretly. Then she waited alone for three hours while armed police prepared to storm the building.
She said, “I was very nervous. But when I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen lined up in the car park, I was so glad they were there.”
The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious (怀疑) of the guest who checked in at 3 p.m. the day before New Year’s Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his face. She said, “He didn’t seem to want to talk too much or make any eye contact.” Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her bosses Margaret, 64, and her husband Stall McKale, 65, who phoned the police at 11 p.m.
Officers from Northumbria Police called Vicki at the hotel in Dunston, Gateshead, at about 11:30 p.m. to make sure that this was the wanted man. Then they kept in touch by phoning Vicki every 15 minutes.
“It was about ten past two in the morning when the phone went again and a policeman said ‘Would you go and make yourself known to the armed officers outside?’ My heart missed a beat.”
Vicki quietly showed eight armed officers through passages and staircases to the top floor room and handed over the key.
“I realized that my bedroom window overlooks that pair of the hotel, so I went to watch. I could not see into the man’s room, but I could see the passage (走廊). The police kept shouting at the man to come out with his hands showing. Then suddenly he must have come out because they shouted for him to lie down while he was handcuffed (带手铐).”
1.The underlined phrase “be in line for” in the first paragraph means __________.
A. get B. be paid C. ask for D. own
2.Vicki became suspicious of David Bieber because _________.
A. the police called her
B. he looked very strange
C. he came to the hotel with little luggage
D. he came to the hotel the day before New Year’s Eve
3.David Bieber was most probably handcuffed in _________.
A. the passage B. the man’s room
C. Vicki’s bedroom D. the top floor room
4.The whole event probably lasted about ________hours from the moment Bieber came to the hotel to the arrival of some armed officers.
A. 6 B. 8 C. 11 D. 14

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Trampolining
What’s more fun than standing still? Jumping up and down on a springy piece of fabric (织物)! This activity is known as trampolining and it’s sweeping the nation．
The idea of trampolining is ancient．Eskimos have been throwing each other in the air for thousands of years．Firemen began using a life net to catch people jumping from buildings in 1887.1.
A gymnast named George Nissan and his coach Larry Griswold made the first modern trampoline in 1936.They got the idea by watching swing artists bouncing off of a tight net at the circus．They named their equipment after the Spanish word trampolín, which means diving board.
2. In 1942 they began making trampolines to sell to the public.
3.Experts find that more than 100,000 people hurt themselves while using one each year．Clubs and gyms use large safety nets or other equipment to make it safer．Most trampoline injuries happen at home．Since trampolines are more affordable than ever, injuries are even more common.
These injuries happen for many reasons．People may bounce too high and land off of the trampoline or onto the springs．4.Perhaps the worst injuries happen when untrained people try to do flips (快速翻转)．Landing on your neck or head can cause injuries or even kill you.
But don’t let all that bad news keep you down．There are many things that you can do to practice safe trampolining．Trampolines have been around for a while now．They have brought a lot of joy to many people．They can be a good source of exercise and activity．5.But they can also be deadly．It is important to follow some professional guidance．Be sure that you are practicing safety while having a good time．Happy bouncing!
A． They can help people improve their balance and moves.
B． Trampolines may be fun, but they can also be dangerous.
C． The men wanted to share their idea with the whole world.
D． Injuries also happen when many people are jumping at the same time.
E． You can surround your trampoline with a net so that people don’t fall off of it．
F． They found a winner when they performed a piece of spring across a steel frame.
G． And in the early 1900s, circus performers began bouncing off of netting to amuse audiences．

In 1693 the philosopher John Locke warned that children should not be given too much “unhealthy fruit” to eat．Three centuries later, misguided ideas about child-raising are still popular．Many parents fear that their children will die unless ceaselessly watched．In America the law can be equally paranoid (偏执的)．In South Carolina this month Debra Harrell was jailed for letting her 9-year-old daughter play in a park unsupervised (无人监督的)．
Her severe punishment reflects the rich world’s worry about parenting．By most objective measures, modern parents are far more conscientious (认真的) than previous generations．Dads are more hands-on than their fathers were, and working mothers spend more time nurturing their children than the housewives of the 1960s did．However, there are two problems in this picture, connected to class．One is at the lower end．Even if poor parents spend more time with their children than they once did, they spend less than rich parents do．America is a laggard here: its government spends abundantly on school-age kids but much less than other rich countries on the first two or three years of life．If America did more to help poor parents with young children, it would have huge returns．
The second one, occurs at the other end of the income scale, and may even apply to otherwise rational (理性的) Economist readers: well-educated, rich parents try to do too much．Safety is part of it—they fear that if they are not constantly watching their children may break their necks, which is the least rational．Despite the impression you get from watching crime dramas, children in rich countries are safe, so long as they look both ways before crossing the road．The other popular parental fear—that your children might not get into an Ivy League college—is more rational．Academic success matters more than ever before．But beyond a certain point, parenting makes less difference than many parents imagine．Studies in Minnesota and Sweden, for example, found that identical twins grew up equally intelligent whether they were raised together or apart．A study in Colorado found that children that adopted and raised by brainy parents ended up no brainier than those adopted by average parents．
This doesn’t mean that parenting is irrelevant．The families who adopt children are carefully screened, so they tend to be warm, capable and middle-class．But the twin and adoption studies indicate that any child given a loving home and adequate stimulation is likely to fulfill her potential．Put another way, better-off parents can afford to relax a bit．And if you are less stressed, your children will appreciate it, even if you still make them eat their fruit and vegetables．
1.Which of the following statements is NOT a misguided idea of parenting mentioned in the passage?
A． Children should be protected from any dangers by their parents
B． The more conscientious parents are, the more children will surely benefit from parenting
C． Children will die unless ceaselessly watched
D． Children are likely to fulfill their potential with a loving home and adequate stimulation
2.The underlined word “laggard” in Paragraph 2 probably means a country that __________．
A． is ahead in development
B． falls slow behind others
C． is free from physical or mental disorder
D． moves to a higher position
3.Which of the following can we learn from the passage?
A． Only warm, capable and middle-class people can adopt a child．
B． When it comes to child-raising, Economist readers will become more rational．
C． Children in rich countries are in greater danger due to the bad influence of crime dramas．
D． Although poor parents spend more time with their kids than they once did, they spend less than rich parents do．
4.This passage is mainly written to __________．
A． urge American laws concerning parenting to be changed
B． advise modern parents to learn from their previous generations
C． persuade stressed parents to learn to relax and give more freedom to their children
D． call on the government to do more to help poor parents with school-age children
