Learn the core building blocks of conversation

在Chasing Time English的五周课程中,您将通过观看和研究电视剧《漂流》来基于语言知识。该系列专注于指导和邻接对,这将帮助您开发主要的对话构建块。

探索邻接对和典型的对话响应

许多对话都可以由两位演讲者组成,第二个发言人经常使用对问题的上下文回答。这些被称为邻接对。

You’ll look at the different types of adjacency pairs in the English language to learn the context of these action-based conversations, such as invitations, compliments, and apologies.

You’ll also learn about using insert and pre-expansions; ways that you can gain more information before or during adjacency pairs.

Expand your knowledge of conditionals

Conditional sentences can take many different forms, but they’re all usually used to express the consequence of a hypothetical scenario.

In this course, you’ll investigate the second, third, and mixed conditionals. This will allow you to discuss hypothetical situations in the present or future, as well as alternate outcomes of past situations.

Improve your confidence in verbal and non-verbal communication

During the final week of this course, you’ll be introduced to performance practice, extending the focus on verbal and non-verbal elements and helping you gain confidence in communicating successfully.
