Using Graded Readers for Extensive Reading

英文閱讀包含兩類－密集閱讀與廣泛閱讀。為提昇本校同學之英語文學習成效，廣泛閱讀也融入一般密集閱讀課程中。密集閱讀著重於字彙、片語、慣用法以及句型結構等學習內容，而廣泛閱讀則著重於概括的理解並期望學生能從中領略閱讀的樂趣，提高學習動機。本文所指廣泛閱讀是指老師依學生程度，選用簡易英語小說讀本教學。一般以教科書為主的密集閱讀是多數學生所熟悉的學習模式。而閱讀小說讀本時，老師應該指導學生閱讀技巧，避免學生逐字逐句閱讀小說讀本，造成挫折。本文以作者的實際教學經驗，陳述簡易英文小說讀本可行的教學方式及其實行成效。

Two basic kinds of reading—intensive reading and extensive reading—are integrated in our English classes in order to enhance the effectiveness of English learning. Intensive reading focuses on the study of vocabulary, phrases, and grammar patterns. Usually a textbook is used for intensive reading. On the other hand, extensive reading emphasizes on general understanding and the pleasure of reading, and graded readers are useful materials for extensive reading. In this article, extensive reading means that teachers use the same graded reader to guide the whole class to read. Students in our college are more familiar with the intensive reading methods of studying English. While reading, they read slowly and carefully. When students apply intensive reading methods to reading the graded readers, they would be frustrated and would not be able to enjoy reading at all. It is suggested that teachers show students appropriate extensive reading methods to meet the purposes of extensive reading. In this way, students may have a positive attitude toward graded readers. As a result, they would be highly motivated and would enjoy reading extensively.
