Introduction
Students studying English today do so for a variety of reasons—to get a better job, to study abroad, to travel, to make friends with other English-speakers, or simply to learn something new. No matter what the reason is for learning English, most students want the same thing—materials with useful English. With this book, 100 Topics for Daily English Situations, students will not only have access to a wealth of vocabulary words organized by useful everyday topics, but they will also learn how these words can be used in “real English” dialogues.
This book includes 100 chapters. Each chapter is based on a useful topic for daily English and includes a list of important sentences, key words/phrases, and two dialogues. As the English that is used in today’s world is becoming increasingly mixed (ie. neither British English nor American English), there is a mix of both American English and British English phrases and words used throughout the book. Also, the names used in the book include some of the most popular names for 2006, so if students are looking for a new English name, this might be a useful resource!
In order to make use of this book, it is recommended that instead of working through the book in order, students find the topics that are of most interest to them to study first. After choosing a topic, it is advised that students first brainstorm what they know about the topic first by listing words, phrases, and ideas that they are already familiar with. Then, students can read through the key words and add the new words to a “vocabulary notebook” so that the words can be reviewed in an orderly fashion in the future in order for them to be moved from short-term memory to long-term memory. Students can then preview the dialogues by reading through the key phrases and reading through the main dialogues with a partner.
While students might find memorizing some of the key phrases useful, it should be noted that the goal of communicating in another language is to be able to deal with spontaneous speech and not to recite memorized pieces. Therefore, students should focus more on understanding how to use the words in a sentence than on memorizing the dialogues in full. In order to practice spontaneous speech, students might find it useful to come up with their own dialogues, using some of the key words and phrases from each chapter, by either writing new dialogues down on paper or, ideally, by orally producing their own dialogues with another English-speaking student or tutor.
Finally, this book can be used in a variety of ways. Independent learners might choose to use this book for self-study purposes. Those who have access to a “language exchange partner” or a private tutor might find it useful to practice the dialogues in their English sessions. Teachers might also find this book to be a useful core textbook, especially those teaching “Conversational English”. Whatever your goal in learning English, the more fun you have with the language, the more likely it is that you will be successful! Hopefully, this book will allow you to have fun－and at the same time, to achieve your English language learning goals.
