Dashan's Feeling about Language Learning
Reporter: You have been in China for so many years, what's your feeling about living in China? Do you enjoy it?
Dashan: Well, actually, I lived in China full-time for 7 years, from 1988 to 1995. But now since 1995,I live half in Canada and half in China. I really enjoy that, because I enjoy my work in China and my friends and everything here. But I also enjoy Canada. So I find the best thing for me is to go back and forth, because that way I can continue with my career here and have my normal life in Canada where nobody recognizes me. For me, both of those together are really the best combination.
Reporter: I think Chinese people are more familiar with you speaking Chinese, but our magazine needs you to speak English. So it's lucky for us to hear your English this time. I just wonder which language do you speak more in your daily life. Chinese or English?
Dashan: It's hard to say, because sometimes it depends on what you are doing, whom you are talking with and what subject you are talking about. But I find talking about something very Chinese is difficult to do in English. And also from the opposite way, sometimes trying to explain something about western culture in Chinese is difficult, too.
Reporter: You are considered a successful foreign language learner, could you share with us your experience in learning foreign languages?
Dashan: I studied Chinese for 4 years in my university in Canada. I think one of the things my teacher did very well was to get away from traditional textbooks as soon as possible. We used the standard textbooks for the first 2 years, because you ha, de to learn the pinyin, you have to learn the bas is characters and basic grammar. For those things, textbooks are the best, because they are very scientific. Everything is nicely arranged for you to learn in order. But language itself is not like that. In many ways, it's not really a very scientific thing. I think many people in China who study English have a mistake. They try to use very scientific methods to study something that it self is very unscientific. So in the third year, my teacher just showed us short stories or newspaper articles or just things for everyday life to learn. Anyway, it's very difficult at first. But I think the biggest advantage is: textbooks are written by Chinese people for foreigners, while the novels or newspapers are something the Chinese people write for themselves. So the same thing, we will make textbooks for Chinese person probably different from the way we would actually speak to a native speaker. So 1 think once you get to a certain level, it's good to get away from the textbooks and just go to the real living language that people actually speak.
Reporter: It seems that coming to China helped a lot with your Chinese. And many students believe that if they want to speak foreign languages very well, they have to go abroad. Do you agree with them?
Dashan: It helps! Certainly. My personal experience is that it's possible to learn a language without immersion environment, but it's much better to have an immersion. When I first came to China, I could talk to people in the street, I could do the basic conversation with no problem, and I could do those skits on television, but of course, my accent was very strong. I think even if you have the knowledge and the ability to communicate, you don't have the feeling for the language. And the feeling for the language is something that you'll get with immersion environment. So for young people, I hope everybody has the opportunity to travel overseas. I find there's another great benefit that you can understand your own country much better.
Answer the following questions:
1．What kind of life does Dashan enjoy most? Why?
2．What's the most difficult thing Dashan finds in speaking C) hinese or English?
3．In Dashan's opinion, what is the mistake many people in China who study English usually have?
4．What is the main difference between the textbooks for foreigners and novels according to Dashan?
5．Does going abroad to learn foreign languages help ? Why?
