5、the humanities.

Usually the professor will begin the lecture by defining a con

6、cept, by highlighting an issue, or by introducing a phenomenon, and will then go on to discuss important aspects of it or perspectives relating to it.

11、 see the Raters Comments 7.3Sample Question Analysis SAMPLE RESPONSE 1 Under the broad definition, money is anything that can be used as payment (as a medium of exchange), e.g., coins/bills and barter. If you take a taxi ride, you could use vegetables as payment for the cab ride. Under a narrower de

12、finition, money is anything that must be accepted as payment (legal tender). In the United States, coins and bills are legal tender. A taxi driver must accept coins and bills as payment for the taxi ride. Vegetables and credit cards are not legal tender in the United States, so the taxi driver does

13、not have to accept these as payment. 7.3Sample Question Analysis Raters Comments on Student A The speakers pronunciation and intonation are highly intelligible. She speaks a little too quickly at times, but the overall meaning is not lost. Her words and ideas flow easily from one idea to the next. S

14、he uses complex grammatical structures and a wide range of vocabulary. The speaker fluently summarizes the stimulus accurately recounting the broad and narrow definition. Her response is detailed and sustained. She spends too much time summarizing the first definition and example, so she does not fu

15、lly explain the second definition and example. However, it is obvious from the apparent ease in which she speaks that she understands the concept and is able to talk about it. 7.3Sample Question Analysis SAMPLE RESPONSE 2 Listen and write down the key points Then exchange your notes with your partne

16、r Decide which level this response is. 7.3Sample Question Analysis Raters Comments on Student B The speakers pronunciation is generally clear. She sustains speech and continues to try to elaborate her ideas. The hesitance and choppiness indicates a lack of control of vocabulary and grammar. This sig

17、nificantly affects the overall intelligibility of the response. She conveys some relevant details including an almost accurate summary of both definitions of money. However, her response is clearly incomplete. The speakers struggle to find the right words to convey her ideas prevents her from effici

18、ently using her time. Neither of the examples is included in the response. Most of her ideas are underdeveloped. 7.3Sample Question Analysis Sample One TPO 2 Summary 1.
