問題詳情

請依下文回答第 21 題至第 25 題Many misunderstandings about grammar develop from the difference between implicit knowledge and explicitknowledge. In our first language (Ll), we are usually unaware of our developing knowledge of grammar, which accruesfrom early childhood. When learning a second language (L2), however, we are usually taught how to describe sentencestructure and state grammar rules. Your implicit grammar knowledge tells you that something is wrong in a sentence, butit is your explicit knowledge which enables you to describe the nature of a mistake and state the rule which has beenbroken.The distinction between implicit and explicit grammar knowledge is clearly illustrated by the difference between nativeand non-native speakers. Ll speakers tend to have a high level of implicit grammar knowledge, because they haveacquired the grammar of their mother tongue without actively being taught. The fact that they are unable to formally statethe rules of English grammar may lead them to think that they don’t know any grammar at all. On the other hand, L2learners, who may be able to describe parts of speech and recite grammar rules, may not be able to produce grammaticalsentences consistently, because this knowledge is very different from the internalized, implicit knowledge of the languagewhich the native speaker benefits from.Today, most language teachers are familiar with methods through which grammar can be taught practically andcommunicatively.Contemporary teaching usually makes use of both implicit and explicit teaching methods. Learning exercises can beemployed which allow students to discover grammar rules through context and examples. In other situations, where it isstill useful for students to learn patterns and rules, care is taken to make these relevant and communicative.
