3. Reciting and reviewing the text.
Step 1. Basing on the above formulated main idea, main topic, and main purpose of the text take 2-3 minutes to recite it.
Step 2. Select 5 key words out each paragraph making it 40 key words for the whole text.
Step 3. Limit the number of selected key words down to 10.
Section 2. Grammar workout
Fill in the blanks with the right form of an article (no article – NA, the indefinite article – IA, the definite article – DA) and check your choice against Paragraphs 5 and 6 of the text.
One of (NA, IA, DA) most notable features of (NA, IA, DA) globalisation has been (NA, IA, DA) outsourcing of services to (NA, IA, DA) countries with (NA, IA, DA) cheaper labour costs. (NA, IA, DA) Global English has helped accelerate this phenomenon and give India (NA, IA, DA) competitive edge. English is so desirable in (NA, IA, DA) outsourcing business because most of (NA, IA, DA) offshore contracts come from (NA, IA, DA) English-speaking corporations. When (NA, IA, DA) customers in some branches of (NA, IA, DA) McDonald’s restaurants in the USA place (NA, IA, DA) orders for (NA, IA, DA) fast food, they speak to (NA, IA, DA) call centre hundreds of miles away, who pass back (NA, IA, DA) order, together with (NA, IA, DA) digital photo of (NA, IA, DA) customer, to (NA, IA, DA) kitchen. This approach is marginally cheaper for (NA, IA, DA) restaurant per (NA, IA, DA) transaction but it apparently can make (NA, IA, DA) process 30 seconds faster, allowing more burgers to be sold per (NA, IA, DA) hour, with (NA, IA, DA) fewer mistakes. Each day at 4.30 am (NA, IA, DA) 20 well-educated Indians start (NA, IA, DA) work in their call centre in Kerala, India. They provide (NA, IA, DA) one-to-one tutorial help in (NA, IA, DA) subjects such as (NA, IA, DA) maths and (NA, IA, DA) science to (NA, IA, DA) Californian schoolchildren. One recent estimate suggests that over 20,000 American schoolchildren now receive (NA, IA, DA) e-tutoring support from India, usually through (NA, IA, DA) US service providers.
Unit 1-3. ENGLISH AS A UNIVERSAL LINGUAGE
Section 1. Guidelines for intensive reading of ESP texts
Patterns of organization of texts. These include the following:
Description: Descriptions include physical descriptions of persons, places, or objects, or descriptions of processes, such as step-by-step explanations of how something is done or directions for doing something.
Comparison and Contrast: In this pattern the main idea is developed through comparison and contrast with other things. Often examples are used to illustrate. Definitions and descriptions are often included in this pattern.
Other patterns of organization of texts include:
Analysis: In this pattern, a topic is broken down into causes, effects, reasons, methods, purposes, or other categories that support the main idea.
Analogy: In this pattern the main idea is implied by the use of analogy. This organizing principle is often used to make complex concepts easier to understand by relating them to better known ones.
Definition: The purpose of a text in this pattern is to define, explain, or clarify the meaning of something. It may involve analysis, comparison or contrast, description, or even analogy. Students become adept at recognizing implied and explicit definitions.
