Title: GaoKao Spoken English; Any Updates?
Post by: Ivyman on September 02, 2021, 10:24:00 PM

Hi Everyone,

I was just assigned Grade 10 and 11 GaoKao preparation, at a Guojibu.

1.  I know there are many great Chinese nationals that can teach the rules of grammar, reading, writing, and even listening.  I will not focus on those.

2.  Rather, the focus is on speaking.  Specifically, I want to use real-world situations, to foster spoken (conversational) English.

3.  From what I am told, the entire 3500 English vocabulary words on the GaoKao are publically posted.

I have attached what I know about the 2017 GaoKao here.

Is there any such updated version of this document, for the upcoming 2022 GaoKao?

In fact, any version newer than 2017 would do.

4.  I am always a self-conscious teacher.  I want to get back to basics on how to teach spoken English.

Any favorite books, resources, etc., either on this forum or other?

I don't have such a list, but if there's one out there, some digging on search engines should find it.  You may have to search in Chinese, since the list is for a Chinese test.
