Role-play 两人一组,分角色朗读以下对话。
Lucy: Today more and more people advocate lifelong learning. But people have diifferent views about lifelong learning. How do you understand lifelong learning?
Chris: I think lifelong learning is the concept that it's never too soon or too late for learning.
Lucy: Does that mean studying all the time?
Chris: I don't think so. I think it's about your attitude towards learning. One should be open to new ideas, decisions, skills or behaviors.
Lucy: Then the axiom -- "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" doesn't work any longer.
Chris: You're right. Lifelong learning is about finding learning opportunities at all ages and in numerous comtexts: at work. at home and through leisure activities. It is not limited to higher education.
Lucy: Yes, I agree with you. When I retired I will participate in programs to keep mentally active.
Chris: Me too. To keep up with the changing world, one must be involved in learning and be ready to accept new things.
Lucy: You know what? I've recently been teaching myself French.
Chris: Really? That's great! I know that your company has a lot of clients in France.
Lucy: Yes. So I want to learn French to develop my business capability.
