S. Korean TOEFL Star Performers recognized
韩国首批托福星级考生获奖结果揭晓
A TOTAL of 10 students from South Korea have been recognized as gold-level “Star Performers” on the TOEFL test. Each of them achieved a minimum TOEFL total score of 110 and a minimum section score of 25 in all four skills — Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening. They were the first test takers in South Korea to earn such scores. “Congratulations to these outstanding students for their mastery of university-level English. Their performance reinforces the importance of learning all four skill areas,” says Philip Tabbiner, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Business Development Partnerships and Global for ETS.
Girls make boys worse at English
研究发现班级性别比例影响学生英语水平
CHILDREN should be taught in single-sex classes for English because boys are being held back by the presence of girls, a study by Bristol University, UK, suggests. The study found that boys perform up to a 10th of a grade worse when they are placed in mixed classes. And it claimed that the more girls there are, the worse boys do. The trend was particularly marked in primary schools but may also apply in secondaries. However, British girls, who outperform boys in English at every stage at school, are unaffected by the number of boys in their English classes.
