After reading chapter 4, I was surprised to understand that language-focused learning through dictation and related activities. I do agree on the dictation help to develop all of the four dialectal skills in an integrative way. I didn’t agree on the discussion point related to not teach himself without focusing. Transcription helps to change the short-term memory and helps recollect the happenings of meaningful phrases and the whole judgments before writing them. There are many phrases on page 60 that I didn't understand. How is an important point for understanding the serving as an excellent review of exercise? (pg, 62).

Chapter 5 surprised me by getting the overview of pronunciation for referring to making the sound of words. I agree that this chapter directly understands creating correct vowels and consonant sounds by using the mouth muscles and the lips. There are a lot of important points that help to provide with the aspects of pronunciation, but I'm afraid I have to disagree these all points help to all to understand punctuations. There are many phases on page 80 which I didn't understand. The question is how these punctuations and techniques can help people improve their English in terms of learning (pg, 84).

Chapter 8 helps to directly focus on learning through the focus of task interaction, which surprised me. I agree with the learning of task-focused interaction. Many points are made through the focus of the interaction. I'm afraid I have to disagree that the most important part of the plan is to know about having a direct understanding of the task to know about the issues that should be resolved. Various phases on page 133 I didn't understand. How could it be necessary for understanding the orientation for knowing about the angle of knowing the ways for having a direct engrossed way? (pg, 135).
