II.Answer the following questions briefly.

1.The essential difference is that an English language curriculum is to develop students’ overall competence in English. Its teaching and learning process is to cultivate students’ proficiency in the basic four skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. By the end of the learning, students should be able to communicate effectively in English, have certain knowledge of English culture and develop some value and abilities. However, an English literacy curriculum is to focus on students’ reading ability. The main job involved is to teach students to read and perhaps to write. The teaching objective and learning purpose is narrowed down to master a set of words; communication is absent in this curriculum.

2.It’s instrumental in that it views English as a tool for communication. To achieve effective communication, not only vocabulary and grammar but culture is embodied in the teaching goals. Besides, it is instrumental in that it sets English as a tool help understand oneself and the world. The job is not only to learn language but to develop and better oneself. It is humanist in that it concerns not only the learning of language but the development of children.
