Breathe New Life into English Teaching:A Book Review of Using Corpora in the Language Classroom

摘要

The present article provides a critical review of Randi Reppen’s impressing book Using Corpora in the Language Classroom.It’s argued that Randi Reppen’s book,despite a few slight flaws,has a strong practical orientation and is a laudable effort to make English language teachers to realize the importance and practicality of bringing corpora into classroom in digital age.The book is particularly worthy of reading for those language teachers(especially beginner teachers) who want to breathe new life into their English teaching.
