第 119 课:双向沉浸法-1

In the last ten years, hundreds of American schools have begun to offer a new way to teach foreign languages. 在刚刚过去的十年,成百上千的美国学校开始应用一种新的方法去教授外语。

This method is called dual or two-way immersion. 这种方法被称为双重或双向沉浸法。

Here is how it works at London Towne Elementary School in Centreville , Virginia , outside Washington . 下面就是该种方法应用的例子。在华盛顿郊区弗吉尼亚州森特维尔的伦敦汤小学。

In some classes, only Spanish is spoken, even during the Pledge of Allegiance -- a morning tradition for American schoolchildren. 在部分课堂上,只能说西班牙语,即使是在效忠宣誓期间——效忠宣誓是美国学生早晨的传统。

And this is a second grade class where the children learn math and other subjects completely in Spanish. 这是二年级的课堂,课堂上学生们完全用西班牙语学习数学以及其它课程。
