Details for the oral examination with the lettore:

For the (lettorato) oral examination students are required to bring two copies (photocopies) of two articles on the same subject, of their own choice. One must be from a broadsheet newspaper, the other one from a tabloid. The articles must have been published within the seven days preceding the oral examination. STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO COMPARE THE LANGUAGE OF THE ARTICLES THAT THEY HAVE CHOSEN. THESE SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN FROM INTERNET. THERE IS AN AMPLE CHOICE OF NEWSPAPERS IN ROME AND IN LARGE TOWNS.

MID-COURSE TEST RESULTS

These are the results of the mid-course grammar tests for my third year groups. The general level of group C2 was gratifyingly high, although I strongly suggest that those who got a lower mark than 20/30 might profit from joining the less crowded C3 group during the coming semester.

 For your information, this is the III year course. The exam and therefore the bibliography  is the same for those who attend courses and those who do not.

III YEAR COURSE DESCRIPTION

The course aims to further develop the four skills to C1 level with particular emphasis on writing, the comparative analysis of the Italian and English grammar systems and discourse analysis being its main components. At the end of the course students are expected to be able to apply their grammar knowledge to producing correct English versions of Italian texts, completing cloze texts and structural transformation exercises. They will also write a brief essay based on the linguistic analysis of an advertisement. Sixteen hours of self-study listening tasks in the language laboratory are compulsory. Students are expected to do a considerable amount of work as preparation for lessons. Every two-hour lesson requires at least two hours of preparation as private study. Students will also be required to complete 2 assignments, one in the first and one in the second semester. To be eligible for the exemption test 75%of lessons must be attended. Please consult blogs (see below) for a more detailed description of the course and the exam format.
