Read the lecture about “critical thinking” and then answer the following
questions.
Janet Foster
JF: Good morning, everyone.
All: Good morning.
JF:
Thank you for inviting me to speak to you today. My name’s Janet Foster and I work in the
Learning Recourses Centre. I’ve been at Harvard University for five years, but this is my first visit to
the English language department, so I’m very pleased to be here.
As you know, our topic today is critical thinking. It is very important when you study at this
level to have an idea about “critical thinking". What does it mean exactly? How does it help you
understand reading texts better? This morning, I’ll explain some important ideas about critical
thinking, and I’ll explain how critical thinking can help you as a language learner. If you have any
questions, I’ll deal with them at the end of this lecture if that’s convienent.
Now, I’m sure we all know what we mean by ‘thinking’, but what about the word
‘critical’? Maybe ‘critical’ sounds rather unfriendly to you, like saying someone or something is
bad or wrong. But when we talk about critical thinking, we don’t just mean critical in this rather
negative sense. It’s true, we’re talking about an attitude or a way of looking at the world, but it’s
not a negative attitude.
Instead, critical thinking means that we have a questioning attitude towards things. We ask
questions about things. But these questions are not questioning about facts. Let me give you an
example. If I ask, ‘What’s the biggest continent in the world?’, maybe you know the answer already. Or
simply you can check quickly on the internet. So, this isn’t the kind of question we ask when we do
critical thinking. Instead, in critical thinking, we ask about the reasons for something or we try to judge
something to form an opinion about it, to decide if it’s good or bad. So, we ask questions like, ‘Why is
he or she saying that?’, ‘What’s the reason for that?’, ‘Is that a good idea?’ These are critical thinking
questions.
How can this critical thinking help us learn a language? Well, let’s think about reading texts for
a minute. If you ask questions about the text while you’re reading, you’ll probably understand the text
better. So, critical thinking can help you to improve your reading comprehension. One question you
can always ask is, ‘Why is the writer writing this text?’ What’s the writer’s aim? Look for reasons why
the writer wrote that text. Is the writer just giving you some information? Or trying to persuade you that
his or her ideas are good?
Another question you can ask when you read is, ‘How do I know that what I am reading is true?’ To do
this, you must look for evidence or proof. If the writer makes a point, see if he or she gives evidence to
support that point. If someone gives us evidence, for example some data, then that makes the
argument stronger. If there’s evidence, it’s more difficult for us to say, ‘Your ideas are wrong’.

Finally, another question that you can ask is, ‘What’s the relationship between the ideas in the
text?’ Maybe this is a little difficult to understand but, for example, ask yourself, ‘Is the text describing a
problem … and giving a solution to that problem?’ Or ‘Is the text comparing and contrasting two things
– looking at similarities and differences?’ Or again, ‘Is the text looking at causes and effects – the
reason why something happens and the results of that?’ If we understand these relationships between
different parts of the text, we can understand the whole text a lot better.
So, as I’ve said, critical thinking in its simplest form is about asking questions and don’t forget,
too, critical thinking doesn’t mean thinking only by yourself;
you can work with other students and
discuss things together. Critical thinking can be a group activity. So, what I’d like you to do
now is …….
1. According to the text, what does “critical thinking” mean?
2.
Name three things you can look for in a text to help you understand reading texts
better?
Critical thinking means that we have a questioning attitude towards things.

and then answer the following question.
What to choose?
Our education system, our gifted and creativity center or our youth
society. It’s very difficult to choose, as I am so proud of many things in my society. Two things,
however, make me especially proud of my society. The first thing is that my country is being
name “The land of peace” so you see people of many different races,
colours
and religions all
live
and work side by side - it is called a multicultural society. I think it’s a great example of how
people can come together and create a mixed, peaceful society. The second thing is less
obvious as it often happens out of sight.
It’s the fact that every day of the year, thousands of
people do voluntary work. They give up their time to help others for nothing. They help their
local hospitals and communities, look after old people and do things to raise money for good
causes. Because of these things, I feel proud of my society and see a positive future for it.
I think
it is very important to help others and contribute to your society. My country has given me a lot
and it is time to give something back.

Suggested
answer
I find it very difficult to decide as I am so proud of many things in my society today. I
am so proud of our educational system, the Royal Humanitarian Foundation and the National
volunteering Platform. Two things, however, make me especially proud of my society.
First, I am proud of the
Royal Humanitarian Foundation
. It is a non-profit organization
that was established in 2001 by His Majesty King Hamad Bin Isa Al Khalifa for the purpose of
caring for Bahraini orphans coming from eligible families and providing care of widows as
well. The organization is an example of how the government cares for all citizens and
provides the suitable living conditions to every member of our society.
In addition to the
Royal Humanitarian Foundation
, I do take pride in our National
Volunteering Platform. It provides details about the diverse volunteering opportunities
available within the Kingdom of Bahrain. The platform aims to promote loyalty, responsibility
and tolerance. It also aims to create an environment conducive to volunteering and to
connect volunteers from all parts of the country.
Because of these things, I feel proud of my society and see a positive future for it. I
think it is very important to help others and contribute in your society. My country has given
me a lot and it is time for me to give something back.

Our education system, our gifted and creativity center or our youth society. It s very difficult to choose, as I am so proud of many things in my society. Two things, however, make me especially proud of my society. 2. The first thing is my country is called The land of peace so you see people of many different races, colours and religions all live and work side by side -It is called a multicultural society. I think it s a great example how people can come together and create a mixed, peaceful society. 3. The second thing is less obvious as it often happens out of sight. It s the fact that every day of the year, thousands of people do voluntary work. They give up their time to help others for nothing. They help their local hospitals and communities, look after old people and do things to raise money for good causes. 4. Because of these things, I feel proud of my society and see a positive future for it. I think it is very important to help others and contribute to your society. My country has given me a lot and it is time to give something back. Julie
