First raised in 1980s, Task-based Instruction (TBI) is an effective teaching method advocated by many foreign language researchers, focusing on the use of authentic language and on asking students to do various kinds of meaningful tasks through the target language. Based on a study carried out in Leshan Normal University, the writer proves that the application of TBI to college English reading teaching can greatly intrigue non-English majors, help them build their self-confidence in English study, cultivate their sense of cooperation in the process of carrying out classroom activities and tasks with their classmates and thus to improve non-English majors’ reading ability. In addition, some suggestions to TBI are also presented for further studies.

English reading is of vital significance in English learning. In proficiency tests such as CET-4, CET-6, IELTS and TOFEL, extensive reading accounts for a large proportion in scores. Those who do well in reading tend to get higher scores. However, the current English teaching situation doesn’t show its significance: the in-class time is limited with only two classes each week, and it’s difficult to decide appropriate textbooks for teachers. As a result, students can’t figure out the significance of extensive reading course and think little of it. Since the Internet appears in every aspect of our daily life, we can combine extensive reading course with the Internet. By using our spare time to reading fragmented information in English from the Internet selected and instructed by the teacher in any place, we bring fragmented reading into extensive reading teaching. In this paper, the author aims to assume a new teaching model concerning fragmented reading in details. Through this new teaching model, students can not only read English materials in classroom, but also after class in any place with their spare time. With much more input of English both in and out of class, their reading ability will be improved and they are more ready to deal with proficiency tests of all kinds. Meanwhile, students’ interests will be aroused and their horizons will be broadened, which are also helpful for students to pass all kinds of proficiency tests.

English reading ability is an important indicator to measure learners’ English ability. However, because reading ability cannot be directly observed, people usually take tests to judge the reading ability of learners. Therefore, it is very necessary to design a reasonable diagnostic practice sentence repetition recognition system to analyze and test, inform learners of the advantages and disadvantages in reading, and give corresponding countermeasures. In order to properly solve the problem of repeated recognition of English diagnostic sentences, we have developed a new recognition system combined with matching tree and edge computing technology. First, the matching tree algorithm is used for the repetitive diagnosis of English sentences. The algorithm has achieved good results in the repetitive diagnosis and matching. Secondly, an English diagnostic practice sentence repetition recognition system architecture is built through edge computing algorithms, which improves the efficiency of the English diagnostic system. Finally, through the simulation test of the English diagnostic practice system, the applicability of the established repeated recognition model is verified.
