1　　I take it that the purpose of any language course is to develop in learners the ability to engage in communicative behaviour and this, I have argued, must mean that there has to be a concern for capacity, for the procedural activation of competence. To coin a slogan: no course without discourse. But language courses have generally concentrated on competence and left capacity out of account. The structurally ordered course concentrates attention on linguistic competence as such but does not effectively indicate how this competence can be drawn upon as a communicative resource. It is true that words and sentence patterns will often be associated with situations, but these situations are designed simply to reveal the symbolic signification of linguistic forms. The direction of fit, as it were, is situation to language.
2　　In courses which have a notional/functional orientation, the focus of attention is on the schematic level and the direction of fit is reversed. That is
A. communicative competence is more important than linguistic competence
B. for the learner to acquire competence is more important than to acquire capacity systems
C. presenting the learners with problems is more important than providing them with solutions
D. knowledge of communicative schemata is more important than linguistic knowledge
