Abstract
This study aims at supporting the potential values of literature in enhancing language and communication skills for language learners. In other words, the current research attempts to explore the issues on how to effectively teach communication skills in a literature class, and how to develop students’ inspirations in studying literature. In this study, a short story is employed to demonstrate the ways of exploiting a literary work to teach speaking for advanced students. Moreover, the opinions of students from the second year to the final year studying in the English Department are provided. The findings of this research report on students’ perceptions on the activities in a literature class as well as the benefits of studying literature, which hopefully raises language teachers’ consciousness with regard to the vast benefits that literature can offer in advancing the speaking competence of advanced students.
