This paper explored the adult student opinions on four types of English classroom activities (language learning; language acquisition; information convey; role play) and the relationship between the fondness degrees and their personality, test performance and motivation. It turned out that the majority of students ranked all classroom activities a bit highly. However, most of them would like to be taught language forms rather than to communicate in English with others. Motivation came out to be the factor that leads to most of the significant differences in this research. Taking into consideration the focus of researches in China nowadays, the results seem to be out of place and deserve serious consideration and further research. (Contains 4 tables.)
