在初中外语教学中,是否使用母语、如何使用母语,一直是同行们争论的话题。笔者在多年的初中英语教学中,深深体会到,没有母语的介入,无法进行外语教学,但过多的使用母语,又会失去外语学习的兴趣及外语本身的特质。为此,适度使用母语是学好外语的有效手段。所谓用母语来教外语,就是借用母语进行外语知识的讲解、练习、巩固和阅读,形成外语技能。怎样在初中英语教学中灵活运用母语呢? In junior high school foreign language teaching, whether to use the mother tongue, how to use the mother tongue, has been a topic of debate among colleagues.
