叶圣陶先生曾对“语文”做过精辟的论述:“‘语文’者,口头为‘语’,书面为‘文’也。”这说明,语文教学包含口头语言和书面语言两个方面的训练。过去,小学语文教学只偏重书面语言的训练。近年来,推行素质教育,培养学生多方面的能力,说话训练已势在必行,小学语文教学正积极研究和发展口头语言的训练。 Mr. Ye Shengtao had an incisive discourse on “Chinese”: “’Chinese’ is spoken verbally and written as ’wen’.” This shows that Chinese teaching consists of training both verbal and written languages. In the past, primary language teaching only focused on written language training. In recent years, it has become imperative to promote quality education, develop students’ multi-faceted ability in speaking and training, and primary language teaching is actively studying and developing oral language training.
