非英语专业学生的英语学习动机主要取决于内在兴趣、文化兴趣、个人性格和自信心等内在动机和学业成就、学习状况、个人周围环境等外在动机。教师应通过为学习者设立短期目标,注重理论与实践并重,提高教学质量来激发学生的主动学习兴趣。 English learning motivation of non-English major students mainly depends on intrinsic motivation, cultural interest, personal character and self-confidence and other internal motivation and academic achievement, learning status, personal external environment and other external motivation. Teachers should stimulate students’ interest in active learning by setting short-term goals for learners, focusing on both theory and practice, and improving teaching quality.
