英语作为一种语言 ,其本质是交际。因此中学英语教学大纲中明确提出要把培养学生初步运用英语交际的能力作为外语教学的主要目的。这就要求英语教师不仅要教给学生基本的英语语言知识 ,更要教会学生如何使用英语进行交际。一、创设愉悦轻松的课堂气氛 ,培养学生大胆开口说英语 As a language, English is the essence of communication. Therefore, it is clearly stated in the secondary school English syllabus that the ability to cultivate students’ initial use of English communication should be taken as the main purpose of foreign language teaching. This requires English teachers not only to teach students basic English language knowledge, but also to teach students how to use English to communicate. First, create a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere in the classroom and train students to speak boldly and speak English.
