5、要摘要:随着语言教学和学习方法的不断改革,需要教师用英语组织教学并创造英语学习环境。由于学生的词汇量有限,用肢体语言授课才可以完全达到视听教学原则的标准,所以教师在授课全过程中应使用相应的肢体语言。最终,学生的英语能力一定会有很大提高。教师必须通过面部表情和身体动作来简化教学语言,帮助学生理解文章。肢体语言的应用不仅可以让教师在课堂上充分表现自己,为学生创造活跃的英语学习气氛,还可以刺激学生学习和掌握英语的兴趣。此论文论述了肢体语言在英语教学中运用的优势,以及肢体语言运用在听读写四项技能方面产生的影响。关键词: 中学英语教学 肢体语言 教学策略Introduction As everyone
6、knows, the classroom teaching is one of the most important ways that the students learn English. As far as the English teaching in the middle schools is concerned, teachers have to arouse the students interest so that they may learn better. There are many ways to arouse the students interest and hel
7、p them to learn better, body language used in English teaching is one of them. Body language is an important media through which people communicate with each other. It refers to the patterns of facial expressions and gestures that people use to express their feelings in communication. The specialist
8、 on body language research, Fen. Lafle. Angles, once said: Once it was lost, a baby couldnt have grown into a normal person. Its also true to the juveniles. In school education, body language plays a positive role in cultivating the students characters. For, teachers are usually respected, and factu
9、ally, what or how the teachers say and do will be possibly imitated by the students (sometimes subconsciously). In a word, teachers graceful body language helps to improve the students artistic-appreciation and moral character. If the students develop a wonderful body language, which will possibly l
10、eads them to form optimistic and active feelings; they will surely have a more smooth interpersonal relation. The affection of teachers body language on the students is reflected not only by establishing a good example, but also shortening the teacher-student estrangement by which a more harmonious
11、studying atmosphere is created. As a matter of fact, teachers friendly appearance can greatly encourage the students studying enthusiasm. Furthermore, the characteristics of theoretic and abstraction of knowledge also requires the vivid, dramatic and an accessible gestures to make it specific and fi
12、gurative. As a result, the students interest is motivated and the effect of teaching is greatly improved. 1. The Definition of Body Language Body language is known as non-verbal behavior which transmits information through gestures, movement and facial expression. People communicate with each other
13、by their body language in the ways of nodding, waving, eye contacting, shrugging and so on. According to the psychologists research, these ways can express something that verbal language can not directly express. Body language can be divided into sight language; body touches language, posture, gestu
14、re, manner, facial expression, and clothes language (Bi.2001). 2. Advantages of Body Language in English Teaching 2.1 Stirring Students Interest As an old saying goes: interests are the best teacher. The teachers appliance does not focus on teaching itself only; and the students can absorb better if
15、 they study at their own will (Cooper.1988). It is going to be painful that they work hard on academic course just because the teachers expect them to do so. The teachers have to stimulate the students, and the way teachers use to motivate them can be very important. If the teachers have passion in
16、class, they can offer the students positive studying attitude.Some students are so shy that they did not dare to open their mouth to say anything when teachers were teaching them pronunciation. From my knowledge about this kind of introverted students, they can be easily hurt inside. But if the teac
17、hers choose an appropriate way, they may help them develop a better personality. Students read the teachers body language to know what they can get in class, what is important or unimportant, and what is commended or what is disallowed. By reading the teachers body language, the students can know re
18、ad the teachers mind. In short moment an audacious idea occurs to me I was sure that a lot of sermons were not suitable to help an introverted student get rid of his weakness. Why not to set him in an embarrassing situation? Maybe it will work. 2.2 Expressing Themselves Better English is a sort of l
19、anguage which depicts English culture. Due to this, it is definitely wrong for an English teacher to arrange the class normally as the teachers of other subjects do. A good English teacher is not judged by the number of good students in his class, but about whether he could make it sure that the stu
20、dents understand the deep meaning when people are talking in English (Fries, 1945). English learners have to internalize the information that they have got from their teachers. Because of the lack of language atmosphere, Chinese students cannot speak their mind freely, let alone understand the deep
21、meaning. If we do not use the appropriate words, maybe we will make the students become puzzle or ever give them worry information. Fortunately body language helps a lot to solve this problem. So the students do not have to say a lot of words around one idea. With the help of body language, they can
22、 easily understand when they try to start a conversation with others. 2.3 Understanding Students Clearly When the teachers are giving class, body language is not only to motivate the students, but also help to understand the students inside world. This informative workshop on body language provides
23、every teacher with an in-depth knowledge of micro-movement. If the students are submissive, anxious, dominant, bored, lying or telling the truth, the way students stand, move, and sit reveal and convey their thought. Because these movement are produced at a subconscious or unconscious level .If the
24、teachers are unaware of the students meanings that are shown by incongruous through the students words or behavior, they can not create an interesting studying atmosphere. To be able to avoid these, the teachers should have a better understanding of how they think and feel. This comprehensive worksh
