Ⅰ.Introduction
After analyzing more than 1500 researches, American psychologists E.E.Maccoby and C.N.Jacklin (1974) got the following conclusions: female ability of language expression is better than males; men are better than women on vision and spatial perception; males are better than females on mathematic reasoning, especially on the reasoning of geometry and trigonometry; males are better than females on physical power and they are more aggressive on language. Among the junior middle school students, there is a phenomenon all the time that the girls’ grades are generally better than boys (Zhao,2011). The fact tells us that in the process of English learning, gender differences are the objective existence, and a lot of research has been done in this respect abroad, but in our country, we always carry out the educational pattern of not distinguishing the gender. Especially in English education of junior middle school, people only study the entire teaching method and inpidual’s psychological differences but not the effect of gender differences between male and female students in the study; that is to say, in English teaching people only pays attention to conventional teaching principles in accordance with their aptitude and other, but they lack of attention on objective differences of learning psychology, learning ability and other aspects because of gender differences. Therefore, it is very necessary for improving the quality of teaching to further study the influence of gender differences on English learning. 浅析初中男女生性别差异对英语学习的影响:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_14323.html
