为了回答以上的问题，作者开展了相关的实验并且持续了4周。这次实验的对象是来自学军小学4（6）班的49名学生和他们的英语老师。研究运用了分析的方法。通过分析考试结果，我们可以得出运用自然拼读法教学对小学生的语音是有帮助的。同时，通过观察和分析英语教师上语音课时所运用的方法，我们可以知道合成法和类比法能够让学生通过已学过的知识在没有人帮助的情况下自己读出生词，这大大增强了学生在学习语音时的自信心。同时在实施这些方法时，适当的运用些小游戏，竞赛和奖励能让学生在乐中学习并且增强了课堂的效率。

1.1 The Background of the Research

With the globalization of the world economy, English has become a main media for communication in the world, thus English education is becoming an important part in many countries’ civic education, including China where Ss are going to learn English at Grade 3 in public school. Well, in some private schools, English are learnt even from the kindergarten or Grade 1. From above, we can know that the Chinese pay more and more attention to English learning. And for daily communication, English pronunciation has a direct impact on the effects of expression and mutual understanding. So English pronunciation learning is very important to foreign language learners and there is a growing concern about English pronunciation teaching in the foreign language teaching field. Therefore, an efficient phonetic teaching strategy is needed for EFL learners, especially students in their early childhood which is the optimal timing of learning phonetics. And children have some advantages in learning a foreign language compared to adults, especially in acquiring good pronunciation and intonation. Not only are they good at imitation and brave enough in trying things out, but curious and motivated to learn new things. These are all benefits to introduce a foreign language at the primary level. 自然拼读法在小学语音教学中的应用(2):http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_45505.html
