1. Introduction

With the further deepening of China’ s opening-up policy, the development of global economy and cultural exchanges, English communicative competence is increasingly valued and the importance of oral English becomes prominent. As a result, the need of elites with good oral English is rising. Currently, most of schools begin to emphasize oral English teaching and the development of students’ communicative competence.

Unfortunately, regardless of the importance of oral English, the current situation of studying and teaching in junior middle school is not pleasing. In most junior middle schools, the traditional “spoon-feeding” is still the leading method, which has a lot of disadvantages. Students are lack of consciousness, willpower and motivation to speak English. A considerable number of students have not recognized the importance of oral English. They are also unwilling to spend much time improving oral English. Students’ motivation to learn English is not clear and they feel anxious from time to time. In this thesis, the author hopes to provide some help to improve teachers’ oral English and teaching methods by studying the strategies of improving oral English of junior middle school students.  新课标背景下提高初中生英语口语的策略研究:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_66325.html
