中文摘要:随着大学生英语学习的不断深入，传统的以教师教学为主，学生学习为辅的学习模式势必会被以学生自主学习为主，教师指导为辅的新型学习模式所取代。由于学习策略的使用对学习效果有很大的影响，因此，研究英语专业四级考试高分者与低分者的学习策略，是帮助英语专业学生通过英语专业四级考试的有效方法。
本文首先通过对大学应用文理学院英语系06级英语专业四级考试高分者与低分者学习策略的问卷调查，找出英语专业四级考试高分组与低分组在学习策略使用上的差异，之后结合对一名英语专业四级考试高分者与一名低分者的个案研究，分别总结出英语专业四级考试高分者与低分者在学习策略中的特征，从而帮助英语学习者找到或改进适合自己特点的学习策略，提高学习成效。
