Abstract:To improve English reading ability is one of the most important goals of senior English learning and teaching in basic education in China. However, many students don’t make obvious progress in reading ability after three-year learning. Because they are in the interim from junior school to senior school, it is essential for the first-year students in senior high school to pay attention to the learning and training of reading strategies. This paper is designed to investigate and analyze the current situation on the English reading strategies used by fires-year students in Shilin Minority Senior High School. From the questionnaire and interview, it finds that significant differences exist on the application and awareness of reading strategies between successful and less successful first-year students. Furthermore, this study provides some suggestions to help students improve their reading ability. On one hand, students should enhance their awareness of using reading ability. On the other hand, teachers should train students to use effective and appropriate reading strategies based on different types of articles.
Key words: English reading strategies; difference; application; awareness of strategies
中文摘要:在我国基础教育阶段，提高英语阅读能力是高中学习和教学的最重要目标之一。然而，经过三年的学习，许多学生的阅读能力并没有得到明显提高。对于正处于初高中过渡时期的高一学生来说，重视阅读策略的学习和训练是极其必要的。本文通过问卷及访谈的方式，调查并分析了石林民族中学高一学生使用阅读策略的现状，从而发现学习较成功和较不成功者在阅读的使用和意识方面存在很大差异。同时，本论文提出一些相关建议，旨在帮助学生提高阅读能力。一方面，学生应该提高自身使用阅读策略的意识。另一方面，老师应该训练学生根据不同类型的文章使用有效且适当的阅读策略。
