Abstract
With the development of the educational reform, the traditional English teaching aids in middle school can no longer keep up with the trend. In this case, CAI is put in an important place in English teaching in middle school. And as to English teaching in middle school, reading teaching still plays a critical role which can cultivate and improve students’ comprehension of English texts. By using computer assisted instruction, teachers can show the texts, graphics, images, animations and sounds visually and vividly to the students，which makes the lesson more interesting and easier to understand. Although CAI gradually becomes a good choice, some problems still exist in teaching procedure. Taking the ‘The Story of Xi Wang’ (8AU5 Oxford English) as a model of reading teaching, this thesis attempts to explore the use of CAI in each step of TBLT in detail and discuss the advantages of CAI in reading teaching. At the end of the thesis, some useful suggestion for teachers and students are presented.
