本文从教学实用的角度重新就使用语料库的正、反两方面的观点作了探讨与评论。作者认为语料库有可能成为语言教学中最为有用的工具之一,但若要充分发挥其作用,则仍然需要广大研究人员、教师与语料库设计人员的共同努力。文中还认为,学习者语料库对中国的英语学习者将会十分有用。

This paper is going to re-examine the pros and cons of using corpus in language teaching from a practical aspect. I would argue that corpus can be one of the most useful tools in language teaching, and to maximize its usefulness, more efforts are still needed from researchers, teachers, and corpus designers. Also the paper suggests that learner's corpus would be very useful for Chinese students.
