The first possible difficulty an English teacher may encounter in his or her endeavor to make Eng-lish class more communicative may be students’ reluctance to participate.But there are reasonsbehind this seeming reluctance.Based on a recent survey,the paper analyzes students’ participa-tion psychology and both the subjective and objective factors,which may affect students’ activeparticipation in class.The writer of the paper believes that getting students started is the initialstep towards active learning and fruitful teaching.It is proposed that efforts made to get studentsinvolved should focus not only on forms of activities but also on their contents,on skill integra-tion and on establishing cooperative relationships between teacher and students and among stu-dents.
