Basic-English is a basic course for English majors. It is generally regarded as dull and boring because of its enormous amount of content. The investigation found that most students were reticent in Basic-English class. Therefore,group activities were introduced into everyday teaching. Those activities were appropriately planned to practice the teaching material,and they took the familiar way of presentation but in a new organization. The reticence in class was broken effectively in this way. The research on this teaching action proved that group activities can be generally applied to Basic-English class. In-class group activities can not only help student improve their enthusiasm in learning,communicating and participating in class,but also promote their self-consciousness in class.
