英语听力水平低下对大学生英语学习的影响

The Impact of Low Level of Listening Proficiency on English Majors' English Learning in University

听力在二语习得中占据重要作用,但是国内学者鲜有研究英语听力与其他英语技能及学习信念的关系,本研究以四名英语专业大学生为例,采用个案的方式,探究了英语听力能力低下对于大学生英语学习的影响。笔者通过访谈和学习日志收集数据,并通过类属分析的方法进行数据分析。研究结果表明,英语听力能力低下不仅影响其他英语技能的提高(尤其是口语),还会让参与者产生焦虑的情绪,甚至还会影响学习者的自我效能。
