On the basis of Krashen's Input Hypothesis and Swain's Output Hypothesis, this paper elaborates the indispensable and critical roles respectively of input and output in language learning, and proposes a concept of balanced input and output in college English teaching. The paper also presents some personal suggestions as to how to bring the balance into teaching.展开更多

The second language acquisition is a cognitive process of understanding and outputting the second language by making use of strategies, which contains language input, learners' linguistic knowledge, and language output. This paper analyzes language input and output theory and then proposes that we should stress language input by practice and interaction and at the same time focus on the role of language output in college English translation teaching.展开更多

Input is the essential preparation for output, while output is the purpose of input, and in turn promotes input. They complement each other and help to improve students' linguistic competence. Comprehensible input and output are equally important in language learning. Therefore, it is unwise to ignore the roles of output in pedagogical situation.展开更多
