本文在关于外语焦虑和英语交际能力在心理学和语言教学中的研究成果的基础上,通过调查问卷,对来自贺州市三所不同学校的高一年级的185名高中生在英语学习中的交际焦虑的现状进行调查,从而了解当前高中生英语学习中交际焦虑的状况。
调查发现交际焦虑确实存在高中生英语学习中且相当普遍。并且根据调查结果, 作者发现交际焦虑产生的外部因素和内部因素。同时,在这次调查中,根据相关研究,作者还提出了降低英语学习中交际焦虑的方法策略,例如,创造活跃轻松的学习氛围。
由于条件和作者自身的经验知识限制,这次调查研究仍然存在一定的局限性。但是在一定程度上,这次调查研究在帮助高中生降低英语学习中的交际焦虑上有一定的启示,从而帮助他们提高英语交际能力,达到外语学习的真正目的。
