二、学习者特征分析
Students have a certain English foundation and language learning ability, and their ability of language cognition is relatively strong, which is the advantage of English learning. They are about to face the senior high school entrance examination and hope to find a good learning method to increase their marks. But since they came to junior high school, some of them have been playing and have poor self-discipline. These students are easily distracted, but the classroom atmosphere is good. As a result, group activities, classroom games and other exercises are used to arouse students’ resonance and stimulate students’ interest in learning.
