Before students enter Grade Eight, they’ve already mastered some English knowledge after several years’ of English learning, and most students’ enthusiasm is high. However, since Grade Eight, some students begin to lose interest in English and lag behind other students and the polarization of students may further increase. Therefore, with the increasing difficultly of English, the teacher should handle this situation carefully, and use various methods to motivate students so that they can make continuous progress and improvement.
