摘要:当今世界说英语的人越来越多，英语作为国际交往的语言也发挥着越来越大的作用。随着国际上各个领域之间交往增加，外语学习，特别是语言交际能力的培养越来越受到人们的重视。
但是，目前大学生英语口语能力欠缺，哑巴英语现象严重。我们经常可以看见这种状况，在英语口语课堂上，教室里一片安静，学生们都低着头，只有几个同学站起来发言，焦虑因素是这一现象存在的重要因素之一。
本文首先介绍了英语口语的现状，而后阐述了国内外外语焦虑的研究历史和现状。结合传统口语课堂教学，试图探讨中国大学生外语课堂焦虑现象产生的原因，全面了解大学生在外语口语课堂上的焦虑感。最后提出相应的解决对策，以求控制焦虑感，创造一个焦虑水平适中的教学环境，提高学生口语表达能力。
