摘 要:英语课堂沉默现象普遍存在于中小学以及大学课堂中，特别是边远地区的英语课堂上表现得尤为突出。为了了解造成学生英语课堂沉默的因素，本文对彝良县第一中学高二年级两个班一百名学生进行了调查问卷，并对两位英语教师进行了访谈。通过调查研究，笔者发现导致英语课堂沉默的主要因素有：1.组织因素：班级规模较大；班级气氛不稳定。2.学生自身因素：性格差异；爱面子；学生的自信心和勇气不足；恐惧心理，不敢挑战教师权威。3.教师因素：教师自身素质偏低；教学经验不足，导致教师不能正确使用恰当的教学方法。
根据上述原因，笔者尝试着从提高教师素质，改善教学方法，创建和谐的师生关系等方面给出一些建议，旨在以有效的方式打破农村地区中学英语课堂中存在的沉默现象。
