In China, many people begin learning English with full enthusiasm at very young age. However, it is difficult to master a foreign language.

Both these motivations are crucial in process of leaning. And finally the author discusses the strategies on how to stir and maintain students’ learning motivation accordingly.

摘要:随着经济全球化的发展,英语作为使用最广泛的语言,已变得日益重要与受欢迎。因此,在中国,很多人在很小的时候就开始积极地学习英语。然而,掌握一门外语并不容易。在众多影响英语学习的因素中,动机起着举足轻重的作用。早在十八世纪五十年代, Gardner and Lambert 就把动机分成工具型动机和融入型动机两大类.此后大量研究都显示,在英语学习中,拥有融入型动机的人能取得成功。随着社会的不断进步,人们的观点也开始关注工具型动机对学生学习第二外语的影响。本论文旨在探究这两种动机与学习成就间的关系。作者通过对屏边高级中学119名学生的调查访问发现,在英语学习中,大多数拥有融入型动机的学生确实能取得更好的成功,但是,只有部分拥有工具型动机的学生能取得较好的成绩。通过这些探究,文章最后探讨了如何激发和保持学生积极的学习动机。
