It helps to develop students’ interest in learning English. It helps to cultivate students’ communicative ability in the English language. It helps students to master knowledge in a relaxed atmosphere. The traditional English language teaching can’t give students a real situation to practice the knowledge they’ve learned. In classroom, teachers should encourage students to participate in the activities and increase their motivation of learning English. Role-play is a very effective way of developing students’ interest in English learning. It gets rid of the barriers of traditional teaching, creates a relaxed learning environment to stimulate students’ learning enthusiasm.
