Abstract
English reading plays a significant role in English learning. It can be judged not only from the texts, but also from the practical using of English. According to the New English Curriculum for Chinese Primary Schools and Junior/Senior Middle Schools, it requires students be able to read basic articles in English.
In China, Junior high school is the key period during English studying. During the junior high school, students begin to study every aspect of English systematically and comprehensively. A solid grasp of the basic information will have a great help to the future study. According to New English Curriculum for Chinese Primary Schools and Junior/Senior Middle Schools, students begin their English learning in the Grade Three of the primary school. The study of English focuses on words or phrases during the primary school. Until the junior high school, they start to study the sentence and the passage systematically. For them it is really such a huge challenge that the passage is not the thing like the word or the phrase which needs the higher ability. As a result, how to give an efficient English reading class becomes a key question among teachers. In the past, teachers develop the class by themselves which they partly ask students to repeat the sentence again and again and to finish the task. It ignores the practical uses of English which make students lose the atmosphere of learning as well as making them lack the comprehensive language competence. By analyzing shortcomings of traditional teaching methods and looking for the information from the Input Hypothesis and the Affective Filter Hypothesis which suggests that learners are affected by affective factors in foreign language learning, the author automatically begins to think over the possibility of the use of situational approach method on teaching junior high school English reading which has
been put forward before.
Situational teaching method used in English reading has the following advantages.
1.Developing the students' interest in learning.
2. Helping students to understand the passage faster.
3. Improving the students' English reading ability.
In order to research the situational teaching method in junior high school English reading teaching better, the author adopts questionnaires and found the contrast, finally coming to the conclusion that situational teaching method is helpful to improve students' learning enthusiasm, so as to promote English learning.
Key words: junior high school; English reading teaching; the situational method
