Language is the carrier of culture so learning a language is a process of learning culture.As long as the correct use of learning methods, adhere to the principle of paying equal attention to both language and culture, good English film can effectively foster we students' oral English communication skills and the ability to cross-cultural communication, to achieve the ultimate goal of English studying, to achieve double gains in language and culture.
Film as an audio-visual art, it can truly reflect the social cultures, by creating artistic image, thoughts and emotions of certain age and national spirit.Movie is a mirror of real life, a high degree of unity embodies the mass culture and artistic quality.Good English movie is the overarching culture carrier, which can show the English national culture from many aspects.English movies with English in the native and idiomatic expression, authentic language environment, rich cultural connotation, is the British and American country specific age social life and culture is the most intuitive, most concentrated, most vividly reflected.Film and TV appreciation is a kind of effective studying method, is an important medium for cultural and language studying.The movie is not the ultimate goal, but is the effective means to achieve the study purpose.For us students, English movies can make us more intuitive understanding of the western culture, can cultivate language sense, to improve the listening and speaking skills, expand our cultural background knowledge, improve our English learning motivation, to master English language style, rich language and cultural knowledge and skills.
A, the superiority of the film used in English studying
1, create a complete language situation, raises the students language sense, improve listening and speaking skills.Chomsky thinks that language is a talent, the human is born with a language acquisition mechanism, even without learning can also be in a language environment to stimulate the acquisition.English movie scene simulation is different from the class, as it creates a real language environment, provides a golden opportunity to practice hearing. English movies have language communication in the natural environment, combined with the characters facial expressions, gestures and posture, utmost ground reflect the appeal of language, the language visualize, vivid.Students must be easy to accept the proper language, the language covers language learning pronunciation, intonation, rhythm, language, thought and emotion and so on several big factors.This and learn together, life, emotion and thinking of the English language has more vitality.Students unconsciously when they watching a movie, pure natural acquisition of the pronunciation, intonation and rich native language, and improve English oral communication can easily achieve the ultimate goal of English learning.
2, entertain, stimulate study interest, improve the learning efficiency.Psychological research results show that people remember things they interested in nature, forgetting what they are not interested in.American linguist Krashen's "affective filter hypothesis" that: learning motivation, learning attitude, self-confidence "emotional factors" of language input to play the role of a filter.If learners motivation is big, strong self-confidence, anxiety is small, the language input filtering effect is small, the input is: on the contrary, filtering effect is big, less input.As a result, the students' study enthusiasm for transfer, learning interest is stimulated, accept English ability is stronger.Because the movie theme is extensive, if the circumstances are vivid, image lifelike, full of great appeal, the students interest when you watch the movie "Waterloo Bridge", "Titanic" and "forrest gump", or in a spectacular scene, or in a charming picture, or so pure and deep feelings, or in actor's superb performance left a deep impression to the audience, so that we can be encouraged to feel at the same time, to the plot, to a large number of natural language information input and easily understood.Each time we watch a film, proper attention to collection, accumulation of life's classic statement will such language used in oral communication to make into the familiar accessible to improve the quality of oral English.
3, develope the differences of language and culture, sensitivity, and improve the cross-cultural communicative competence.American scholar Hanvy argues that the sensitivity to the cultural differences is divided into four stages: the first phase is to identify on the surface of the obvious cultural characteristics;The second phase is to identify subtle and meaningful, and their different cultural characteristics: close to the third phase and the second stage, but people's reaction is different;The fourth stage is to be able to do it from the other party standpoint to feel the culture.No matter which stage to cultivate students' cultural sensitivity, movie teaching plays a very important role.English movies can help students better understand western culture, the language of daily life, the western life and way of thinking and many other practical knowledge of English, only understand western culture to the western way of thinking, to stand in the position of the role to feel its culture, in order to better understand and grasp some knowledge of cross-cultural communication, for later communicate with foreigners, barrier-free communication to lay a good foundation.Cultural differences between east and west will be largely reflected in the film language.Such as "collision", "hotel Rwanda", "tower of Babel" and "scrapping" and so on a series of cultural conflict as the theme of the film.In the real environment of English, students through English movies of the narrative, the changes of the relationship between the development of the plot and characters can better understand and Chinese thinking is not the same of foreign culture, truly absorbed the different values between east and west, and the resulting differences in ways of thinking, which will rise to the real language of communication, improve the ability of cross-cultural communication.
Second, the method of using English movies in learningThe selection of reasonable English moviesThe stand or fall of English movies will determine the choice of learning effect.Choose the movie to the learning goal, the students' language level as the criterion, the language cultural information content, whether language content is big, the plot content are healthy, whether their lives and see clear whether authentic pronunciation and intonation.For elementary level students, choose movies mainly theme is easy and simple content for the principle, such as the princess diaries, "the sound of music", "shrek" and "the lion king" and so on;Intermediate level students in addition to learning the language itself, more to improve the understanding of cultural background knowledge of English.So choose something like forrest gump, "braveheart" and other films to learn history: to own level more confident of the students can choose to "nano the legend" and other films, learn some more English in the native and idiomatic expression.Choose the film was also shall comply with the essence of the principles.
2, strengthen the concept of cultural and historical background knowledge before importTeachers should briefly introduce the film's historical and cultural background, main content and character relationship, activate students' schema knowledge in the brain, to help it better to accept new knowledge.They can also put forward some problems, let the students watch with a problem, encourage students in the process of watching movies to think of myself as one of the characters.And with the role, the advocacy, produce immersive feel.So not only make students into watching movies best, more focused, and can better understand how to properly use what they have learned in the practical context of knowledge, thus reducing the communication of "pragmatic failure".
3, view pieces after the strengthening of the language knowledge and application Behaviorism theory as a process of habit formation, the language habits and habits form need to constantly strengthen, response to stimuli.The language learning process is a process of input, absorption, output.According to the balance between input and output point of view, from the input, storage until the output stage is called "incubation period".Teachers should help us to consciously to shorten the incubation period.Teachers as well as for students to design some activities, such as retelling the film plot, role playing, problem discussion, write your own thoughts, analyzing the characteristics of the main character's personality, recite classical dialogue, film dubbing, etc.Let the student to apply learned in the expression to be discussed with writing, so as to improve the level of speaking and writing.Prevent students just learn from the film of a large number of idioms and expressions with the passage of time and forget, can't internalize into their own knowledge.
Third, the conclusion English movie content is rich, outstanding cultural features, corpora, and the most close to the student life, is a good helper of foreign language studying.English film has the characteristics of language, images, audio series, and can make sound and image, language and scene, visual stimulation and auditory stimuli.So that the students in the foreign language environment, all kinds of sense organs and at the same time, is the student learning is an effective means of language knowledge and culture knowledge, help to improve the teaching effect.Watching English movies, not only help to language teaching, also help to language learning, students will benefit, through the original films in English teaching so that the students in the language environment, truly "live to learn, master the pronunciation, vocabulary, sentence patterns, thinking and culture, in the language environment when in Rome, do as the Romans do, really do" practice ", to understand or to express, exchange and communication.To learn English from the real "live".
