Two, the reform of teaching materials
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The author through the learning of English Majors in the school Sophomore's understanding, found several major problems currently used reading textbook "modern university English": This article is long, difficult, a single theme (literary works), after-school practice monotone, unit plate arranged single, no reading skills. The advantages of this material is also very prominent, large amount of information, rich content. At the same time, the author compares the popular reading materials on the market, such as "English Extensive Reading Course", the teaching materials focus on taste, style and diverse; each unit four part, text reading and exercises, reading skills, fast reading practice and the extracurricular reading expansion. "Beyond the reading course" concept in English, the teaching material to mainly the culture of English speaking countries as the starting point, this paper is novel, the strong sense of the times, each unit has a main text, a text in the text space, there are three essays related reading skills and self-rated reading.

Comprehensive analysis of the above several sets of teaching materials, the author thinks that good reading materials should be genre diversity, rich in content, have the skills to practice, not only interesting, readable and can both examination requirements. So the author and his colleagues put forward the idea of the design of teaching materials, the 1 reading to a lot of reading, improve reading speed, is "speed"; the 2 reading should expand the scope of knowledge and improve the cognitive ability, is "spread"; the 3 reading to stimulate students' interest in reading, reading habit is formed, "stimulation"; 4 extensive reading to improve the students' ability of thinking, deep understanding of the world time, is to "speculation". This is the "4S" teaching reform concept, based on this idea, the author participated in compiling a set of "4S College English reading course". This tutorial a set consists of 4 volumes, each volume is divided into 12 to 15 units, consisting of 3 main article of each unit, the article before a part is the unit of reading skills, thinking of key and difficult sentences, word summary, aims to highlight key points, for teaching and learning is to guide; the skills of reading instruction and practice in the next first articles main article; there are 3-5 article exercises behind the third article article, this part of the exercise with professional level Four Questions quite; and finally the part is called happy reading, including jokes, riddles, image reading, vocabulary expansion, and the discovery teaching of reading, not only the teacher puts forward a question, such as "in Maupassant's" the necklace ", how much is this necklace worth?" Through the student independently find a way to solve the problems of reading materials.
The preparation of reading materials to guide the reform of textbook, textbook compilation should be suitable for the general level of undergraduate students learning level, to read the method as the instruction, the incentive to improve students' autonomous learning, and gradually improve their English reading level.

Three, the reform of teaching mode
??????????????????????????????????????
According to the teaching syllabus, the author puts forward three basic principles of classroom teaching: training methods, increase knowledge, the use of new knowledge.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Laufer(2001)??,“?????????,???????????,?????????”?????????????????,???????????????”??????????????????????(D.P.Ausubel)???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????,????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
First of all, good method can effectively improve the efficiency of reading, reading a few basic reading methods such as, scanning, skimming, search read, no longer tired out. The author proposes to summarize the methods of reading from the vocabulary and discourse dimensions. Vocabulary is the foundation of learning, Laufer (2001) thinks, "whether it is native or foreign language, do not know the meaning of words in a discourse, it is impossible to understand the text". Vocabulary and vocabulary ability level, directly affect the students to read and write the development of listening and speaking ability". Vocabulary teaching is always the focus of English teaching, according to Ausubel (D.P.Ausubel) theory of meaning, meaningful learning is better than the mechanical memorizing words. Vocabulary needed to put to better in the pages of memory, through extensive reading, encounter a new word, the first thing to do is to guess the meaning of context. Specifically it is through hyponymy, synonymy, antonymy, for example, definition, word formation to guessing the meaning of a word. In the extensive reading in addition to grasp the text structure understanding the meaning but also to macro, only the conscious use of discourse structure theory, it can be more effective to cultivate and improve students' reading ability. Specifically speaking, reading the need of training students' logical thinking, practice summary writing, writing sequence analysis, to understand the types of genres, classification of understanding of the author, the correct inference of implied meaning, judge the cause and result, judge the facts and opinions, to distinguish the comparison and contrast, ask questions and solve problems etc..
Secondly, how to increase the knowledge, the author puts forward the English Reading Course "four in one" teaching mode. Reading course is not an independent course, extensive reading and the other course closely, such as reading, grammar, survey of Britain and America, writing, translation. "Four in one" teaching mode, which is the basis of "vocabulary, grammar is the guarantee, translation is improved, the writing is to promote". English teaching reform in recent years, the use of focus words in the sentence, according to Ausubel's discovery learning theory, the learning content is not the way to the conclusion presented to the students, but asked the students cognitive structure is incorporated in the final before the first to engage in certain mental activities, such as re arranged and re organization or conversion of learning content. So when teaching vocabulary, should change the direct presentation, refer to the use of corpus in vocabulary and grammar had to put in a sentence, let the students to think and discover the rules of use of vocabulary and grammar usage habits. The author discovered in the teaching, can still have a large distance between read and be able to translate the article, therefore, to deeply understand the article, can translation is test reading effect way. Writing is an external manifestation of reading ability. Reading gradually understand, can be converted to the correct expression of writing. Most closely associated with reading the writing is to write summary (summary), summary writing is to improve students' ability of summed up, and exercise their logical thinking. In the teaching process through a full range of training, integration of resources, to achieve good teaching effect.
Use new knowledge refers to the known proposition directly convert to new situations similar to existing practice, "". Therefore, in the process of teaching reading should pay attention to the role of practice, guide the students to active learning, understanding the problem, solve the problem. In addition to the conventional selection out of vocabulary, reading comprehension exercises, the author designs a new practice mode is "contact problem". Is the teacher asks a question but does not provide the reading materials, let the students after class autonomous find reading material, and find the problem from the material of the answer. The specific application of this method can reflect the starting current teaching mode, and to mobilize the enthusiasm of the students and make them solve problems independently. Design of extensive reading class should be flexible, the teacher to create a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere for students, guide students to discuss the questions using the method of reading learning and new knowledge, infer other things from one fact, solve problems independently.
The reform of four, test mode
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????,??????
Testing is an important means of educational evaluation. The test to the guiding role of teaching. Testing should reflect the three principles: credibility, the test can accurately reflect the real level of the students; effectiveness, master level not only effectively test the course knowledge, and test results can reflect the expected effect test; development, not only in line with the actual situation of the development of students, so that students can find their own problems, and explore the potential, continue to learn. The test also needs the ability to reflect the accumulation and application of students, mainly by means of vocabulary, syntax, grammar, translation, etc. The study students to use the accumulated knowledge ability to solve practical problems, so in reading papers will normally be arranged as follows plate is fast reading, read carefully, word choice, translation practice, summary writing etc..
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????retall the story?,??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Traditional test pattern is the final exam, to test the students' learning situation to test paper method. But a single test mode is difficult to fully test the student's learning situation, so the author put forward the concept of comprehensive test. In addition to not only traditional paper, extracurricular reading to increase the link in the regular teaching, present in two ways, one is direct reading materials; one is the discovery teaching of reading, by setting the problem, motivating students will seek the answers independently, this method can mobilize the enthusiasm of students, learning interest, and increase the amount of reading. So at the time of testing, students are usually reading accumulation is an aspect of testing. Because it is difficult to examine the communication ability of traditional English exam, and the students English communicative ability is low. Then another proposed test mode, let the students oral retelling Stories (retall the story), a way to focus on the inspection of cultivating the students' communicative competence. By combining a variety of test mode can inspect the students study more comprehensive, more accurately grasp the importance and difficulties in teaching, improve teaching effectiveness.
Five, conclusion
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
