2. Literature Review
Speaking is one of main language output skills. American linguist Krashen put forward the Second Language Acquisition Theory in the 1980s, which attracted much attention in both linguistic field and language teaching circle (Krashen, 1981: 55).
Effected by Krashen’s input hypothesis, English teaching focused on the language input at that time. Teachers had stressed students’ listening, reading, but ignored the language output for a long time.
