摘要随着知识的大爆发以及中国经济和社会的迅猛发展，英语口语无论是在工作还是在生活中都扮演着很重要的角色。但是就当前中国学生学习口语的现状来看，不容乐观，特别是在中学，学生的英语口语水平普遍不是太高，发音不纯，羞于开口。经调查，一些研究者认为情景教学法对提高英语口语有一定的帮助，因为学习语言一定要有语言情境才能学得好，而情景教学法强调的就是语言学习的真实情景。本文就是将教学法理论与实践相结合，阐述了情景教学法在中学英语口语教学中的重要性，并探讨了此教学法在口语教学中的合理应用从而更好地提高学生的口语水平。24940

Abstract
With the explosion of knowledge and the rapid development of China’s economy and society, oral English plays an important role in our work and daily life. However, if we see from the present situation of oral English leaning of Chinese students, it is not so optimistic, especially that in Junior Middle school. The spoken English average level is not high and students are too shy to speak English fluently and purely. According to the investigation, some researchers think that situational teaching method is helpful for improving oral English, because learning a language must have a language environment which emphasizes the real situation of language learning. This paper makes the combination of the theory and practice, expounds the importance of STM in the oral English teaching in middle schools, and explores the reasonable application of the teaching method in oral teaching, which is in order to improve the students' oral English.

I. Introduction
With the development of economy and society, English becomes more and more important in people's daily life. After Chinese educational system reform, the situational teaching method comes into being. It just follows some rules of linguistics. Situational language teaching is originally called Oral Approach, which is developed by British applied linguists from the 1930’s to 1960’s (Shu Dingfang, 1999), and it has provided guidance to many well-known EFL/ESL textbooks and courses, including New Concept English written by Alexander, which is still used in China and known by almost every Chinese English learner. In fact, most books on business English are complied according to this method too. The theory of learning underlying Situation Teaching Method is behaviorism, addressing more the process than the conditions of learning. Palmer and Hornby are the main advocator of the Situation Language Teaching Method (Shu Dingfang, 1999). A good scene will create a harmonious atmosphere between teachers and student, and thus achieves a satisfactory effect. The Situational Teaching Method also has solid theoretical grounds in physiology, psychology, and linguistics. The educationists advocate a new theory that there are many teaching methods but no specific teaching method. Situational Teaching Method is used in the Middle English teaching. To make it simple, the purpose of English learning is “listening and speaking goes first, while reading and writing goes second”. In English teaching, the educational model that is used by teachers in 60% middle schools is Situational Teaching Method , and 80% teachers’ reply in the middle schools is the oral sentence pattern drill, while only 15.43% teachers’ answer in the middle school is “the written test-like exercises"(Mei Deming, 2004.). 情景教学法在初中英语口语教学中的应用:http://www.751com.cn/yingyu/lunwen_18569.html
