The affection of teachers，body language on the students is reflected not only by establish ing a good exammple，bnt also shortening the teacher-student estrangement by which a more ha monious studying atmosphere is created，As a matter of fact，teachers，friendly appearance can greatly eneourage the students，studying enthusiasn， Furthernore，the characteristics of theoretie and abstraction of knowledge also requires the vivid，dramatic and an aceessib le gestures to make it specific and figurative，As a result，the students， interest is moti rated and the effect of teaching is greatly improved 1 The necessity and importance of using body language in English teaching English teaching is a key part of the school education，With the English teaching methods eform，more and more English teachers organize the teaching process in English so that they may realize the Communicated English，The Communicated English means that teachers instruc  tthe students and explain questions basically in English，and the students are also requir ed to use English in class，Contemporarily，however，the students in the middle school can' t speak very well; neither can they understand why they should use different tones in diffe rent time or situation; their vocabulary and expressive ability are limited too，These limi tations made it djfficult to realize the Communicated English in the classes，hccording to the students”present level and practical situation，body language is required，For example, hen a teacher gives an instruction: “You two，please come to the blackboard ”The student Scan easily understand it if the teacher looks at (or points to) some tmo students，Then the teacher points to the blackboard，The students will carry out the order without obstacl even if they don' t hear the key wards “blackboard”clearly，Furthermore，teachers usually have to explain some language points，and at this time，they have to differentiate the cla ssroom expressions and the examples，Take it for example，we ought to use the form have do ne” such as "Have you finished that job jet? ”To make the students understand clearly，a eacher has lots of ways， To do it by speed，he uses a cammon speed when reading “we ought use the form 'have done'，and reads slowly when giving examples; he can also get the eff ect by repeating the example "Have you finished that job jet ; a more frequent way is to us gestures to lay emphasis on the key points when he said "have done"(emphasizing it in voi ce at the same time)，he reaches out his index finger，pauses in the air，and then gives ou t the example，This action will usually give the students a deep impression，From the above We can learn， the use of body language in English teaching is necessary and practical，In the English teaching in middle schools，body language is frequently used to improve the tea ching effect and the students' ability 111，The conerete application of the body language in 1istening，speaking，read ing and writing 1 Body language helps to inprove listening The Greek philosopher Epictetus ever wittily said: “Nature has given man one tongue and two ears that he may hear twice as meh as he speaks.”From the saying we can learn how import ant the listening is in our daily life，To understand others is a basic purpose in English teaching，and teachers often train the students，listening accordingly，In this process，if the body language is used，the effect will be better，When beginning a new lesson，the tea cher marrates the story outline in English。The body language may help，For example，a teac her can stretch his arms slowly when he says “She is in a very big room; he can open his e yes Widely With mouth opened when he says “She is so beautiful a lady"，As a result，the st udents Will have such an impression: She is very beautiful indeed; a teacher who imitates + he crying or the movement of the animals under the prenise of teaching order will surely ac hieve a better effect 2，Body language helps to inprove spesking The spoken language is one of the important ways to communicate，so we should try to develo the students，ability of speaking，Factually they are helped to reach the aim in a certai m degree by their teacher's body language， The contemporary emphasis is gradually laid on spoken English teaching，The first lesson of every unit im Senior English begins with dialogue，The teaching progranms require the teach ers to organize the class to practice English according to the characteristics of dialogue. Generally speaking，the body language can arouse and sustain the students” interest of lea ming and using English。In the English class，the teachers should not only use body langua  es themselves，but also ask the students to use them according to the different situation Take it for example，the first lesson in Unit one，Book one is about the time when the new Students first meet，and they don' t know each other， So a teacher can introduce himself fi st，such as: “Hello，everyone，nice to meet you here，Now T11 introduce mself to you 由 name is Arthur，I like playing basketball，for，it makes me mach stronger; I like playing chess，for，it makes me more clever; and T like reading books，for，"reading makes one perf ect'，During the introduction，the teacher should use the new vocabularies and sentence st uctures together with a vivid expression and mating gestures as possibly as he can lte sni 1les when he says hello to the class; he shakes hands with some students saying “Nice to mee t you"; he writes name domn on the blackboard; he imitates the action of dribbling and shoo ting at the basketball，playing chess and turning pages to explain his hobby，After his int roduction，the teacher can create a cireumstance for the students to practice: Mary and 本 ack are new classmates，They are walking together in the street，and they meet one of Jack sold friends，Yangpei。 Then Yangpei and Mary are introduced to each other by Jacke ”Ahfte T the students，practice the dialogue is introduced naturally from it，Usually，the applica tion of body language in different situations will result in an attracting and suecessful 1 3，Body language helps to inprove reading The purpose of Senior English teaching is to train the students，preliminary ability of usi ng spoken and written English，In the senior school，we lay emphasis one the reading abilit ythat serves the students，further study，Here we mainly mention the helpfulness for readi ng aloud(关读)，Reading aloud helps the students to get a correct pronuneiation and intonat ion and to develop the combination of vocabularies，pronuneiation，spelling and meaning，Fu thermore it also helps the students to find out the article's internal feelings and apprec iate the beau
