Introduction: According to the thoroughgoing policy of opening to the outside world in our country , also with the new situation of joining in WTO and hosting the Olympic games 2008 , English has become a more common feature in todays society . The schools at all lev
5、els also enhance the English teaching, even the Kindergarden .

For languag

7、age .2. Definition of Body Language what is Body Language? It should be spoken of the Nonverbal social intercourse and the Nonverbal behavior. In human social intercourse process, specially the oral communication , people have some body movement while talking , such as body posture, countenance , ge
8、sture and so on. They are also delivering the information, making a set of system which is equal to the language signal one, the Nonverbal social intercourse (Yu Aihong,2002). People call the behavior for using the nonverbal method to communicate, Nonverbal Behavior. Body Language is expressing how
9、one feels by the way one sits, stands, moves, etc rather than by words (Oxford Advanced Learners English-Chinese Dictionary , 2001).3. Teachers some mistakes in English teaching As everyone knows, the classroom teaching is one of the most important ways that the students learn English. As far as the
10、 English teaching in many schools is concerned, teachers have to arouse the students interest so that they may learn better. There are many ways to arouse the students interest and help them to learn better, and body language used in English teaching is one of them. However, English teachers seldom
11、realize that they should use proper body language during their teaching process . They just consider the situation all the students are attending to the lecture when a teacher has his class to be a good one. Actually, the fact is not so simple as they think . In English teaching process, there is su
12、ch a phenomenon yet : Although with the same teaching materials, the students , the teachers knowledge and experience, the teaching effect is completely different . Some teachers classes are very interesting, the classroom atmosphere is so brisk that everyone is active to answer the questions and li
13、stens to the teacher carefully ; while some teachers classes are so boring that almost all the students are“In one place physically, but another place in mind and heart.” Why there is such a phenomenon? The main reason is whether the teacher could have his lesson vivid and attract the students atten
14、tion ; whether the teacher can stir up the students thirst for knowledge . The educationist of former Soviet Union Sue ( Jin yule, 2000 ) once said : If the teacher does not try to surge up the students motion, then the knowledge can only cause a kind of apathetic attitude, and a motionless affectio
15、n can only cause the fatigue. Therefore , if the teacher wants to have the lessons lasting vivid , he can not use that kind of model for just speaking inflexiblely on the platform , but should make use of the body language fittingly , accurately and proficiently. 4. The necessity and importance of u
16、sing body language in English teachingIn order to evaluate the true role of English in the school system, it is important for the teachers who are not native speakers to evaluate their knowledge of and ability to use English (Fraid Dubin and Elite Olshtain, 2002). English teaching is really a key pa
17、rt of the school education. In school education, body language plays a positive role in cultivating the students characters. Body language is also an important media through which people communicate with each other. Briefly speaking , Body Language is expressing a certain meaning of a kind of silent
18、 language by gesture , manner and countenance , which includes eyesight language, facial language, hand language, body language and so on . According to experts, our non-verbal language communicates about 50% of what we really mean (voice tonality contributes 38%) while words themselves contribute a
19、 mere 7%. Our bodies send out messages constantly and often we dont recognize that were communicating a lot more than we realize ( S., Chen, D., Watts, J., 1992 ). The behavioral scientists tell us that almost the whole body language can be used as the manners for human communication and be served f
20、or the teaching.The United States psychologist Albert Melabin, (Zuang Jinying, Li Zhencun,1995) 1968, made an experiment to prove that the total result of the information=7% writing+38% tone+55% countenance and movement. The linguist Mr Lu says: The foreign language teacher should be able to perform
21、 and dance for joy , make a vivid gesture , movement and countenance as an actor , should not always be gentle and cultivated or just stand stiffly on the platform.( Guo Xuehua ,1999). Body Language not only replenishes and deepens the verbal language , but also takes an unsubstitutive effect on the
22、 verbal language . If the teacher can use the Body Language fittingly , accurately and proficiently to assist the teaching in the classroom , it can not only draw on the students attention, bring up their study interest, but also enable them the accurate understanding of language contents , deepen t
23、heir impression. From the above we can learn , the use of body language in English teaching is necessary and practical. In the English teaching , body language is frequently used to improve the teaching effect and the students ability.5. The concrete application of body language with Eyesight, Count
24、enance, Gesture and Manner in English teaching Eyesight, Countenance, Gesture and Manner are the four key attributes of physical delivery, or Body Languge. Body Language will help determine whether the teachers successfully gain and hold the students interest. Teachers graceful body language helps t
