2.国内外研究现状（文献综述）：
In recent years, at abroad, foreign language educational circles emphasize to put the excitation of the students’ interests in an important position, as well as to let the students study foreign language in an easy and pleasant atmosphere all specially.
“Interest is the best teacher.” The class which uses English songs can train a student the habit of using the brain, mouth and ears ect., the inherent motivation, the personality and the curiosity. Here, the activity class is supposed to achieve this purpose. At the same time, we can see that the English songs play an important role in English teaching.
At aboard, musical activities had made a great development in advance many years ago. In their foreign language teaching, the teacher pays more attention to arouse student’s interest by using some activity skills and to urge the students to be able to express their ideas courageously and to take part in the class activities actively by the guide of the teachers. The teachers are gradually aware of the value of foreign language songs. As（Lo and Li 1998) Songs provide a break from classroom routine, and that learning English through songs develops a non-threatening classroom atmosphere in which the four
language skills (reading, listening, writing, and speaking)can be enhanced. The belief that songs provide enjoyment and develop language skills is also noted by several other authors. The enjoyment of learning language through song is directly related to affective factors. For example, language teachers in Turkey, have been using English language songs to help children improve their English thorough enjoyable activities.
But in China, especially in inner areas, teaching and learning are often separated in the teaching process. Teachers can not arouse students’ learning interest. Therefore, some students always sit in the class but absence of mind. They don’t join in teacher’s activities with their empty heads. In that case, the class which uses the English songs means that students have fun in the classroom without pressure, not mention learn something from it. It should be improved the ability of arousing students’ interest. In fact, the students are not really join in the teacher’s activity. English songs, which combine their pleasing rhythms with colorful meanings, are characterized by their strong artistic quality and wide audiences. However, English songs, regarded as their amateur entertainment by teachers and students for years, have been neglected in class. As a result, they have failed to be utilized and developed. As a curriculum resource, English songs should be actively developed by teachers to stimulate their class, to improve their teaching mode and efficiency, and to better the students’ qualities in all-round way（Wei 2007）.
With the development of society, the abroad foreign language teaching theory of English teaching has produced active effect to our country; a lot of scholar has carried out investigation and discussion on English songs application.
In the field of theory, It has been said that children have a natural musical taste and that play is the only activity that they take seriously. Carl Mar x said “music is human being's second language.” A large amount of literature which discusses the value of using songs in ESL/EFL classrooms is not empirically based. However, based upon teacher experience, the first hand knowledge of what actually occurs in a language classroom is, in fact, very valuable. Some experts point out that singing English songs is an important manner to assistance of English study. It combines study with play, both can cultivate students’ interests to learn English and make them study pronunciation, intonation and grammar, improve listening and speaking, and understand the cultures of English—speaking countries.（Wang 2008）It is also suggested in junior high school English teaching method, fully utilize exercising the ability lesson, setting about, coming to improve English studying from student's interest, hobby, and personality and specialty. The outdoor activities class has effect and significance in studying in English. (Zhang, 1992) Meanwhile, The New English Curriculum Standard mentions “the activities can not only be restricted in the classroom teaching, but be extended to the study and life outside the
classroom.”The planed English activities outside the classroom can broaden the sight of the students, enlarge their knowledge and develop their abilities to use their mouths, hands and brain so as to make the class doing in the air of happiness.
In practice, at present a few scholars think that social intercourse is the purpose for foreign language teaching, as well as the means of foreign language teaching (Tang, 1997). So-called the principle of social intercourses is to require that we make great efforts in the process of teaching to create the environment for English studying, to try the best to imitate social intercourse, to fully utilize the function of social intercourse, and to make every effort to foster the ability of the students to apply English in true social intercourse environment. In Junior middle school, English activity class is going to use English to carry out social intercourse in true environment, singing English songs is a good way to achieve this aim, and to break the bottleneck of English study.
Therefore, According to the research and study of the English songs in classroom, the thesis makes a brief discussion to the application of English songs in junior middle school.
