Therefore, teacher talk plays a crucial part in anizing classroom teaching and the process of language acquisition of learners. The targets for most of the researches that have been conducted on teacher talk are all about inservice English teachers, but little about preservice teachers. It is universally acknowledged that the preservice teachers in normal universities are not senior learners of English, but also new teachers who lack teaching experience. Therefore, the research of teacher talk on student teacher embodies great significance. Guided by the Input Hypothesis, Output Hypothesis, Interactive Hypothesis, the present study is conducted to analyze the TT based on the author herself During four months of action research, a series of methods, like questionnaires, interview and interpreting the teacher talk and so on, are used. This thesis has great significance both in improving the teacher talk of the author herself and making preparation for the later teaching. The result shows that 1) TaskBased Language Teaching is useful in English class teaching, which enable to incite students to take part in the classroom activities. 2) Instructional words, as one of the vital parts of TT, play an important part in connecting the exchanges in the teaching steps. By using instructional words, teacher can clearly illustrate the rules of some tasks, so students can finish those tasks without difficulty. 3) It is very important for teachers to interact with students, but not just talk to them. Therefore, it is very essential for teachers to train the way of questioning, and the questions or instruction that teachers give to students should be clear and straight to the point. 4) As a crucial part of teacher talk, appropriate teacher feedback can help students master the target language. By using the appropriate teacher feedback, teachers can stimulate students’ motivation on study. 5) The improvement of teacher talk can have positive result on the students’ scores. The present study is only a tentative one and there are still some limitations. Some other proposals are needed to put forward so as to trigger more valuable contributions in this field． Key words: teacher talk。本研究以本人為研究對(duì)象，以 Krashen 的輸入假設(shè)、 Swain 的輸出假設(shè)和 Long 的交互假設(shè)為理論依據(jù)，通過(guò)問卷調(diào)查、訪談和課堂錄音轉(zhuǎn)錄等研究方法，進(jìn)行為期四個(gè)月的教師話語(yǔ)特征的行動(dòng)研究，探討自己作為實(shí)習(xí)教師的課堂話語(yǔ)特征，從而改善自己的教師話語(yǔ)，為今后的教學(xué)做準(zhǔn)備。 關(guān)鍵詞 ：教師課堂話語(yǔ)；行動(dòng)研究；程曉堂教師話語(yǔ)分析四原則 An Action Research of Improving a Junior English Preservice Teacher’s Teacher Talk __________________________________________________________________________ III Table of Contents ABSTRACT......................................................................................................................I 中文摘要 .........................................................................................................................
