摘 要:本论文主要通过实地的问卷调查了解大学生学习英语的现状，探讨影响其口语流利性的因素及提高英语口语流利性策略的问题。近年来，随着我国对外开放的不断扩大，素质教育的深入开展，人们“面对面”的国际交流机会不断增加，言语交际能力的培养受到前所未有的重视。英语口语的学习的最终目的是学生能习得清晰、流畅、达意、得体的英语口语。大学英语教学对英语听读写能力的要求有了明显的提高，但是大学生的口语水平仍然跟不上时代的步伐。现代大学提倡学生自主学习，而本文所提及的模仿法，预制模块和扩大词汇量的自主学习策略是一个比较好的尝试。高校学生英语口语水平的高低程度主要取决于其语言表达的流利性与正确性。其中，口语的流利性是基本要求。通过对比国内外英语口语流利性的不同研究的分析，本论文力图为英语口语流利性的培养提供自主学习的建议。
