Abstract:In recent years, researchers have found the great importance of Schema Theory in English learning, especially to the listening supports in improving listening comprehension. Accordingly, various studies on listening supports have been evoked both in the foreign countries and in China. Nevertheless, most of these studies focused their attention mainly on postgraduates. Therefore, this article specifies the training effect of introduction of background knowledge and pre-introduction of the associated vocabulary in listening comprehension on college students。 

　　　In this study, I first carried out our training experiment of listening supports on the chosen subjects, and then I did a pre-test to look into the current situation concerning their listening comprehension. At the end of the training, I did a final test and finished a questionnaire. Through the tests and the questionnaire, I found out that these two kinds of listening supports helped students in improving listening comprehension and students prefered to the introduction of background information.I hope that this study will shed some insights on the listening supports teaching and autonomous learning in college.

摘要:近几年来，研究者发现图式理论在英语教学中的重要性，尤其是英语听力辅助法对学生英语听力理解有很大的促进作用。随之国内外均掀起一系列关于英语听力辅助法的研究。但是，这些英语听力辅助法的实验对象都过于集中，以研究生为主。因此，本研究试图探讨英语听力辅助法中的背景知识介绍法和提供相关单词法对大学生英语听力理解的具体影响效果。

　　　在本次研究中我首先选取出培养对象，并对他们进行了一次考前测试，以便了解他们现有的英语听力水平。在培训结束时，我对他们进行了一次期末测试和要求他们完成一份问卷调查。通过对两次实验和调查问卷进行分析，我发现这两种听力辅助法对大学生英语听力理解起到促进作用和学生更喜爱背景知识介绍法。我们希望本研究能为大学生英语听力的教学以及自主学习方面提供一些见解。
