Reading plays an important role in the learning and teaching in senior high schools in China. But greatly influenced by the traditional teaching models, both teachers and students overstress the decoding of basic language, but they overlook accumulation and application of a learners’ prior knowledge, which greatly limits the development of students’ reading competence.

1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose of the Thesis
Since the 1950s, reading is just the process of extracting meaning from letters into words, sentence and chapters, for high school English reading teaching has been influenced by metaphysical theory. Teaching mode focuses on grammar-translation method; classroom teaching is central to teachers who spent most of time explaining words, practicing sentence patterns, grammar and interpreting the text; after class, students are required to recite paragraph and memorize words and rules of grammar. This traditional teaching mode which extremely emphasizes on learning language points, ignoring the function of language, lack of training students reading skills, makes students get into the habit of memorizing words and rules of grammar and reading word by word. They know every word in the text, but can not quickly grasp the theme and infer the content of text. It is hard for them to understand the author’s intention as well. After a class, students only remember some new words and phrases, but do not know the background knowledge, organizational structure and the purpose of article. Because of the effect of this traditional teaching methods and teachers’ stereotypes on the teaching of reading comprehension class, that greatly weaken the effect of teaching English reading course and is bad for promoting student’s reading ability.
