Abstract

Listening is an important way for people to feel and know a language.As a receptive skill in language comprehension,listening not only shares some similarities with reading,but also differs from it significantly.In the learning of English listening,the keys to overcome listening obstacles are that learners must be able to understand all listening factors and their interactive relationships in the comprehension process.Meanwhile,the variance and connection between listening and reading should also be clearly classified,and great importance needs to be attached to the cooperation of top-down and bottom-up knowledge in listening comprehension.
