摘要

The concept of English learning activities is that under the guidance of thematic meaning, students can analyze and solve problems on the basis of previous knowledge by relying on discourse, learning comprehension, application practice, transfer and innovation and other English learning activities. The English Curriculum Standard for Senior High Schools (2017 Edition) classifies reading as an understanding skill and writing as an expressive skill. Literature reading is the core of all reading, which has the function of developing language and thinking. More and more teaching and research departments and front‐line teachers begin to introduce literature reading into English classroom teaching. However, there are some problems in the current teaching of English literature reading, such as one‐sided teaching objectives, shallow teaching contents and utilitarian teaching activities. In order to solve these problems, based on the concept of English learning activities, this paper explains in detail how English teachers design different levels of English learning activities in the teaching of literature reading, such as learning comprehension, application practice, transfer and innovation.
