Study on the Gothic Complex in
A Rose for Emily
1. Introduction
1.1 A brief introduction of William Faulkner and his A Rose for Emily
William Faulkner is one of the most distinguish writer in American literature.He was born and lived in the South, which influenced him greatly, therefore, most of his works described the people and their lives in the South. As the appearance of Faulkner, the South appeared the literary glories of “the South Renaissance”, which ever was called “the literary desert."(Yu Jianhua, The Second Prosperous of American Literature, 460).
He invented a county and a town in his imagination, and he wrote about the society in the South by inventing families which represented different social forces: the old, decaying upper class; the rising, ambitious, unscrupulous class of “poor whites”; and the Negroes who labored for both of them.His major works included Sartoris, The Unvanquished, The Sound and the Fury, As I Lay Dying, The Town and A Rose for Emily (Laurence B.Holland, The Norton Anthology of American Literary ,534-537).
Published in 1930, A Rose for Emily was one of the best known and the most widely read novel among William Faulkner’s short stories. The story took place in a mythical town that William Faulkner called Jefferson, Mississippi. The story happened at the period of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries when the town was learning to live with South’s loss in the Civil War and the consequent dismantling of the slavery-based society that had preceded it. Because of the loss in the Civil War, people in the south led a poor life. Especially the white people, their life suddenly become poor because most of the slaves went to the north to work for the northern industry，so the white people couldn’t get accustomed to the life change in a short time, but they still pretended to be noble and kept their family’s dignity(Howard Clin cotton, American History, 30).
The story described a white woman, Emily’s tragic life under the South’s loss in the
Civil War.Emily’s life was strongly dominated by her father, and she had no right to date with males and choose her lover. After her father’s death, she could only date with a northern worker. But to her disappointment, the worker refused to marry her, and the refusal drove her to kill him by using poison, and she let his body company her. After Emily’s death, the town people discovered a skeleton in the house, and found out that the poor Emily was a murder, and people were shocked by the discovery.
Thematically, this short story is not as simple as it seems. The conflicts in the story can be interpreted on different levels. On the superficial level,it was a murder story with gothic characteristics. It described an eccentric woman who lived in her old decaying mysterious house that other people had not visited for decades,and, of course, a dead body in the house finally was discovered after so many years. On another level, the story can be read as a conflict between the South and the North with Emily representing the declining South and Homer Barron representing the North. On a deeper level, the story explores the inner world of a human being, or the inner struggle in the human heart.
1.2Introduction of the Gothic Characteristics in Literature
The word “Goth” came from the name of a Germanic tribe. The gothic people were famous for their brutal and uncivilized features. They ever lived in north Europe, then invaded in Rome Empire from the third AD century to the fifth AD century, and set many kingdoms in Italy, Spain, south part of France and North Africa. A thousand years later, after the Rome Empire died out, Italian Vasari (1511--1574) used the "Goth" for the first time to refer to an architectural style in middle age, which was "tall sharp pointed, vaulted roof or tower ,narrow windows, colorful glass, darkness houses, gloomy ladders."(Xiao Minghan, Criticism of Foreign Literature, 9) The gothic architecture was originated in France in 11th century, and it was popular in Europe from 13th century to 15th century. This kind of architecture style mostly is seen in the church, and also in common architecture. The gothic architecture has a high status in the history of architecture because of its excellent skill and its achievement in the field of art. The gothic characteristics not only appear in architecture, but also appear in many fields such as literature, movie, music and clothing.
The so-called “Gothic Revival" appeared in aspects of architecture and literature during eighteenth century to nineteenth century, which was the gloomy and depressed
tone in middle age. Meanwhile, some literary works enjoyed the same tone with "Gothic fiction" in the time. Take Horace Walpole for example, his "The Castle of Otranto" set an example for early classic gothic fiction. The birth of "Gothic fiction” was not only related with the "Gothic feeling" of the cemetery poetry of England, but related with the "Gothic characteristics"，the aesthetic standard of Edmund Burke (1729-1797) as well.
The gothic characteristics in literature are that the story mostly takes place in a distant ages and desolate places, the characters are locked or imprisoned in narrow spaces or in a mysterious gothic building and suspense often mingles with love. There are some usual ways of suspense, such as mysterious inheritance, secret antecedents, lost will, the secret of family, ancestral curse and so on. And at the end of the story, the mystery or the suspense is solved, the evildoer is discovered and the impediment of the love between the hero and the heroine is brushed aside. Compared with romantic fiction, the gothic fiction mostly describes adventurous story and the impediment of love mostly is caused by the evildoer, while the romantic fiction mostly describes the family’s triviality, and the impediment of the love in the romantic fiction between characters is caused by them. The theme of the gothic story mostly reveals through death, murder, violence and horrible scene. In a short, the novels with the gothic characteristics reveal a mysterious, horrible, depressed and gloomy atmosphere. Since the 18th century, the gothic characteristics had been used in the literary works popularly, and there are many famous novels with the gothic characteristics, such as Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights，Notre Dame de Paris,A Rose for Emily and so on. A Rose for Emily is especially the most representative work of gothic fiction.
2.Literature Review
After I look up in CNKI, China Journal Net, VIP information and other journals I have found two academic journals that are consistent with my thesis.I foundthree similar papers ,they are Zhang Qi, Zhangxuezhu. A Rose for Emily on the Gothic Features 【M】. Leshan Teachers College, 2003,11, Huang Fu Yan, 2011, rose ashes, love into a poem - on the Gothic features of Emily Rose, "we"and Yuhuan Huan, 2009.8 William Faulkner dedicated to Amy ? Gothic Rose Li in the complex "Jiannan Literature ",and their main view is that "A Rose for Emily"is an outstanding 20th century American novelist William
Faulkner's short stories. A striking feature of this novel is the use of Gothic Marxism.This article will focus on the Gothic complex in"A Rose for Emily" in orderto help readers better understand this masterpiece.In "A Rose for Emily", Faulkner uses the gothic literary artistic expression,making their characterization, description of environment, atmosphere, setting and plot are all rendered with rich Gothic colors, through the description of Ai Millie's life tragedy to expose the dark side of Southern society, accused the South Puritan tradition and patriarchal society the persecution of women.
3. The Gothic Characteristics in A Rose for Emily
Savoy Eric(1970) mentioned:“it’s very contradictory that a kind of literature, which is twined by the immortal history and attracted by queer grief, came into being in the country which believes in freedom and pursues the happiness of individual.”He said ironically the existence of gothic characteristics in American literature. Although the society advocated pursuing happiness and freedom, the unfairness and ugliness still existed and then the gothic literature appeared. Faulkner, the author of this novel lived in a special environment which was full of depressing and gloomy atmosphere due to the South’s loss in the Civil War. “Therefore, his habit, thinking way and life attitude closely related with this unfortunate field.”(Jay Parinier,The Norton Anthology of American Literary, 633). He had complicated feeling for his hometown’s loss in the Civil War. On one hand, he complained about the poor or miserable life caused by the war, and had a little hatred for the North. On the other hand, he praised the improvement of human being caused by the war, because the war opened the door of eliminating slavery system, so he only could express his complicated feeling for the South’s loss precisely by using gothic characteristics in his literature. In A Rose for Emily, he used gothic characteristic in many aspect such as scene or the description of Emily’s house, theme, narrative way, character.
3.1 The gothic characteristics in the description of environment
The gothic story usually takes place in isolated places where people seldom visit, such as a hidden castle in the jungle, a farmstead, and old dilapidated house and so on. The author attached much importance to the description of the scene and playing up the mysterious and horrible atmosphere. Baron Armond(1972)said:“the word “mystery”
connects with the gothic characteristics naturally.”Emily's house embodies gothic characteristics.
Emily's house was a special style building made of wood. When her parents were alive, the house was noble style, which "had once been white, decorated with cupolas and spires and scrolled balconies in the heavily lightsome style of the Seventies."(William Faulkner, A Rose for Emily). As the time passed, however, the house still kept its outdated style and "lifting its stubborn and coquettish decay."(William Faulkner, A Rose for Emily).We could feel an incompatible atmosphere with the age. And the description of the house also revealed Emily’s character that she rejected the modernized or changed world stubbornly.
Several years later, the deputation had a chance to go into Emily's house for the first time. They went into “a dim hall from which a stairway mounted into still more shadow." (William Faulkner,A Rose for Emily).Moreover, there was "a dust and disuse--a close, dank smell"(William Faulkner, A Rose for Emily). in the air. The parlor was "furnished in heavy, leather--covered furniture." (William Faulkner, A Rose for Emily).Faulkner described a dim and mysterious picture for us. And this mysterious picture made readers curious about her life in the house.
It was really shocking that the town people saw in Emily's base room.“A thin, acrid pall as of the tomb seemed to lie everywhere upon this room decked and furnished as a bridal." (William Faulkner,A Rose for Emily). Homer's skeleton "had apparently once lain in the attitude of an embrace." (William Faulkner,A Rose for Emily). The second pillow which was in the same bed was the indentation of a head. It is clearly that it was Emily's "long strand of iron--gray hair."Homer had been missed for forty years, and Emily had been slept with his skeleton for forty years. Sepulchral atmosphere spread the air. It is shocking and absolutely terrible. But it is not Faulkner who originally adds the terror element in fict ion; it is the traditional style of “gothic characteristics." Faulkner not only uses these characteristics in A Rose for Emily, but exaggerates several details such as murder, violence, etc. So the description of Emily’s house created the mysterious and horrible atmosphere successfully and connected the mystery with gothic characteristics naturally.
3.2 The gothic characteristics in the theme of A Rose for Emily
Mostly, the characteristics of the theme in gothic literature are that the author reveals the evil of human being and attacks the dark side of the society, such as the unfairness and crime through death, murder, violence and revenge.
Gross, Louis.S(1979) pointed out: “the difference between American gothic literature and European gothic literature is that the European gothic literature is mostly regarded as escapism and rejected by people, while American gothic literature speaks out people’s voice, especially people who are special such as females, homosexual, colored races and so on, although American gothic literature is still fictitious.”Due to people are not allowed to express their depressed feeling caused by the insecure society or the dark side of society, they can only express the feeling indirectly by gothic discourse or using gothic characteristics in literature.
At Emily’s times, women were controlled by men strongly. Before marriage, women were controlled by fathers, so they had no right to choose their lovers or partners. Emily couldn’t go out to make friends as often as she can, and her father thought there’s no man who’s good enough to match his daughter in their town, so she was still single when she was thirty years old. When her father died, she depended on her father so much that she was not wiling to bury his father. After his father’s death, she had no courage to face the outside world alone, so she went outside seldom, and her neighbors were curious about her life and guessed how her life was going from her and her servant’s actions. And then the Northern worker Homer appeared and Emily was attracted by him, and Emily was too lonely and empty, and she was eager to his company, but to her disappointment, he refused to marry her. She knew that she couldn’t control his life when he was alive, so she decided to kill him. In order to own him forever, Emily killed him by using drug. To a large extent, Emily’s life was deeply affected by her father’s control, even ruined by her father. If there’s no her father’s strong control, she might get married at the right time and certainly she would n’t make her lover company by killing him.
So the theme of the short story which the author was trying to show was that he attacked the men’s domination over women by Emily’s murder, her necrophilia, and her separation from outside for many years, and meanwhile the author also showed his
sympathy for women and he spoke for women’s freedom. Besides, the story also showed southern people’s suffering and anxiety after their loss in the Civil War. Especially the white people, they couldn’t easily get accustomed to the life without slaves, and their life became totally miserable, and they cherished the memory of the past rich life; and they still thought that they were superior to others, and kept their family’s dignity. But in their deep heart, they hated the northern people who were destroyers of their happiness, so Emily’s killing Homer showed their hatred for the North. And Homer’s refusal to marry to Emily showed the northern people’s contempt for the backward system of the South. In brief, the author also attacked the decayed thought of white people in the South by Emily’s murder. So the theme of the story was showed in gothic characteristics successfully.
3.3 The gothic characteristics in the narrative way of A Rose for Emily
Mostly, gothic literature is about suspense, and the suspense is mostly about murder, death or shocking ones. Because of the suspense, the gothic literature has its own characteristics: mysterious, horrible and gloomy atmosphere and the process to solve the suspense is an adventurous experience. The usual way of telling the suspense is flashback form, because this kind of narrative way can make readers feel the mystery of the story and attract readers’ attention to go on reading it. When the readers read this kind of story, they may have the feeling of being spies. Of course, as the representative work of gothic fiction, there’s suspense in A Rose for Emily.
Faulkner deliberately set a flashback form to tell the story. At the beginning, Emily was dead at her seventy--six years old. The whole town went to her funeral for different purposes: the men had a respectful affection for a fallen monument, and the women were curious to see her inner house. Who was Emily? What kind of person was she? Faulkner immediately grasped readers' interest to read on.
She once was beautiful and slim, but her father drove all the men who pursued her. Only after her father died, she could date with a Northerner. Unfortunately, she could not marry with him, which hurt her so deeply that she had to keep herself far from the world from then on.
However, the ending is out of expectation. She was shrewd and unscrupulous. She
secretly murdered her fiancé by rat poison, and kept his body in her bed and slept with him for forty years. It is really tricky and surprising. The ending may be unreasonable to some extent, but it really shows Faulkner's creativity. He adopts the flashback to add much profound meaning to the short story, which is superior to the normal narrative way of the general fictions. So at last, to people’s surprise, they found Emily was a cruel murderer, and people were shocked by the discovery.
In addition, the choosing of the narrator also reflects the gothic characteristics. Mostly the suspense is told by the narrator who doesn’t participate in the events he recounts, he’s not a character in the story but is someone not even named, who stands at some distant from the action recording what the main characters say and do, recording also what they think, feel, or desire (X. J. Kenned y ＆Dana Gioia, An Introduction to Fiction, 45). The narrator in A Rose for Emily is “we”, the people in town, but not the character Emily. After Emily’s father was dead, she didn’t went out as before, so as observers, people in the town narrated her actions and guessed her life according to her and her black servant’s action. They narrated Homer’s returning to Emily’s house, and they guessed they might get married. When they smelled the disgusting smell from Emily’s house, they guessed that her killing rats or snakes. And when Emily bought the rats poison, they guessed the poison was used for killing rats. So the narrator’s guess makes the story become more mysterious.
The flashback form and the choosing of the narrator grasp people’s curiosity for the suspense, and make the suspense more mysterious, and also reflect the gothic characteristics successfully. In a short, the narrative way created a mysterious and terrified atmosphere, so the gothic characteristics exist in the narrative way of the story.
3.4 The gothic characteristics in the Character
Usually, the characters in the gothic literature are eccentric and mysterious. And most characters are not ghost but real people who have twisted characteristic caused by their life experiences, such as their childhood, their parents’ influence and their love story, and they act in abnormal way. Because of the character’s twisted or eccentric characteristics, the story or the suspense appears in gothic characteristics. Mark Madoff(1979) took Lewis’s The Monk an example and pointed out that in fact, the
description of the violent behavior in the gothic literature was the description of character’s repressed soul. The character of Emily in A Rose for Emily was a normal person, but the way she acted was very eccentric and mysterious, so people around her began to be curious about her life, and suspected her life.
(1) Emily
So besides the description of environment, the theme and the narrative way reflected the gothic characteristics, the character of Emily was also involved in “Gothic characteristics". She was stubborn, eccentric and mysterious. She had been isolated from the outside world for forty-year since her father died and Homer's missing. Her door remained closed all the year round and refused all the visitors.
Actually, she was an unrealistic stubborn woman. She did not want to dispose of her father's body, and “She told them that her father was not dead.”(William Faulkner,A Rose for Emily ) Ignoring the law,she refused to pay the taxes and repeated that “I have no taxes in Jeffe rson.”Moreover, she asked the officials to get explanation from Colonel Sartoris, who ever remitted her taxes. It seemed that she did not know Colonel Sartoris was dead before ten years. “It can be believed that her refusal to pay the taxes symbolizes the refusal to accept the changed society to some extent.”(Zhu Zhenwu,Study on Foreign Literature, 34). She took pain to keep her superior, dignity and the southern fair lady impression.
“Emily is a typical example of the decay system of the south. The failure of the Civil War brought corruption and decline to the South, which was very obvious in economy and politics.”(Zhang Kuiwu, A Survey of England and America,74) However, it was imperceptible in moral and psychology. The South originally had their own unique economic form, cultural style, life way and moral standard, even their own language. All of these elements “easily stimulated the southerner rise a feeling of the nostalgia, which had solidified for the failure of the South in the Civil War.”(Yu Jianhu a,The Second Prosperous of American Literature, 460). Therefore, the war led to a strange contradictory phenomenon: the old South "died" as long as the failure of the war, but it more obstinately "survive" than any other times. The South "died" in society and economy, but it was still "alive" in the culture and mental.
Pitiable Emily was solidified by time. She fell into the past glories and honors of the
South, but could not be brave enough to face the real life. Faulkner vividly pictured the southerners' subtle, complicated and contradictory psychology through Emily. Emily only was the epitome of the southern declining aristocracies. As the famous critic Malcolm Cloy said “The southern people lived under so heavy pressure that they almost lost their rati onal behavior, but responded mechanically.”(Yu Jianhua,The Second Prosperous of American Literature,460).Thus, they broke out some uncontrollable violence and unreasonable behaviors occasionally. On the other hand, they tightly clung on the luxury and glories in the past to escape the reality, which seemed extremely unrealistic and ridiculous. In this way, Faulkner criticized the southerners who lived in a new time but kept outdated mind. And this distorted psychology was exactly the spiritual essence of the collapsing old south. Standing on a new angle, Faulkner re-examined closely and explained all of these, and sympathized the southerners' thinking way and moral standard.
Emily’s characteristic was deeply affected by her father’s strong control and the insecure society caused by the Civil War, so her characteristic became eccentric and abnormal, and she acted in mysterious and horrible way. Her desire for male was repressed by her father, and she didn’t know how to deal with the relationship with people, especially with males alone; so she chose to be separated from outside. As a result, her characteristic became more and more twisted because of the long-term loneliness and emptiness. Finally, her twisted characteristic led to her tragedy. So the gothic characteristic fully showed in the character of Emily.
(2) the Negro Tobe
Tobe is the supporting role in the novel , doing nothing more than carrying out the basket, open the door of the sort of thing, it seems dispensable in the story. However, as in this short novel, Faulkner has mentioned him more than ten times. Why is this? In-depth observation, we found his value: his presence in the work has an indispensable role to the romance of Gothic atmosphere of this Part.. First of all, Tobe himself is a character full of mystery. The readers do not know his history, do not know why he was still loyal and devoted to serving Emily after Gerryson come down, do not know why he finally disappeared, gone ... ... like a ghost, he appeared from time to time, then disappeared in a whisper away. He does not talk with people, he was as mysterious as his mistress . Second, his presence make the sense of mystery and snobby of Emily continue.
Because of his presence, Emily was like a "lady", was able to stay at home all year round.
4.Conclusion
Given the above analysis, we can arrive at the point that A Rose for Emily reflects gothic characteristics in four aspects of the description of the heroin’s house, the theme, the narrative way, and the character of the heroin. The author, Faulkner expresses his complicated feeling for the South’s loss precisely by using gothic characteristics in A Rose for Emily. He not only expresses his hatred for the North by Emily’s killing Homer, but also shows his contempt for the backward system and decayed thought of the South by Homer’s refusal to marry to Emily. And the gothic fiction vividly pictures us the miserable life of southern people after the Civil War. So A Rose for Emily shows us the perfect combination between gothic characteristic and realistic content.

英语教育中小组合作学习与友爱精神 摘要 新课标英语提倡学生进行小组合作式学习活动。小组合作学习内容丰富、形式多样，在学习过程中，可以使教师和学生的作用相得益彰，对英语教学大有裨益。同时，小组合作学习在实际应用中也存在诸多不足，原因之一在于友爱精神的缺乏。友爱精神，是情感教育的一部分，在学习活动中，体现为一种积极关怀的心态，对促进英语学习有重要意义。因此，把小组合作学习与友爱精神相结合具有可行性和必要性。本文主要论述了小组合作学习与友爱精神在英语教育中的重要作用及两者相结合的建议，以利于英语学习。 关键词：小组合作学习；友爱精神；英语教育
Group Cooperation and Friendly Spirit in English Education Abstract New Standard English promotes cooperative learning activities. Group cooperation contains various contents and forms. In the process of learning, it can complement the role of teachers and students, greatly benefitting for English teaching. Meanwhile, there are also many disadvantages in application; one of the reasons is the lack of brotherhood. Friendly spirit is the emotional part of education, which reflected in a positive and caring attitude in learning activities. It can facilitate English teaching. Therefore, it is feasible and necessary to combine group cooperation and friendly spirit. This paper discusses the important role of group cooperation and friendly spirit in English education, suggests the combination of the two proposals, so as to facilitate the learning of English. Key words: group cooperation; friendly spirit; English education

The Application of Memory Strategy in English Learning Li Qian A Paper Submitted In Partial Fulfillment for the Requirements of the Degree of BACHELOR OF ARTS School of Foreign Languages LIAONING NORMAL UNIVERSITY May, 2016
Abstract M emory is the most important factor in one’s intellige nce ，and most people get good memory by means of proper training. Memory also plays an important part in English teaching. Thus nowadays many foreign language teachers unify memory strategy into the process of English teaching and obtain the remarkable teaching effect. The application of memory strategy has been studied from different perspectives, for example, from psycholinguistics' perspective, the cognitive psychology perspective, and from the linguistics perspective. However, no matter what methods the teacher uses, the final goal is to help the students to use the appropriate memory strategy to improve the efficiency of English learning. By clarifying something about the content of memory theory, elaborating the memory effect of learning under different stages and the important factors of affecting memory, this paper aims to point out the classification of memory strategy, analyzing the memorization of vocabulary, sentence and discourse. It also discusses how the teachers apply memory strategy to teaching practice and unifies the characteristics of original teaching.

英语专业本科毕业论文范文
英语专业本科毕业论文范文 [摘要]英语专业本科写作是本科生在毕业之前最重要的一项学习任务。文章针对目 前毕业论文中存在的主要问题，如写作基本功欠缺、学术基础和意识薄弱、选题不合适及论文缺乏深度和创新等问题并对其原因进行了探讨，据此提出相应的改进措施，以期提高毕业的质量。 [关键词]毕业论文;问题;改进措施 高校英语专业英语教学大纲认为毕业论文是考察学生综合能力、评估学业成绩的一个重要方式。在2004年开始实行的高等学校外语专业本科教学评估方案中毕业论文的质量 被列为一级指标“学生创新能力”的主要观测点(教育部高等教育司， 2004)。根据英语专业教学大纲的精神，学生的毕业论文写作不仅是对学生学业和专业成绩的一次综合测评，也是对学校设置和培养方案以及教师教学活动的一次考验。毕业论文写作是高等院校英语专业教学计划中一个不可缺少的组成部分和实践性环节，是考查学生综合能力、评价学生成绩的一个重要方式。 一、毕业论文写作的现状 在国内，近年来各高校英语专业对学生毕业论文的撰写比较重视。为了提高论文的质量，加强论文的严谨性和规范性，各高校近年来都出台了一系列政策，如的撰写、中期检查、抽查评估，有些高等院校从三年级开始增设学年论文教学环节等等。英语专业本科毕业论文的质量虽然有一定的进步，但也存在着一些问题。原上海外国语大学校长戴炜栋教授等的研究和调查证实了高等学校英语专业毕业论文质量的滑坡趋势(戴炜栋2007)。学 生在论文实际的撰写过程中，出现了写作基本功、格式规范、选题、论文的深度、外文资料不足的问题。其中的原因是多方面的，例如:在培养中偏重技能训练，轻视知识吸纳的 连贯性，使学生缺乏学术的内涵和深度，缺乏认识能力和思辨能力(文秋芳2006);在第八 学期才开始毕业论文的写作，不仅毕业生在短时间内无从选题，而且导致论文质量下降。这种现象对本科教学带来的负面影响应引起各高校英语专业的高度关注。 二、毕业论文写作存在的主要问题 目前高校毕业论文存在不少问题，如语言技能较弱，查阅文献资料的能力比较差，不知道怎样确立自己的观点等等，但以下几个方面的问题尤为明显:第一，写作基本功欠缺。英语专业毕业论文中一个显著的问题就是学生的写作能力较差，反映出学生英语语言能力欠缺。例如:论文结构不严谨、松散;一篇论文有多个中心论点;章节之间缺乏连贯性;语法、拼写错误多;学生随意使用非正式文体，书面语和口语混用的现象比比皆是。
如何撰写英语专业本科毕业论文
如何撰写英语专业本科毕业论文 一般来讲，选题一下子是很难确定的。比较容易的做法是先选一个总的课题，然后围绕总题找材料阅读、思考，最后确定哪一个方面或哪些方面可以在论文中加以运用和发挥。比如，你对语音很有兴趣。若选“On English Phoics”，题目就太大了，不如选“On Teaching English Phoics in M iddle School”，因为这个题目范围小，直接与你从事的英语课堂语音教学联系起来，比较切合实际，写起来也比较顺手。同时师范院校的毕业生通过中学教学实习多少都有某些实践和体会，写起来就更容易一些。在选题方面，以下几点可供参考： (1) 题目要富有意义，要有严肃性。 论文写作是一项严肃的学术研究。你的分析要有一定深度和创见，其目的是要让读者从中思考并获得新的信息。题目没有意义和严肃性，其论文必然不会有多大学术价值。 (2) 要结合个人特长和研究能力。 比如，你对语言学和词汇学都有兴趣，但你更喜欢词汇学，并且平时阅读和积累这方面的材料也很多，可以说是你的专长; 那你最好选这方面的内容去写。因此，要根据个人的特长和能力选择符合个人实际的题目去写。
(3) 要结合个人手头的资料选题。 论文中所表达的观点和论点一般是以资料研究为基础的。如手头仅有一、两本书或几篇文章，就想从中得出令人信服的结论，这是不可能的; 即使得出结论，这样的论文也是没有多大说服力的，结论是站不住脚的，因为你手头的资料太少，不足为证。 (4) 要注意客观性。 题目的选择要竭力避免个人主观性。有些题目往往反映了作者的个人偏见。比如，这种题目：“Which Was the Creater Writer，Mark Twain or Hemingwei?”就不太合适了,因为你的结论不是“Mark Twain”，就是“Hemingwei”。这样容易产生个人主观臆断。我们不妨改为“A Comparison of Themes in Mark Twain’ s and Hemingwei’s Works”较妥。 (5) 要有利于得出合理的结论。 若选“On English Teach ing inM iddle School”是很难得出比较合理的结论。题目太大，无法深入研究，应设法限制课题范围，找到研究焦点。比如,“On the Teaching of English Phoics”，太
