It explores four measures to attain it: strengthen the motivation of learner autonomy; change teacher’s role in language teaching; optimize the mixture of students’ self-efficacy to become good learner; and training of cognitive and meta-cognitive learning strategies. 

Key words: college English; intrinsic factors; autonomous learning
