中文摘要：社会生活的信息化和经济的全球化，使英语的重要性日益突出。英语作为最重要的信息载体之一，已成为人类生活各个领域中使用最广泛的语言。在中国，小学英语的学习已作为考试的主要内容。由此可见,英语的学习非常重要。《小学英语课程标准》中指出“英语学习的主要目标是使学生能够运用英语进行交流。对话教学是实现交际功能的有效教学形式之一,对话教学的目标应该是强化学生的听说能力,强化学生的语言运用能力,获得新的语用语境,实现新的交际功能”。本文抓住“对话”和“艺术”两个方面，以如何创设学生喜欢的英语对话教学，使学生在英语学习中能够真正运用英语进行交流为主要目的，并对以往传统“填鸭式”教学提出质疑，并提出新的教学方式。
