摘要
本文从内在因素和外在因素两个方面研究了影响二语学习者听力成绩的因素。研
究首先对两位英语成绩有较大差距的学生进行访谈,在此基础上结合前人研究成果,
从而形成了本研究的调查问卷。然后对 126 名具有不同英语水平的非英语专业大学
生进行了调查,确定了 41 个变量。因子分析方法表明:四个因子对二语学习者听力
成绩影响最大,分别为:认知因素,信仰和注意力,听力策略以及背景知识。每一
组的因子分析还表明,各组产生的因子与整体产生的因子完全一样,从而进一步验
证了听力成绩的四大影响因素。
一维方差分析表明各水平之间差异具有显著性,进一步印证了四个因子对二语学
习者英语听力因素的影响。该分析还表明,第二因子和第四因子,即信念与注意力
和背景知识对英语水平越高的学生听力成绩影响越大;第一因子和第三因子,即认
知因素和听力策略对高水平和低水平学生听力成绩影响很大,而对中等水平学生听
力成绩影响不明显。
本研究结果无论是对老师教学还是学生提高英语听力水平都有一定指导意义。首
先,老师在教学过程中可以有意识的培养学生有效地利用这些影响因素,比如在听
力训练中多练习听关键词,主旨词等,鼓励学生多听,加强学生对英语听力的自信
心;另一方面,学生在平时英语听力学习中应该多使用听力策略,集中注意力,用
听懂的内容推测未听清楚的内容,多训练如何快速而有效地记笔记等等。

Abstract
This paper reports an investigation of factors affecting listening performance of L2
learner both from internal and external points of view. The participants were 126 students
selected from three levels of English proficiency: lower level: Level 1; intermediate level:
Level 2 and high level: Level 3. The process of instrument development is based on a
semi-structured interview which involved another two students with lower-high listening
proficiency, along with a review of the relevant literature related to factors affecting
prehension. Two factor analyses resulted in a 41-item instrument.
A statistic analysis of data from students at each level shows that the questionnaire has
robust reliability and validity. From this study, there are three major findings emerged.
One is that there are four factors which affect listening proficiency of L2 learners most
and they are cognitive factors, beliefs and attention, listening strategy and background
knowledge. Another is that each group at different English levels resulted in the same
factors as from all the students as a whole. The third one presented by one-way Analysis
of Variance (ANOVA) indicated that eve
