In English teaching at a college is concerned, teachers first must arouse the students interest so that they may have more effective learning; body language used in English teaching is one way to do it. And classroom lead-in is also very important for English learning. As teachers, we must constantly be looking for better ways to help our students achieve effective results as quickly as possible. A skillful teacher wears many hats. Dont you think its a welcome change for the teacher to be recognized as a guide, facilitator, helper, adviser, coordinator, idea person, encourager, evaluator and co-communicator, in addition to being an instructor or director? The new teaching tasks should also include identifying students leaning strategies and helping students become more independent in their studies. When students take more responsibility, more effective learning occurs, and both teachers and learners feel more successful.Key Words: English; lead-in; techniques; methods; interest IntroductionClassroom teaching is the main way for students to learn English. The role of teacher in teaching is the organizer of the teaching process and the goal guide of classroom learning. Teacher acts the leading role in teaching process. It is mainly manifested in the new knowledge instruction the demonstration, the drill, the utilization knowledge organizer, the instruction and the encouragement, and the students who need help in their studies. These mainly manifest in the role of students playing, the higher initiation the student studies and the letter function of teachers display will indicate. These are mainly manifested and fully displayed in the role of student. The higher position of initiation the student studied, the better function of teachers instruction will indicate. Each kind of design for teaching activity must take the development of students ability first. The main work of English teaching is not only instructing knowledge and dispelling doubts, but creates a language environment for helping and impelling the student to receive English training and obtain the ability from the training. We should take the study as the center of gravity in English teaching, but not take the teachers as the center of gravity. The student is positive as “moving” and the teacher is good at “tempting”, with the coordination of “tempts” and “move” can form a good educational model. We must inspire the thought of students in teaching and truly advance the main status for student to acquire knowledge initiatively. Try to establish the language situations and language environment for the students to practice their language speaking and the ability of cooperation. According to the student psychology characteristic and the guidance and deal with the relations between teaching and study correctly. Interest is the best teacher. Motivating the students interest of learning English is an important aspect in teaching English. We must try our best to motivate the students interest of learning English.The learning of English in China, however, has a long history and now occupies the attention of millions of its people. How many millions are there is hard to say, since much depends on the level of proficiency one takes as the norm (Crystal, 1985). But there are probably in the region 300,000,000 people actively engaged in the job of learning English. The psychologists drew a conclusion that the desire of learning is the inner motive of studentsstudy. And interest is the precondition to form the desire of learning. If we motivated the students interest, the students would learn more energetically, and the teaching effects would be better and the students would be good at English. How to motivate the students interest of learning English？I think we must motivate the students interest of learning from these aspects. First, the teachers (especially the English teacher) must be care of their appearance. Good examples given by the teacher will be good at motivating studentsinterest. The second is teaching methods and technique. Various and living teaching methods can effect the students interest. The third is teachers oral English. Teachers oral English must be precise and sometimes with a sense of humor. The fourth is the relationship between the teachers and the students. Harmonic relationship is helpful to motivate the students interest. And we also must be careful of the other facts to raise the students interest, such as the environment of classroom and school. In a word, we must try our best to motivate the students interest of learning English. In the classroom, the teacher must be good at directing (acting) and make the classroom instruction. According to the students characteristic to design the teaching activity and enhance the interest of English studying. The Requirements of the Task, and the Analysis of the Feasibility of Accomplishing the Predicted Aim2.1 The Requirements of the Task2.1.1 The Language Should Be Smooth and Accurate;2.1.2 The Structure Should Be Clear, the Conclusion Should Be Correct;2.1.3 The Style of the Language Should Meet the Requirements of the Thesis;2.1.4 The Thesis Writing Should Follow the Form Required By the Thesis. 2.2 The Analysis of the Feasibility of Accomplishing the Predicted AimThis academic paper will include four sections: In the first section, I will introduce technology and foreign language education; in the second section, I will discuss the concept of techniques of lead-in in classroom teaching of college English; In the third section, I will describe the analysis and character of techniques of lead-in in classroom teaching of college English; In the fourth section, I will discuss the introduction, contents, using and the future of the developing.2.2.1 Technology and Foreign Language EducationTo place the potential impact of technologies in perspective for education in general, consider the following recommendations made in a recently completed study by the RAND Corporation for the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the Office of Technology of the U.S. Department of Education (Glennan and Melmed 1996). This study took an in-depth look at the role that technology is playing and probably should be playing in college schools today .Educational technology has significant potential for improving students' learning. (1)Extensive use of technology in schools has the potential to promote significant school restructuring and expand the time and motivation for student learning. (2)The growth in use of technology by schools is strong; schools are adding equipment and developing connections to the national information infrastructure at a high rate. However, many schools still lack significant access to technology. (3)Data from a study by the IEA in 1992 suggested the availability of technology in schools serving poor, minority, and special needs populations did not appear to lag substantially behind the averages of schools taken as a whole. However, to the extent that technology enables learning outside the school, large disparities in the access of students of different classes and ethnicity to technology is a matter of concern. (4)Some schools and school districts have moved rapidly to a fairly ubiquitous use of technology, and their experiences should provide guidance to others that are following. (5)The costs of ubiquitous use of technology are modest in the context of overall budgets for public elementary education but moving to such use requires significant and potentially painful restructuring of budgets. (6)When technology is deeply infused in a school's operations, teachers tend to assume new roles and require new skills. There is a strong consensus among the experts we consulted that neither the initial preparation of teachers nor the current strategies for continued professional development have been effective in developing these skills. (7)While there has been a rapid expansion in home education software, the market for school-based content software has been modest and comparatively stagnant. Quality content software for middle and secondary schools is not broadly available. However, this market is likely to evolve rapidlySo how do we make sense of imminent technological change and the status of technology implementation in foreign language learning? The main purpose of this volume is to explore new technologies from the perspective of the foreign language teaching professional. Gunther Mueller, a member of the Volume Advisory Committee, proposed the following graphic to help define the specific topics that authors needed to cover. As illustrated, the areas to be addressed fall within the intersection of issues related to the Learner, the Teacher, the Technology, and the Curriculum and converge at educational and learning Outcomes. It was not possible to present every specific issue implied by this diagram, nevertheless, volume authors were challenged to address areas such as:(1)electronic technologies and ways their impact can benefit each of the four language skills; (2)appropriate pedagogical strategies for technology in language learning; (3)specific, noteworthy, technology-based applications for language learning; (4)teacher education issues; (5)technology implementation strategies to maximize positive impact on language learning outcomes; and (6)the potential for using technology to learn about the language learning process itself. 2.2.2 The Analysis and Character of Techniques of Lead-in In Classroom Teaching of College EnglishThe core of the situation teaching method lies in exciting students' mood . In situation teaching, often let students experience first and then express with the language, or impel inside positive activity of language to experience to experience, students in this way can study among light and joyful study atmosphere. III The Key Problems of the Research and the Ways of Solution and the Future Development3.1 CAI and English TeachingThe design of introduction in English classroom needs to utilize the rule, which intends to play attention to transform mutually. In classroom teaching, a good instructional aid is one that appeals to the senses and is able to attract and hold the learners attention to the essential elements to be learned. As is known to all, teaching should keep pace with the information times, so that students can study English more effectively, and teachers can improve the quality of teaching. With the swift development of science, more and more modern techniques have begun to serve teaching, and the most glaring is that computer and network techniques, widely used in western countries, are spreading in China rapidly, and their advantages have begun to show CAI(Computer Assistant Instruction), the modernist means, is possible to be applied to teaching. Multimedia techniques compounds texts, graphics, images, animations, audio and videos, and have the characteristics of variety, interactivity, and integration which make CAI more vivid and comprehensive. Whats more, when computers are linked to network, the quick, common and abundant information lets CAI go out classrooms. And network can accompany the students daily life, and must be created, collected and developed by the teachers profound knowledge and hard work. So CAI will be effecting the teaching greatly, and theres no doubt that he who exercises CAI early and appropriately will be in the lead in teaching.To get learner in the habit of really using the strategies, its a good idea to encourage them to set goals as students take more responsibility in their learning they feel more successful when they attain their goal.Traditionally, teachers are viewed as instructors who explain exactly what the students should do. But in an English classroom, the subject matter and the changes in the lesson objectives make it necessary for you to function in different roles. In fac
