Abstract

Three high school English classroom teaching corpora are established by transcribing three high school English classroom teaching videos in case database of primary and secondary education, including Lesson 1, Lesson 2 and Lesson 3. T1, T2 and T3 represent the teachers of the three English classes respectively. The questioning skills of the three English teachers will be compared and analyzed. And the influence of teachers' questioning on teaching results will be reflected from three aspects: teacher's questioning form, teacher's questioning content, and teacher's questioning direction. At the end of the paper, some suggestions about teacher's questioning will be provided.
