Abstract
Listening is one of the important components of English teaching and learning in the university. It is the ability that university students want to improve most, however, the most difficult one during their four-year study. If we can strengthen and improve students' listening comprehension ability, we may help them enhance their interests in English study. Then they may learn English more autonomously. As a result, we can stimulate listening teaching and learning of college English within the range of non-English majors. Through questionnaires,this thesis tries to analyze the status quo of students’ using listening strategies and autonomous learning and to find out the existing problems so as to find feasible strategies，among which the classification of metacognitive strategies, cognitive strategies and social/affective strategies is the most representative one. The final aim of the thesis is to raise their strategy applying consciousness and to explore how to learn more effectively so as to promote their autonomous learning.

英语听力教学是大学英语教学的重要组成部分。听力往往是非英语专业大学生在四年大学学习生涯里最想提高但也是最难提高的一项技能。加强和促进听力理解能力的提高有利于帮助学生提高学习英语的兴趣，促进他们更加自主地学习英语，从而达到提高大学非英语专业英语听力教学的目的。本论文将通过问卷形式，以听力策略和自主学习理论为基础，分析学生采用听力学习策略和自主学习的现状，进而提出加强听力的有效策略，其中元认知策略、认知策略和社交/情感策略的划分方法最具代表性。本文的最终目的是帮助非英语专业大学生提高策略的使用意识，探索如何更有效地学习，从而有效培养大学生的自主学习能力。

1 Introduction
In the traditional English teaching and learning process, people, more often than not, attach great importance to the ability of reading and writing, neglecting the cultivation of listening. “Deaf English” has become a widespread phenomenon.Nevertheless, among the four basic skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) in English study and applications, listening ranks the first. Listening takes up an extremely important role in college English teaching and learning; therefore we should strengthen students' capability of English listening comprehension. With the accelerating pace of economic globalization, today's society has entered an information-based economy era. The demand of future society for foreign language professional talent will be higher and higher. To keep up with the development of the times and keep a foothold in a society full of competition, non-English major students should earnestly study the relevant English listening learning strategies, and repeatedly practice them. According to the questionnaires and the interviews made to the non-English major students, listening is generally the skill they mostly want to improve, however, the hardest one during the four-year university life.
