1．Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
English is not only one of the main international languages in today’s world, but the world's most widely used language. With the expansion of our countries’ policy of opening to the outside world, the fast development of science and technology, and the improvement of international position, there is an urgent need for talents who have a good command of English. Therefore, it is of great importance and real significance for students to learn English well. However, the current situation is, due to the traditional English teaching methods, which has exposed many disadvantages and hindered the development of teaching reform, that the students’ English ability is not optimistic. In English reading class, teacher is still the main body, and students can only accept knowledge passively, which leads to a situation that the students learn very little while teachers slave away. In other words, efforts are out of step with gains. Therefore, it is believed that the seasonable introduction of a feasible and effective teaching method has a positive significance to change the current situation. And Project-Based Approach (PBA for short) is such an effective teaching method.
