Abstract

Interlanguage fossilization is a universal phenomenon in second language acquisition. In view of the interlanguage fossilization phenomenon in college students' oral English teaching in higher vocational colleges, this paper explores the causes of the students oral English fossilization from students' perspective and teachers' perspective and then puts forward four measures, respectively training language basic skills and cultivating consciousness of pronunciation and grammar, making a balance in the input and output of language, providing appropriate emotional feedback and raising students' psychological quality and including target language culture and minimizing the interference of mother tongue. Thus, the oral English fossilization in oral English of college students can be greatly alleviated or avoided.
