Abstract

Vocabulary is important for Chinese students if they want to achieve good grades. Teachers should choose an appropriate way to teach vocabulary. Video-teaching is prevalent among teaching methods in recent years because students can not only learn lexical and syntax, but also understand western culture according to different English movies. It can help to stimulate students’ interest to remember vocabulary based on subtitles. So, this paper uses questionnaire, experiment and interview to investigate the impact of playing English movie clips with bilingual subtitles on Chinese high school students’ vocabulary learning. The results shows that students can acquire some vocabulary according to watch subtitled movies. Thus, the results help teachers can choose appropriate movie clips to improve students’ vocabulary.
