Abstract
The ultimate and permanent goal of English teaching is to enable students to acquire the ability to communicate in English. However, it is very hard for the English teachers to perform in the common physical classroom. As the information age commenced in the late 20th century, Multimedia-assisted Language Teaching systems have been developed to provide a more advanced medium for English teaching. With the development of science and technology, the development of multimedia technology urges the educational reforms. The aim of this thesis is to find disadvantages of traditional primary English teaching and then to analyze the advantages of application of multimedia to assist primary English teaching by means of using sounds, pictures, films and flashes.
It is true that multimedia has many advantages in teaching, such as saving class time, arousing students’ interests, offering more information, providing opportunities for real communication, etc. But at the same time, based on studying and analyzing large amount of teaching practices and experiences, the author points out some problems that exist in the course of multimedia-assisted English teaching and puts forward some reasonable suggestions.

摘 要
英语教学的远期、最终目标是逐渐培养学生英语的交际能力。然而，对于一般的英语教师来说，在常规教室里面是很难具体操作的。随着20世纪信息时代的出现，多媒体辅助英语教学为英语教学提供了更为先进的媒介。科技的发展推动了现代教学技术的发展，多媒体的出现更促进了教学的改革。本论文从揭示传统小学英语教学的弊端入手，分析多媒体辅助小学英语教学利用声音、图片、影像和动画等在全面调动学生的学习兴趣和积极性方面的优势.
多媒体在教学方面的确实有诸多优势，比如节省课堂时间，激发学生兴趣，提供更多的信息和交流机会。但与此同时，作者在大量的实践和分析基础上，提出了在运用多媒体辅助英语教学的过程中存在的一些问题和一些合理建议。
