english learning; stimulation;cultivation; middle school students a, introduction motivation (motivation) has been considered a foreign language learning is one of the key factors. corder a word is often quote: as long as there is learning motivation, who can learn a language. our english teacher is a widespread belief that learning motivation, the higher the faster to learn, to learn the better. students have the earnest study attitude and strong study perseverance, is often because they have strong learning motivation; there are some students lack of enthusiasm, and even disgusted, this is clearly learning motivation of performance. learning motivation and study result is complementary relationship, good motivation to get the success of learning, learning success, in turn, enhance motivation (vivian cook, 2000). therefore, our teachers know and stimulate the students learning motivation is important to the success of an teaching conditions. in english teaching, motivation has been the key for the teaching, whether it is listening, speaking, reading and writing grammar teaching, if cant stimulate the students motivation, teaching is not possible to achieve the expected effect (wangduqin, 2002). as an english teacher, our primary mission is to stimulate the students english learning motivation. high school students is a subjective initiative of the individual, in english learning process, learning motivation is one of the main factors affect learning. at the same time, they are social individuals, the english learning motivation must by the environment influence and restriction. in this paper, the influence factors of middle school students english learning motivation, analyzed the stimulate the students english learning motivation strategy, in hopes of the middle school english teaching has certain practical significance. second, the meaning of motivation, type learning motivation is to point to by a learning objective individual or object, to inspire and guide to maintain learning activity intrinsic psychological process or internal power. this means that learning motivation is individual inner psychological process, it is cant directly observed the, but can be by individual external behavior speculation. for example, through the choice of students for the tasks to the amount of effort, to the attitude of the difficulties, and rejuvenation, etc, can gather that students learning motivation of direction, namely the interest, hobbies and direction; also can gather that students learning motivation and maintain the strength of the length of time, etc. motivation is from a certain learning goals or objects, stimulating and maintenance of guidance, here emphasizes the importance of learning goals, goals or object can guide, arouse and maintain individual learning. for example, students to realize three good student become such a goal, can produce study power and try to overcome difficulties, to be excellent results. simply speaking, learning motivation is aroused and guide the individual behavior towards the power of learning goals. as shaoruizhen editor of the learning and teaching psychology (1991) in the book had said that: motivation is driving people a reason or activities, including the intention of the personal power and desire, psychological conflict or attempt to achieve goals. cognitive psychologists think, motivation can be divided into the internal motive (or internal driving force) (intrinsic motivation) and external motivation (or external incentives) (extrinsic motivation). the internal motive refers to the interest of the people to the event itself caused by power, is a point to the task of learning motivation. for example, students the purpose of learning english is to gain knowledge of english, use english for communication. education is one of the main responsibility of the students to take an interest in knowledge itself. outside incentive effect on the students learning english is the external factors. for example, students academic performance by the top teachers praise, the envy of the students, so that its respected to get needs met, so as to improve their efforts to study further the enthusiasm. to promote students learning motivation is directly to learn an internal power, is the social and education to the student the objective requirement of the students of the reflection in the mind. three, to encourage and train high school students the importance of english learning motivation according to the description of the modern psychology, motivation has three functions: stimulate the function;
