In the process of individual socialization, the physical and psychological differences caused by different genders lead to the phenomenon that the male and female show difference in life and English learning. The thesis analyzes the gender differences in English learning through a questionnaire, puts forwards some countermeasures to get rid of such differences, and further discusses English teaching implication, hoping to develop and maximize students’ potential of English learning, and effectively carry out English teaching. Key words: English learning, gender differences, teaching implication 摘 要 性别是个体差异的一个重要组成部分，在个体社会化过程中，由于男女两性个体遗传物质存在差异，男女两性在生理、心理方面的特点和差异不仅表现在生活方面，也表现在英语的学习上。英语学习是一个非常复杂的过程，它涉及诸多因素,特别是学习者自身的因素是最直接和最主要的因素。在英语教学中不能只重视因材施教等常规的教学原则，而对于客观存在的学习者自身因素即男女生因性别不同而表现出来的在学习心理、学习能力等方面的差异却熟视无睹。本文通过问卷调查探讨了男女生因性别在英语学习中所表现出来的差异现象，并提出了相应的消除男女生在英语学习方面产生差异的各种对策，为同学们学习英语提供一面镜子，有利于男女学生在学习中相互借鉴，取长补短，促进男女生在英语学习中一同前进；同时，老师在英语教学中可根据男女生性别差异实行不同的教学方法，给男女生的英语学习予以指导，更好地发掘学生学习英语的潜力，完成英语教学。 关键词：英语学习，性别差异，教学启示 浅谈英语学习中的性别差异 1 引言 性别角色说认为,性别角色是特定性别的个体,在遗传基础上,通过后天的社会化过程获得与分化的社会角色之一,男女两性不同的生理和解剖特征决定了两性不同的性别,性别又决定了社会对两性所持的不同的期望,个体从出生到成为一名合格的社会成员,要不断接受来自各家庭、社会、教育、同辈群体和大众媒介等方面的持久的性别角色社会化影响,长此以往,形成被该社会群体所接纳的相对稳定的性别角色特征的自我概念、人格特征和社会行为模式等,自动地按照适合自己性别的认识标准、情感体验和行为方式来分析解决问题。由于性别角色具有定向性、约束性和稳定性,男性和女性的大部分习得行为都或多或少地受性别角色的影响；同时
