Abstract

With the deepening of globalization, English, as an international language, has become increasingly important. The goal of language teaching is no longer just to improve students' language knowledge, but to pay more attention to cultivating students' communicative competence. Communicative principle is a fundamental principle of language teaching. Since 1970s, foreign language teaching mode based on communicative principle has become increasingly popular at home and abroad. Textbook is the core text of the course, the main content and important carrier of teaching. As an important part of English textbooks, activity design plays an important role in cultivating students' language ability. Therefore, it is in line with the current development trend of language teaching to analyze and study the communicative nature of the activity design of junior high school English textbooks. This paper analyzes the communication of activity design in the ninth grade of junior high school English textbook published by People's Education Press through literature review and textbook analysis, so as to provide feasible suggestions for English teachers. At the same time, it can also help students better understand and master language knowledge, improve teaching effect and improve junior high school students' practical foreign language communication ability.
