摘要

The new published Chinese College English Curriculum Requirements gives priority to listening and speaking teaching. In the renewed version CET4&6,the portion of listening comprehension has increased largely from 20% to 35% while almost every section of the testing items in the newly introduced Computer-based test requires a demanding listening capacity. Therefore,a reform in listening teaching is inevitable. This paper serves as a pilot research aiming at investigating the barriers among first year undergraduates and provides bene-ficial information for further research.
