1. Introduction

English is the world s first language. （Ellis， 2011） And because of its practicality and highly pro-gaze， there are many people in learning English from every country. It is speaking， reading and writing that were placed at first. Indeed， the language learning focuses on the practice， but the syntax is summarized from the rules of the organization the role of language practice， and to understand the syntax can reduce the blindness of language use， improve the ability to use language accurately， please do not ignore the role of syntax， especially in reading and writing， he can help you analyze clearly the sentence structure， seize the main points of the sentence， but also help you to write complex and beautiful long sentence.

The purpose we learn English grammar is to use the language.I think the syntax of a language is like a crutch. When we can not walk or when we encounter difficulties， we will think of it. The normal person is not and should not always think in the normal use of language syntax. When we want our standard of English to a higher realm， we have to use this cane to give us a hand.

2. Research

Many people said that a problem of English language learners is the study of English grammar. Its difficult not only because the system is large， complex， memorizing large amount， but also because they do not know how to start with grammar learning. Most of the makeup system marketed in grammar books were compiled in order to nouns， articles， pronouns and verb agreement， adjectives， adverbs， prepositions， and conjunctions， the verb （phrase） and verb tense， non-predicate verb and absolute construction. Modal verbs and subjunctive， complex sentence， elliptical sentence and disjunctive Questions， Communicative English and so on.

This presentation has a certain effect on syntax-based learners while will be very difficult to the basis of weak learners. Word of course is the basic unit of any one language and English is no exception. Everyone whether it is in everyday conversation， work， study， or reading a book， reading the newspaper， writing articles， the use of certain words or phrases composed of sentences according to certain conventions. But the current grammar book is mainly focused on words rather than sentences， focusing on the use of the word to each other fragmented rather than how to properly use the word to complete sentences.Moreover， the traditional grammar teaching method is the teachers carefully explain and the students diligently practice， which is the use of theory before practice teaching mode. Teachers and students accustomed to the judgment of the multiple-choice test， to consolidate the knowledge of the language and it seems the only way both teachers and students considered tacit understanding.endprint

However， this kind of grammar teaching is not the best training methods. First of all， the memory of the grammar does not guarantee the correct use of language. Language teaching was not I taught you， more than I speak and you listen. We can not learn a language by listening， just like swimming， football， learning a language must have a large number of participation and this approach to guide students attention in the grasp of language knowledge， rather than forming the ability to use language.

Second， the subjectivity of students did not truly reflect in this process and the teachers are still the masters of the classroom. The lives and interests of the students did not get attention and their psychological and physiological characteristics are not getting enough attention， the initiative did not get full play.

3. Conclusion

The study of grammar can help students to understand and master English easily. It can actively promote the students interests in English learning. If you like the others consider syntax is not important and there is no need to learn， then youre wrong. Students can through reading， remembering more words， writing sentences to master grammar. So that students will get a multiplier effect.
