Good listening comprehension helps learners to improve comprehensive language proficiency, and promotes the effective implementation of foreign language teaching. However, it is an important and difficult point for foreign language learners. Students cannot understand the listening materials in listening exercises, and they face difficulties in completing the listening exercises assigned by the teacher. This can lead to anxiety and stress for learners which can probably result in lack of interest in learning English. Therefore, the language teaching researchers focus on effective teaching in English listening classes. Recent studies have shown that the learning strategies are helpful for learners to master relevant learning content, and learners can use some listening learning strategies to help them better understand listening content.
