　As education in China is changing from exam-oriented education to quality education, to cultivate students’ comprehensive ability of using language gradually becomes the purpose of English teaching. This requires English teachers to change the outdated teaching methods to improve the efficiency in the classroom. According to the National English Curriculum, teachers’ objectives, teaching processes, assessment procedures as well as the development of teaching resources should all reflect the principle of learner-centered approach. Classroom teaching should become the process during which students are guided by the teachers. Actually, English classroom is an interactive language activity. In recent years, many researches have proved interaction is the key of language class. The interaction between students and teachers is the main part of the class interaction. And asking questions in class is an important means of communication between teachers and students. Many scholars and researchers have made thorough researches and proved questioning is crucial to the way teachers manage the class, engage students with content, encourage participation and increase classroom interaction.

Classroom interaction promotes the acquisition of second language in two ways: (1) learners’ exposure to the second language; (2) learners’ attempt to use the second language (Ellis, 1990). And questioning is a good way for teachers to interact with students. So if we want to investigate the questioning strategies, first of all, we should understand the relationship between interaction and language acquisition.
　　In Krashen’s (1985) “input hypothesis” theory, the understanding of input language is the basic way to acquire language. Only when learners get the comprehensible input, can they acquire the target language. So the most important method of language teaching is to input more comprehensible knowledge to learners. As the main part of teachers’ utterance, classroom questioning provides an important source for comprehensible language input.
　　Long (1983) confirms the importance of comprehensible language input in language acquisition. Meanwhile, he par
