Abstract

In order to effectively improve the learning efficiency of English learners, the difficulty of English texts based on multi-model and multi-feature fusion is studied. Based on the difficulty classification system of new concept English, a training and testing corpus was constructed. Effective features of English text difficulty are extracted. Based on the research on the method of determining the difficulty of English texts, an English assisted learning system with practice mechanism was designed and implemented. It can meet the needs of different users for learning. The system is mainly composed of five core modules: search module, fixed collocation module, keyword query module, new word module and single exercise module. The process of building a system was introduced. The result shows that this system has a good auxiliary effect on English learning.
