1. Introduction

  There can be no doubt that English is one of the world's most widely used languages. People use a language in one of three ways: as a native language, as a second language, or as a foreign language. English is spoken as a native language by over three hundred million people in the United States, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, some Caribbean countries and South Africa. As a second language, English is often necessary for official business, education, information and other activities in many countries, it is one of the few "working" languages of the United Nations. And with China entering into WTO, the development of China’s economy and opening policy brings new challenges to English learning. English has become more and more prevailing .So more and more people will pay attention to English learning. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. Even a very good teacher cannot teach his students everything they want to know. Because of the limit of the time, money, energy or some other personal reasons, many things will be learned outside school by the students themselves. So to some extent, it is essential for anyone who's relevant to English to master the ability of self-study. Recently, much attention has been paid on the importance of developing English learners' autonomy. Self-study, as a skill of getting knowledge and information, it is extremely essential in such an information-increased and international communication-frequent society. This kind of study skill is not only helpful for us to pursue our educational goal--to get knowledge, also cultivate a learner's independence of autonomy which should be regarded as the end goal. The paper mainly focuses on a brief analysis of self-study in English learning, so as to find out the factors influencing learner in self-study and the roles in learner autonomy in EFL. 
