Introduction
The field of language education has undergone transformative shifts in response to the evolving demands of English language proficiency in the 21st century.As societies become increasingly interconnected and globalized, the ability to communicate effectively in English has become a prerequisite for academic success and participation in the global workforce.In China, senior high school English courses play a pivotal role in equipping students with the language skills and competencies needed to thrive in this dynamic landscape.This paper embarks on an exploratory journey into the integration of corpus-based language pedagogy (CBLP) within the realm of senior high school English education.Corpus-based language pedagogy is a modern approach grounded in linguistic data analysis, offers a promising avenue for enhancing students' language learning experiences and outcomes.Corpus-based language pedagogy (CBLP) is similar to Shulman's pedagogical content knowledge (1987), meaning the ability to integrate corpus technology into classroom language pedagogy to facilitate language teaching.Corpus technology is intimately linked with corpus linguistics and traditionally pertains to the technological tools used in corpus linguistics for the identification of language patterns (Yoon, 2005).In our discussion of corpus technology, we place particular emphasis on its pragmatic and pedagogical applications, defining it as the utilization and implementation of technology associated with corpus linguistics and corpora for the purposes of language learning and teaching.While corpus technology encompasses a wide array of technological types and applications, our focus centers on common tools and functions, such as concordance searches, keyword analysis, frequency assessments, and the study of collocations, all of which are embedded in popular corpus websites like the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA), Lex-tutor, Sketch Engine, and SKELL.In this era of information abundance, where the internet serves as an endless repository of linguistic resources, the integration of corpus-based language pedagogy holds the potential to empower students with a deeper understanding of English language structures, vocabulary, and cultural nuances.By utilizing language corpora, educators can foster critical thinking skills, cultivate linguistic accuracy, and promote cultural sensitivity among students.The corpus-based language pedagogy is perceived as revolutionary because of the authenticity and richness of its corpus-based data and its potential to promote learners as researchers who play an active role in their learning (Mukherjee, 2006).The use of corpora can encourage autonomous discovery and personalized learning (Boulton & Cobb, 2017).In a meta-analysis, Boulton and Cobb found that overall, the effect size of corpora use on learners' language improvement was large (with Cohen's d ranging from 0.95 to 1.50).What's more, corpus-based language pedagogy can help students improve various language skills, including vocabulary (Ackerley, 2017;Ma & Mei, 2021), collocations (Fang et al., 2021;Vyatkina, 2017), grammar (Lin & Lee, 2015), writing (Crosthwaite, 2020;Poole, 2016) and so on.This former result is very encouraging because it shows the effectiveness of corpora to language learning.However, research on the practical application of corpora in the classroom has been limited (Callies, 2019;Chambers, 2019), and the conversion of theoretical findings into practical teaching designs has been relatively low.While there is a substantial amount of classroom-based corpus research, most of these studies focus on objective descriptions and analyses of existing data, lacking comprehensive discussions on corpus-based teaching models.Additionally, a majority of research targets universities, with limited focus on high school English teaching and practical teaching designs.Therefore, we need more empirical research to prove the positive impact of integrating corpora into senior high school English teaching and to explore specific integration methods and practical cases.Such research can not only help educators better understand the actual effects of integrating corpora into senior high school English teaching, but also provide useful references and guidance for future teaching practices.Therefore, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research and exploration on the current situation of integrating corpora into senior high school English course.

Literature Review
This section mainly introduces the definition and history of corpus-based language pedagogy and corpora, and teaching methods and teaching content of Chinese senior high School English Courses Corpus-based language pedagogy and Corpora Corpus-based language pedagogy is an innovative approach to language teaching and learning that has gained prominence in recent years.It is founded on the principles of using linguistic corpora, which are vast collections of authentic language samples, as central resources for language instruction.This approach revolutionizes language education by grounding it in empirical data, offering learners a more practical, contextually rich, and up to date language learning experience.The development of corpus-based language pedagogy can be traced back to the late 20th century when advances in computer technology made the creation and analysis of linguistic corpora more accessible.Early pioneers, such as John Sinclair (1991), recognized the potential of corpora in language teaching.Over the years, corpus linguistics has evolved, with the integration of technology, making it a cornerstone of modern language education Sinclair(1991) defines a corpus as a collection of language excerpts selected and arranged according to specific linguistic standards, serving as a sample of a language.Yang Huizhong (2002) views a corpus as an information repository consisting of extensive language usage data, designed specifically for linguistic research, analysis, and description.In the rapidly evolving modern society driven by computer network technology and information technology, corpora primarily refer to largescale electronic text databases obtained through scientific sampling and processing.Since the 1980s, corpora have been widely used in all areas of language studies and have greatly advanced our understanding of language use and patterns.Linguists and researchers soon discovered the advantages of using corpora in language teaching.It is widely believed that language learners are capable of becoming 'researchers' or 'detectors' (Johns, 1991) when they engage in language learning from observing a large quantity of authentic corpus data, encouraging their discovery skills and inductive learning and enhancing their learning autonomy (Boulton & Cobb, 2017;Lewandowska, 2014).Empirical research generally supports the effectiveness of using corpora for language development.For example, the study by Johns et al. (2008) documented how 22 Chinese learners improved their English reading skills by using corpus data.Further, Boulton (2009) examined how 132 French university students made progress in learning English vocabulary after consulting corpus data.In the study by Charles (2011), 49 English as a Second Language (ESL) students self-perceived that they had increased their awareness and deepened their understanding of discourse features with the help of corpora.In addition, an experimental study by Bardovi Harlig et al. (2015) demonstrated that corpora facilitated the learning of pragmatics for 37 ESL students.Here, the experimental groups outperformed the control group by providing more appropriate oral responses with the help of corpus-informed input.
