English audio-visual materials have been widely used by teachers and students, and have been the important resources of teaching and self-study. What effects do these materials have on English listening comprehension? Based on the schema theory, this paper has this question expounded through empirical research. The result of the research indicates that if the sound messages are closely correlated with the visual ones, people’s cognitive schema can be stimulated and enriched, which will give concrete and vivid clues to their treatment of the sound materials, and improve their level of listening comprehension. However, it also indicates that learners’ language proficiency plays a fairly important role in their listening comprehension.
