The 764 Taiwan participants in their second year of senior high took an 11-item, multiple-choice English reading comprehension test, followed by the self-report Metacognitive Strategies Use Questionnaire (MSUQ). 　　Results revealed that: (1) the internal consistency coefficient of MSUQ was .87. Moreover, results of the exploratory factor analysis showed that MSUQ was unidimensional, and 37.12% variances could be explained by 18 items of MSUQ; (2) the relationship between the MSUQ and reading comprehension was positive, and MSUQ could explained 11% variances of reading comprehension. Finally, the results of this study were discussed and the suggestions to school implication and further research were proposed.
