Abstract：The study on Human Geography has gradually developed into diverse trends since 1980s; documents in the past have made a theoretic and practical analysis of human geography from various points of view, from technological methods, from different regions and many questions. The paper points out the existing questions in the course of making a research of human geography, they lay particular emphasis on macro-study and most achievements are short of concrete operations. Those studies are weak of the aspect of the elementary theory; the status of human geography is not higher and its trend of seating arrangement is still descending from certain ways, and the numbers of study methods are increasing. However the using range and degree of these methods are not enough and it is necessary to make some corrections for study atmosphere. Since 21st century, some new study trends has appeared in the research of human geography and the study achievements of human geography have faced to synthetically study, marginal study; its maneuverability and visualization is strengthening, and the study of human geography is much tighter with practically application. On the basis of the existing questions, we put forward some measures about enhancing the study of human geography. In the first place, we shall overcome our flippancy emotion, dive into study with great concentration and make a solid job; second, we shall use modern study methods; third, we shall enhance the productions' maneuverability; forth, we shall strengthen the investigation innovation in the course of human geography study; at last, we shall reinforce developing the theory construction of human geography.
