1.Introduction copyright paper51.com 1.1 Background of the Research 内容来自www.paper51.com 1.1.1 Importance of English Writing paper51.com Nowadays,writing, especially English writing has been used as a mean of transmittingscience and the latest information. Therefore, people in the educationalcircles widely think much of writing. There are statistics showing that mostuniversities in Chinaattach importance to students’ English writing.（Liu Shangfu，1998）In fact, Englishsyllabuses have made the relevant stipulation for students’ abilities ofwriting. In 1983, a survey about the graduates in Shanghai CommunicationsUniversity showed that 25.14% technical men were required to write articles inEnglish in their jobs（Liu Shangfu，1998）. As is known to all thatamong the “four basic skills” (i.e., reading, listening, speaking and writing)in English learning, writing plays a more and more significant role for Englishlearners. In various kinds of English tests, writing usuallytakes up a large percentage of total points, especially for the English majors.Take the TEM4 and TEM8 for examples: in TEM4, writing is made up of two parts. Oneis a composition which takes up 15 points; the other is a note-writing whichhas 10 points, together ranking 1/4 of its total scores. While in TEM8, writinghas a percentage of 20 in thetotal score. It is believed, to some degree, that English writing abilities reflectthe English level of an English learner. However, writing is a complex activity whosecomponents and sub-components involve actions at a number of levels, requiringproficiency in several areas of skill and knowledge (Archibald & Jeffery,2000). The complexity of mastering writing skills for English writers iscompounded by the difficulties inherent in learning a foreign language. As a result, English learners are generally weak in writing. copyright paper51.com |
