背诵输入用于非英语专业英语写作教学的研究

Applying Recitation Input to the Teaching of English Writing for Non-English Majors

写作能力是学习者外语交际能力的重要组成部分。但目前我国非英语专业英语写作教学一直很薄弱,学生作文普遍存在着语言输出匮乏、受母语负迁移影响严重等现象。究其原因是应试倾向严重,对学生语言输入方面的训练不够。背诵输入与最佳输入的特征极为相似,它能增加学生语言输入,强化语感,克服母语负迁移,降低学生写作中的焦虑感,并增强记忆。只要教师善于引导并能策略性地融背诵于写作教学中,背诵输入法将会是一个非常有效的写作教学辅助模式,对提高学生的写作能力将会起到事半功倍的作用。

Writing ability is an essential part of the learner＇s communicative competence. Presently, however, English writing teaching for non-English majors is very weak, which is mainly reflected by learners＇ substandard and inadequate writing output resulted from the currently unpleasant examinationoriented writing teaching and learning. The characteristics of recitation input are very similar to those of optimal language input in that recitation can increase learners＇ language input, reinforce their language sense, overcome negative transfer of one＇s mother tongue, reduce the anxiety in writing process and strengthen, to a great extent, the learner＇s memory power. If only recitation is skillfully and tactfully integrated into writing teaching, it will be very effective to assist writing teaching and help improve learners＇ writing ability greatly.
