非英语专业学生阅读理解对写作技能的贡献

Contribution of EFL Reading Comprehension to Writing Skill Development among Non-English Majors

借助于阅读语篇、写作任务和开放式问卷,考察了非英语专业二年级学生英语阅读理解能力对写作技能的贡献。调查结果肯定了阅读理解对学生写作风格、词汇、总体思路、背景知识、连词以及拼写等诸方面的贡献。此外,在段落拓展、主题结构、开头和结尾等方面阅读对写作都有着积极的影响。被试还提到了面对阅读与写作时的困难,大多与阅读语篇的难度和话题的熟悉程度有关,部分被试在写作时过多地依赖阅读语篇。此研究结果对大学英语教学有着重要的启示。
