基于ESP的理工英语学术写作能力探究

On the Ability of the English Academic Writing in the Perspective of ESP

随着社会和科技的发展,社会对英语写作能力提出了更高的要求。目前的大学英语教学还是基础英语教学,主要以语言文字教学为主,听说读写译为其主要教学目标;其写作要求主要是为满足大学英语四、六级作文的写作目标。大学英语教学与专业英语教学之间存在着严重的衔接问题。专业英语教学对学生的写作能力要求很高,需要提高学生的英语学术写作能力,而这种写作是与自己的专业紧密相关的写作模式;在英语教学中学术用途英语(English for Academic Purposes,简称EAP)是从大学英语过渡到专门用途英语(English for Specific Purposes,简称ESP)的一种英语模式,可以帮助衔接大学英语和专业英语。本文主要探讨在ESP视角下的理工英语学术写作能力的培养及提高,以更好地帮助学生满足社会需求,服务社会。
