It is feasible to combine reading, group discussion and writing to express personal views in the English writing course; it is also possible to cultivate both the students' communicative competence in a foreign language and the pivotal qualities in active participation, innovation, initiative, research, critical evaluation and independent decision making for talented language majors. As an important link in promoting quality education in foreign language teaching, the English writing course should reorient its course objectives and teaching approaches in accordance with the already changed student types and the requirements of the society and train the students to have related qualities by adopting the process focused approach.
