The Construct of the Story Continuation Writing Task: Insights From the China’s Standards of English Language Ability

Although the story continuation writing task(SCWT) has attracted much research attention, few studies have investigated the construct of the task, particularly with respect to which language competence it focuses on. In addition, although some studies have demonstrated that China’s Standards of English Language Ability(CSE) provides comprehensive insights into the development of Chinese learners’ English language proficiency, little research has investigated the relationship between CSE and SCWT. This study drew upon the CSE to develop an SCWT language use inventory to address the above research gaps. A total of 358 high school students were asked to complete the questionnaire, of which 277 valid responses were analyzed. Exploratory factor analysis(EFA) on the CSE-based questionnaire revealed the presence of six factors, namely language correctness, language variety, task planning, connecting-and-generating, selecting-andmining, and organizing. The strategy of connecting-and-generating was the only significant predictor of the learners’ SCWT scores. The paper also discusses the findings relating to the SCWT rating and other integrated writing tasks.

CONSCLOUSNESS—RAISING OR EXPLICIT INSTRUCTION?——A REVIEW OF CELCE—MURCIA'S“GRAMMAR PEDAGOGY IN SECOND AND FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING”

激光直写中S曲线光强控制模型的参数优化(英文)

提出了一种S曲线光强控制模型的参数优化方法。在分析S曲线光强控制模型的参数变化对线条闭合质量影响的基础上,以对接区域曝光量分布曲线恰好存在一个极值点时为最优,确定出光强控制模型中的圆弧弧度θ和曲率半径R的函数关系。基于该优化方法的对接区域长度由θ唯一确定,且当θ较小时,其仅为斜线段光强控制方法确定的对接长度的2倍。实验结果与理论分析吻合,表明该优化方法进一步增加了对接区域曝光量分布的有效过渡长度,减缓了曝光量在路径方向上的变化速率,从而在保证直写效率的同时提高了线条对接质量。
