摘要: 为了了解基础教育的成效与问题,为英语专业本科课程的定位和设置以及正在进行的教学改革提供依据,北京外国语大学英语学院对2008年入学的本科生进行了综合素质调查,其中从英语写作能力的调查研究结果发现,来自外国语学校学生的写作成绩明显高于非外国语学校学生的写作成绩,在统计意义上达到显著性水平。大学英语基础阶段写作教学的侧重点应为词汇的丰富度和句式的多样化、行文的连贯性和条理性、以及批判性思维训练。Abstract: In order to assess the effectiveness and identify the problems of secondary education, position the curriculum designed for undergraduates as well as provide rationality for the undergoing teaching reform, the School of English and International Studies of Beijing Foreign Studies University conducted a comprehensive survey on the English majors of 2008 entry. The research on the writing competence of the freshmen suggests that students from foreign language schools outperform those not from foreign language schools in the writing test and that the difference in writing scores has achieved statistical importance. So first-year and second-year writing classes should focus on helping students with their range of vocabulary and sentence variety, cohesion and coherence, as well as critical thinking skills.
