1.1 Background of the Study
当前，我们与其他国家一道在经济和贸易的交流不断增加，以及在政治，文化和其他领域在全球范围内具有良好的英语交际能力的高素质人才急需。因此，有效的培训大量合格的人才与先进的英语水平，尤其是在口语和写作沟通而来的顶部上，我们的英语教育议程。此外，根据2017年教育部颁布的新的大学英语课程教学要求“，在校大学生，通过系统化的英语培训，应该能够使用英语一幢全方位的方式，包括听，说，读，英语论文网站，写，译。解析并改善大学英语教学是培养这些能力，以确保学生将能够沟通或交换信息，有效地用英语在今后的工作。Currently, high-quality personnel with good English communicative competenceare badly needed in the global context with our increasing exchanges with othercountries in economy and trade, as well as in politics, culture and other fields.Therefore, the effective training of a great number of qualified personnel withadvanced English proficiency, especially in oral and writing communication comes onthe top of our English Educational agenda. In addition, according to the new CollegeEnglish Curriculum Requirements issued by the Ministry of Education in 2017,college students, through systematic English training, should be able to use English inan all-round way, including listening, speaking, reading, writing and translation. Theobjective of College English teaching is to develop these abilities to ensure that thestudents will be able to communicate or exchange information effectively in Englishin their future work.
写作，作为一个主要的生产技能，已成为大学英语教学的一个重要组成部分。文秋芳（1996）声称，英语写作能力将成为在21世纪对人才的最重要的标准之一。在学习外国语言，写作被看作是一个非常复杂和艰巨的任务，英语论文范文，需要整个运用程序的语言技能。换而言之，作家通过写作，为了明确的书面词语的含义，必须充分利用识字潜力。作家必须协商的写作规则和技师而维持一家专注于整体组织形式，特点和用途等。成为什么，他们认为该点在讨论如何写清楚，需要由读者理解激发了作家强烈。因此，写作本身是一个综合性的生产，就像一个人的英语知识刘润清（1991）声称，只有写作水平才能真正体现一个人的语言能力。Writing, as a major productive skill, has become an important part of CollegeEnglish teaching and learning. Wen Qiufang (1996) claims that English writing abilitywill become one of the most important criteria for qualified personnel in the 21stcentury. In learning a foreign language, writing is seen as a highly complex anddemanding task which requires the overall application of the language skills. In otherwords, writers have to make full use of the literacy potential through writing in orderto make clear the meaning of written words. Writers must negotiate writing rules andmechanics while maintaining a focus on overall organization such as form, featuresand purposes. The need to be understood by the readers motivates the writers stronglyto become clear about what they think of the point under discussion and how to write about it. Thus writing itself is a comprehensive production of one's Englishknowledge, just as Liu Runqing (1991) has claimed that only the writing proficiencycan truly reflect a man's language proficiency.
Besides, it is admitted that writing contributes a lot to promoting the Englishproficiency, i.e. writing skill is considered as a supportive skill to the development ofother skills, since it provides a particularly effective opportunity for learning in theprocess of writing. Therefore, development of students' writing ability should be themajor concern of English education at the present time.Previous research at home and abroad suggest that meta-cognitive strategies playa critical role in enhancing English writing performance. Theoretically,meta-cognitive strategies can be applied to college English writing class to improvestudents' writing proficiency. A great many of studies have been worked on this pointand got the positive feedback, however, the empirical study in this field is ratherinadequate so that we fail to know exactly whether and how the application ofmeta-cognitive strategies does work
