初二学生英语写作的错误分析
摘要英语写作在英语学习中占有非常重要的地位。然而目前普通初中学生的英语写作现状并不尽如人意，师生都为此感到困惑。因此，本文以中介语及错误分析理论为理论基础，旨在研究初二学生在英语写作方面存在错误的类型，错误的主要来源以及相关的解决策略。
通过对在同一位教师指导下、写作水平接近的两个班，134份语料中产生的1336个错误的整体分析，笔者将对拼写错误、词汇错误以及语法错误进行分类。研究结果表明初二学生在语法错误中出现的问题最多，其次为词汇错误。除此之外，研究结果还发现错误的主要原因是语际、语间迁移和诱发性错误。针对错误的类型和三大错误原因，本文提出了几种旨在提高初二学生英语写作水平的教学策略，例如，为语言的输出提供丰富的易于理解的语言输入；加强课上的练习并采用多样的方法进行写作评价等。
