Abstract:The development of writing skills is extremely important for second language learners. There are lots of influencing factors that time is one of them, in-depth study of the impact of the idea of Chinese learners of English writing quality of great significance for the Teaching of Second Language Writing. In previous work, researchers pay more attention to the idea of time on the macroscopic quality of student work, such as composition of fluency, complexity and accuracy. Lack of in-depth discussion of the micro-level characteristics such as vocabulary building, and like the idea of the length of time would be writing vocabulary breadth, depth, impact, which makes us unable to depth understanding of the work characteristics of second language students. Therefore, further study is particularly essential to the idea of the length of time in the process of writing the microscopic terms.
This paper mainly studies to explore a different idea of time foreign language learners of English composition, the use of computer-aided second language analysis method works vocabulary to use to conduct a study to quantify the qualitative point of view fully reveals the learners' vocabulary use characteristics. Collecting students given 5 minutes, 10 minutes of the idea of time to complete the composition, the composition through computer-aided analysis of the second language for a specific analysis of the vocabulary, based on scientific data to study the idea of time the use of the impact of vocabulary in second language writing. The results show that even though there is some influence on the quality of second language learning, the different lengths of time for planning has no significant on the lexical performance of the written products. In this study, the teaching of writing and testing have some inspiration.
