2。Students do not have a proper amount of vocabulary。 It is not a uncommon phenomenon in China nowadays that many students’ size of vocabulary is not big enough to support their daily communication。 The poor size of vocabulary results in the phenomenon that sometimes students could not translate the Chinese into English fluently and correctly, then they could not express their true ideas clearly, at the same time, students’ trains of thought would always be interrupted in this process, and at last, the English writing becomes hard to go on。

  3。The sentence patterns that students use are usually simple and short。 The correct use of grammar plays an important role in English writing。 In order to reduce the grammar mistakes, many students would  always choose to use the short and simple sentence。 Actually, practice makes perfect, it is hard to improve students’ writing abilities if they never practice the new sentence patterns in their daily learning。 

  4。The relationships between sentences are not so logically structured。 The ultimate goal of writing is fluently and efficiently communicating and conveying the writer’s ideas to the readers。 So a clear and logical relationship really matters much in a comprehensible piece of writing, which could reflects the inner thoughts and feelings of learners smoothly。
