Abstract

For many Chinese college English learners, the appropriateness and correctness use of vocabulary in English writing is a tough job. Many students attribute their failure of using right words in writing to poor vocabulary. Does this opinion make sense? This paper first lists common problems existing in college English writings then moves to analyze the causes of these problems with psycholinguistic theories. Finally it provides strategies suggestions for students to master the appropriate use of vocabulary in writing.
