I. Introduction
English reading and writing has become an effective ways to get access to all kinds of information and international communication. Senior school students’ English writing is vital to their inpidual development. Take the National College Entrance Examination for example，students ‘average score in the writing part in 2013 was only about 13.85 out of the total score of 30 in Henan Province. The students’ writing ability is rather weak. In order to improve the teaching of English writing. Some scholars have done a lot of researches. However, few studies are focused on how to improve the senior school students’ writing ability by integrating English newspaper reading with writing. A substantial body of research has been devoted to the theoretical and pedagogic aspects of this area, exploring problems in students’ English writing and examining major barriers in the development of their writing ability. So far there have been many scholars to research this problem. Krashen has concluded that reading can promote language development because interesting and comprehensible input will result in language acquisition. Gardner has pointed out that a most effective way to produce large-scale vocabulary growth is through all activity-reading, providing more comprehensible input seems to be a more reasonable strategy. Since knowledge is a by-product of experience, extensive reading can help students increase their reading proficiency by developing a large sight vocabulary and text structure knowledge as well as their motivation to reading and writing. 通过英文报刊阅读提高高中生英语写作能力的研究:http://www.751com.cn/yingyu/lunwen_18493.html
