Abstract

This study, grounded in the practical context of college English teaching and illustrated with teaching examples, proposes targeted "reading-to-writing" instructional strategies and actionable implementation pathways to help students enhance their English writing proficiency through reading input. Focusing on practical details throughout the teaching process, it deconstructs methods for integrating reading and writing via concrete teaching cases, clarifies key guidance points for instructors and practical tasks for students, and ensures the strategies are operational and targeted. The study provides practical references for resolving the disconnection between reading and writing in frontline college English teaching, thereby promoting the synergistic development of students' English reading and writing abilities.
