This paper reports on an empirical study that applies the Length Approach in the teaching of college English writing to Chinese non-English majors.Specifically,the study probes into the effect of the Length Approach on the reduction of the students’ writing anxiety and the development of their ability to write in English.The study results show that the Length Approach significantly reduces the students’ writing anxiety and improves their writing ability.They also reveal that two major elements of the Length Approach,i.e.(1) a scoring scheme that highlights good points in compositions and reports scores in terms of four components,and(2) abundant opportunities for students to produce comprehensible output in the written mode,have exerted significant positive effect on the reduction of writing anxiety and the development of writing ability.
