Cohesion Errors in Writing among EFL Junior Middle School Students

English writing, as a senior form of language using, has irreplaceable value in daily life. For students, meeting the general requirements in the English language learning means to use English in writing skillfully. The purpose of this study is: (1) to analyze the text of junior middle school students' English writing; (2) to explore the use of text cohesion in their compositions; (3) to collect the most common mistakes and types of errors. Through the classification and analysis of various types of errors, it is hoped to help students reduce the use of cohesion errors, improve the writing abilities and provide some suggestions for English writing teaching. Based on the analysis of the 40 students' writings and their use of cohesion devices in compositions, we find that the use of the conjunctions in the data are unevenly distributed, and for most 9th grade students, their use of conjunctions are not diversified enough because of their lack of vocabulary storage. It is finally suggested that teachers should pay attention to the cultivation of students' English thinking mode and the explanation of cohesive knowledge in the teaching of writing.
