The author designs and carries out genre analysis tasks concerning Introduction, Body, Conclusion and Abstract of research articles in English Academic Writing course for Chinese EFL graduate learners. It’s found that these tasks are helpful in raising learners’ rhetorical consciousness and most learners are capable and cooperative in dealing with these tasks, while factors like subject difference, individual motivation and language proficiency affect task performance, upon which pedagogical implications are drawn to help promote academic English teaching for Chinese EFL graduate learners.
