Conclusion

According to the results of the data and the discussions on the research questions,we draw the following conclusions: the general profile of grammatical competence of the students in VocationalColleges is not so good. They fail to master solid grammatical knowledge in terms ofgrammatical form and semantic meaning, and also demonstrate their low proficiencyin pragmatic use according to the results of the test. Moreover, the participants’grammatical competence is not developed at the same rate in terms of the threedimensions.From analyzing the items in grammatical competence test, besides their poorgrammatical competence, we also find some problems of grammatical competence.Though students in Vocational Colleges have experienced grammar learning in theirprevious study, their grammatical knowledge is fragmentary. They really do not havesolid grammatical knowledge including grammatical form and semantic meaning asEnglish majors. Besides, they do not know how to use some grammar pointsappropriately. Moreover, they tend to lack the awareness of grammar at discourselevel.
