Abstract
With questionnaire, the study investigated 128 ethnic minority students' preferences for English reading motivations and strategies, correlations of their motivations, strategies with scores, as well as differences between the high proficiency group and the low proficiency group. The descriptive statistics showed that the subjects favoured reading for developing most. Biviriate Correlations Analysis indicated that their motivation of reading for developing and interest in reading were significantly positively correlated to their scores, but other factors were not. Independent-Samples T Test proved that the high proficiency group were much better in reading for developing, for grades and interest in reading, and there were no significant differences in their English reading ability and strategies between the two groups.
