In this paper, the author conducted an experiment to examine the effectiveness of text reconstruction. The author introduced the experiment data into the formula: |Z|=| (μ-μ 0)/ (σ 0 /√n) |. Based on calculation, the author found that the subjects of experimental group show greater noticing and better acquisition of English passive voice than those of control group. The present study overcame the shortcomings of the prior experimental studies. Previous researchers always choose the past hypothetical conditional in English as the target form. Also their experimental subjects are always the foreign English language learners or high school students. The present study took English passive voice as the target form and took Chinese college English learners as experimental subjects. The findings not only provide some support for the noticing function but also bring some implications for Chinese College English teaching. © 2012 Springer-Verlag GmbH.
