英语论文中话语联系语的对比研究

无论在篇章语言学还是在语用学研究中,话语联系语均被认为具有重要功能。篇章语言学家认为,话语联系语是实现篇章语义连贯的重要手段;语用学家认为,话语联系语的作用更多地体现在为话语的理解指路导航。本文运用基于语料库的研究方法,对比分析了中国学习者与英语母语者在英语论文中使用话语联系语的差别,结果显示:(1)中国学习者在论文写作中比母语者倾向于更多地使用联系语;(2)二者使用的联系语在语义分布上大致相同;(3)在每一类别内部具体联系语的使用上二者存在较大差异,主要表现为:学习者机械套用,欠缺必要的文体意识,及在表示列举、总结、转题和推论时,倾向于借助明显的联系语来达到发展主题的目的。本文试从连贯理论与关联理论的角度出发,对可能造成以上差异的原因进行了分析,并进一步对话语联系语的教学提出了一些建议。     

Weak disintegrability as a form of preservation of coherence

Summary Weak disintegrations are investigated from various points of view. Kolmogorov's definition of conditional probability is critically analysed, and it is noted how the notion of disintegrability plays some role in connecting Kolmogorov's definition with the one given in line with de Finetti's coherence principle. Conditions are given, on the domain of a prevision, implying the equivalence between weak disintegrability and conglomerability. Moreover, weak sintegrations are characterized in terms of coherence, in de Finetti's sense, of, a suitable function. This fact enables us to give, an interpretation of weak disintegrability as a form of “preservation of coherence”. The previous results are also applied to a hypothetical inferential problem. In particular, an inference is shown to be coherent, in the sense of Heath and Sudderth, if and only if a suitable function is coherent, in de Finetti's sense.

衔接 连贯与阅读理解

衔接是语篇特征的重要内容.尽管语义上连贯的语篇可以没有形式上的衔接纽带,但在大多数自然出现的语篇中是存在衔接纽带的,这些纽带不仅会增强语篇的连贯性,而且对阅读理解有着很大的帮助作用.分析衔接与阅读的关系以及如何应用照应、替代、省略、连接和词汇衔接纽带促进并加深对语篇的理解.     

语篇理解过程及其心理机制

从认知心理学、心理语言学角度讨论了语篇理解的过程及其心理机制。首先从命题、推断、局部与整体连贯三个层次上讨论了语篇理解的认知过程 ;然后从认知构件、认知理解模式对认知结构的模拟以及语篇处理过程中的资源限制三个维度论述了语篇理解的心理机制。文章最后指出 ,语篇理解研究的进一步深化取决于研究方法的改进和研究领域的拓展     

语篇的衔接与连贯问题

语篇源自语言交际,是高于句子的层面,表示一个整体意义;语篇的衔接与连贯,分属两个概念,应该区别对待。语篇对于连贯的依赖似乎更为明显:衔接方式得当但语义不贯通的话语不是合格的语篇,衔接方式不明显但语义贯通的话语是合格的语篇;立足于语篇的基础理论,有利于我们提高对衔接与连贯的理性思考,可有效地防止在语篇分析过程中出现较大的偏误。     

从关联理论看语篇连贯

语篇连贯是语篇与非语篇的最大区别 ,韩礼德和哈桑把语篇的显性衔接看作是连贯的必要前提条件 ,本文对此作了批评 ,并以斯佩尔和威尔逊的关联理论为基点 ,集中讨论用关联认知方法构建连贯的语篇。     

英汉科技语篇翻译中的连贯意识

文章结合实例对翻译中的语篇连贯问题进行了讨论,强调在翻译过程中译者具备明确的连贯意识的重要性,指出韩礼德的系统功能语言学可以为翻译理论及翻译实践提供理论依据和理论支持。     

语篇连贯:显性连贯与隐性连贯

英、汉语篇都具有两种连贯方式,即显性连贯与隐性连贯。显性连贯的语篇使用各种明显的衔接手段,如照应、省略、替代、连接等语法手段和重复、同义词、反义词、下义词、局部关系词和搭配等词汇手段把语篇中不同的成分从意义上联系起来。而隐性连贯有赖于语境和语用知识的推导。“合作原则”和“关联原则”对没有形式上的衔接的语篇连贯颇有解释力,读者掌握的文化知识,包括话语发生时的特定情景对语篇的连贯解读也很重要。     

Is there a field of social work?: Trainees evaluating social problems and social work

My aim was to study the experiences and priorities of two age groups of social work students practicing in client-centered social work. This article is based on the research on rationality and language games in social work. The target groups of the research project as a whole were the actors: the heads and social workers or activists in public social welfare and health care agencies and institutions and in voluntary associations and action groups, and finally, two subsequent classes of students from a school of social work, during their practicing periods. This article concentrates on the trainees. At first, the trainees wrote essays and kept diaries. Secondly, they marked their standings on graphs visualizing different types of information contents and social relation structures. Thirdly, they made their choices of reasons for and solutions to social problems on a problem wheel. The trainees' study, using different data gathering techniques, partly confirms the results of the research of the other actor groups, in which the data were derived using questionnaires and interviews. The trainees' study shows variation in the respondents' priorities within and between specified social problem categories. Qualitatively analyzed, however, the characterizations of social work, both those who currently act in and those aiming to enter this field, resemble one another.     

语篇中的语气分析及研究

语言是一种交际工具,作为人际意义的语气在交际过程中起非常重要的作用,使用不同的语气可能会产生截然不同的效果。文章从语境暗示、人际关系、连贯性和交际目的等方面阐述了语篇中语气的选择。第一部分阐述语气和语境的关系;第二部分阐述语气如何体现人际关系;第三部分阐述语气如何达到语篇中的连贯性;第四部分阐述语气的选择与交际的目的。其目的在于阐明选择恰当的语气,能实现有效的交际。
