摘要
依据Lewis的词块分类理论,运用定量分析的方法,对两组非英语专业大学生英语写作中的词块使用情况进行对比研究,以探究学生在词块使用上的差异及其与写作成绩之间的相关性。研究结果表明:1)两组在词块使用数量、重复率及词块使用错误率方面均存在明显差异。高分组的词块运用水平明显高于低分组;2)四类词块的使用数量与写作成绩均呈正相关,相关程度由高至低依次为:搭配、半固定表达、聚合词及固定表达。
Based on Lewis's chunk classification, a quantitative analysis of chunk use in non-English majors' writings is made between high-score and low-score groups to find out the differences in chunk use between the two groups and to probe into the relationship between chunk competence and writing performance. Results show that 1) there is a wide discrepancy between the two groups in chunk size, chunk repetition, and chunk misuse, which indicates that the high-score group has a much higher level of chunk competence than the low-score group: 2) there is a positive correlation between writing performance and the number of lexical chunks, and the order of correlation degree is that: collocation 〉 semi-fixed expressions 〉 polywords 〉 fixed expressions.
