摘要
输出理论是指在学习第二门语言遇到问题时会促使我们进一步学习这种语言的理论。正因为意识到了学习时遇到问题,学习者就会改善它的输出,从而学习有关这门语言的新知识。尽管苏安宣称这种输出并不是第二语言知识获得的唯一途径,但在语言产生的相关大脑活动中,输出理论促使了第二语言的学习,它有别于输入理论,却又可以加强输入。本文在介绍了苏安的输出理论的基础上,阐述了这一理论对英语口语和写作教学的指导意义。
The comprehensible output(CO)hypothesis states that learning takes place when encountering a gap in the linguistic knowledge of the second language.By noticing this gap,the learner becomes aware of it and might be able to modify his output so that he learns something new about the language.Although Swain does not claim that comprehensible output is solely responsible for all or even most language acquisition,she does claim that under some conditions,CO facilitates second language learning in ways that differ from and enhance input due to the mental processes connected with the production of language.It mainly introduaes Swain's CO,also discuss the leading meaning of CO to English Speaking and writing teaching.
