论文摘要: 本论文基于对中国英语专业学习者(CEM)英语语料中的词汇错误所进行的分析以及词汇学习策略所做的调查,通过对其结果所进行的科学的数据分析和详尽的讨论,试图描绘出中国英语专业学习者词汇习得能力的现状,概括出其能力结构。本研究旨在找出形成此能力的学习者内部因素和外部原因,从而更有针对性地开展词汇教学,以高效地提高学生的词汇能力。同时,作者还期望本研究的结果对未来的词汇习得理论的构建有一定的参考价值。词汇习得能力(VAC)是本文作者在对相关词汇习得理论和研究综述的基础上提出的“综合式互动词汇习得能力系统”(I&I VAS,见56页Fig.9)中的核心成分,由词汇能力(VA)和词汇策略能力(VSC)两大因素构成。作为词汇习得能力模式的核心,学习者的词汇能力包括“心理词汇”(ML)以及词汇使用的语境和策略。其中词汇知识是“心理词汇”的存在实体,知识的加工是“心理词汇”的动态过程,两者都离不开具体的使用语境和使用策略,并且受到学习者内部个体因素和外部学习环境的影响。词汇策略能力(VSC)是指词汇使用策略和习得策略的结合体。这一系统充分体现了“词汇习得”的动态特征。其中涉及到的各因素及其关系有利于我们描述学习者的真实的动态的词汇习得过程,并探索该过程背后的原因。“学习者语言”被认为是一个不断发展的连续体,而词汇能力既是学习者语言的一个重要组成部分,也是一个动态习得的过程。因此,本文提出的“词汇习得能力”是一种更高级的能力结构,以动态发展为重要特征。学习者需要具有敏锐的词汇意识,随时随地运用策略学习和使用词汇,从而使自己的“心理词汇”得到不断的加工、更新、整合、优化和提高,以便于进一步的词汇习得。这一“循环效应(Cyclical Effect)”正是动态词汇习得能力系统的重要特征。只要遵循并利用这一效应,使其不断发挥作用,一定能获得自主学习词汇的能力和自主习得语言才能力,最终成为一名成功的语言学习者。词汇,作为语言的重要组成部分,一项被认为是与语音和语法并列的不可或缺的语言系统的三大支柱之一。在现代交际教学理论中,词汇也被看作是影响交际效果的
