语篇分析理论在高中英语写作教学的应用

论文摘要

英语教学者和研究者越来越重视对语篇分析理论的应用研究。语篇分析研究的是句子层面之上的语言使用和构建,语篇分析理论主要包括衔接和连贯的理论,宏观结构理论等。目前在高中英语写作教学方面还存在很多问题:如学生不会运用重复、同义词、反义词等衔接手段连贯段落与全文等,本文通过加强培养学生的整体篇章建构能力,可以提高学生的英语写作能力。本文以语篇分析理论为指导,从语篇分析这个基本概念出发,提出了在高中英语写作教学中运用语篇分析的观点,采用理论分析、举例、问卷、实验等方法,探讨语篇分析的衔接、连贯、语篇结构等内容,论证了高中英语写作教学运用语篇分析理论的可行性。然后从实践的角度呈现语篇分析教学的基本模式和过程。本项研究的结果表明,运用语篇分析理论来指导高中英语写作教学可以取得良好的效果。
