英文摘要写作中衔接手段的错误分析

论文摘要

本文以功能语法衔接理论为基础,利用对比分析和错误分析的方法,分别从照应、连接、替代和省略四个方面分析了中英文摘要语篇衔接手段的差异。在此基础上,对从中国知网随机抽取的自动化、新闻、经济三个专业的三十篇硕士研究生毕业论文英文摘要的语篇衔接错误进行了定量和定性分析,统计各衔接手段使用的频率、错误率和占衔接错误总量的比率,并总结出其产生的原因及特点。研究结果表明,英文摘要写作中照应错误出现的频率居四种衔接手段之首,即照应衔接手段的使用是中国学习者的弱项。最后,本文得出如下结论:衔接手段的使用过度和使用不当是影响英文摘要写作质量的重要因素;衔接手段的学习有助于提高学习者的语篇意识;课堂教学中实例与实践尤为重要。
