语用预设及其对外语教学的启示

Pragmatic Presupposition: Possible Implications in FL Teaching

本文以语用预设的"共知性"和"合适性"为基础,初步探讨了它对外语教学的启示。文中列举了以下四个方面的启示:1)语用预设理论很好地解释了外语教学中的因材施教原则;2)外语教学中的听、说、读、写、译教学应从语篇的角度开展;3)外语教学中必须加强文化背景知识介绍,培养学生的文化意识;4)在外语测试中,大规模运用电脑适应性测试是一条可行途径。

Based on the two striking features of 'mutual knowledge' and 'appropriateness' of pragmatic presupposition, this paper probes into the implications it may provide FL teaching with. It is proposed that: 1) it may help to explain the principle of teaching to learner′s aptitude in FL teaching; 2) FL teaching activities should be conducted with a consideration of discourse coherence;3) we must strengthen the teaching of cultural background so as to cultivate learner′s cultural awareness; 4) the application of computerized adaptive language testing in a large scale is a possible way in FL test activities.
