二语词汇习得中背诵法与附带习得法的实证研究

An Experimental Study on Reciting Method and Incidental Method in L2 Vocabulary Acquisition

背诵法和附带习得法是二语习得中常用的两种不同方法。通过调查中国非英语专业学生在阅读语境中的词汇习得现象,发现在附带习得的基础上增加背诵学习对学习者不同知识层面(从认知到运用)的词汇习得能力的提高有很大帮助。背诵是对附带习得的有效补充。综合学习法更适合英语词汇量小的学习者。

Reciting and incidental learning are two basic instructional techniques. It is investigated the role of reading in L2 vocabulary acquisition, and the effect of defferent vocaulary instructional techniques on the vocabulary learning of Chinese university ESL students of different levels. The analysis of the date reveals： 1） reading supplemented with specific vocabulary reciting leads to acquisition of an even greater number of words as well as greater depth of knowledge. 2） Reading plus reciting exercise instruction results in better retention than in incidental learning instruction. 3） Students of low English level can benefit more from the combination of the two methods.
