认知视角下的语篇连贯及其教学思考

A cognitive approach to text coherence and its teaching application

选用认知法,强调语篇的连贯是语篇本身与人脑相互作用的结果。语篇表层的连接手段可能对一些重形合的语言连贯起到一定的作用,但对于重意合的语言的语篇连贯分析还在于读者的经验、世界知识、借助相关事件的理想认知模型。语篇连贯的认知过程是一个动态的心智活动过程,它是人脑不断调整修正的结果。语篇的接受和产生的认知过程应用到语篇教学活动中对提高语篇教学效果具有重要意义。

A cognitive approach is adopted, which emphasizes that coherence in texts is the result of the interaction between the text and human brain. The superficial means of cohesion have some effect on some hypotaxis languages, but they have little effect on some parataxis languages. The analysis of coherence in texts in the latter languages has to refer to the reader＇s experience, world knowledge and some ideal cognitive models formulated from certain backgrouds. The cognitive process of the coherence in texts is a dynamic process of mental activities, a process in which the mind adjusts and corrects the comprehension. This interactive way of one＇s mind and text can also be applied in the teaching and learning of language.
