Theme-rheme theory and reading comprehension

阅读作为英语学习策略之一,长期以来一直是英语学习中探索的重点和核心。探讨阅读理解的理论模式以及阅读技巧,成为研究者所关注的焦点。文章基于韩礼德的功能语法,从语篇功能的主述位结构探讨阅读理解,论证其在操作上的适用性和可行性,为英语阅读教学提供一个新的视角。

As an important skill which language learners are supposed to acquire, the research on reading models and skills has long been the focus of the foreign language teaching. Based on the functional grammar by Halliday, this paper explores the reading comprehension from the perspective of theme-rheme structure in textual function and aims to illustrate the practicality and feasibility of the theory. It is expected to improve the reading comprehension and be of great help to the teaching of the foreign language reading.
