基于语法隐喻认知的高职院校英语阅读教学研究

Probing into English Reading Teaching Based on English Grammatical Metaphor

语法隐喻是语法层面的隐喻功能,指语法结构不能直接体现话语意义,或同一语义概念在语法层出现非常规的体现方式。语法隐喻包括概念隐喻、人际隐喻和语篇隐喻。语法隐喻典型的体现方式是动作过程名词化,或逻辑意义动词化。名词化和动词化的过程是西方民族逻辑思维模式的反映,是中国学生英语阅读的障碍。然阅读教学中有意识地强调语法隐喻,并从语法隐喻出发引导学生对其进行认知、识别、分析和利用,可培养学生的英语思维能力、语体能力和语篇能力,从而达到良好的阅读效果。

Grammatical metaphor is a grammatical phenomenon,in which a semantic unit is expressed rather with grammatically transformed pattern than with a direct pattern.Grammatical metaphor consists of conceptua,interpersonal and discourse metaphor,and appears as"nominalization of action process"or"verb transformation of logical meaning",which reflect western people’s thinking patterns and cause reading difficulties among Chinese EFL readers.However,on the other hand,to cognize,analyze and utilize grammatical metaphor in reading teaching are to help to promote Chinese readers’logical thinking ability,stylistic ability and discourse ability.
