高中生英语读后续写中的语言僵化现象及成因分析

Students’problems and causes on continuation writing from the perspective of fossilization of interlanguage

读后续写是新高考的得分热点,备受重视。而中介语僵化是二语习得的常见现象,也是学生习作中难以解决的痛点。通过对黄石某高中高一某班级期末考试读后续写的作文进行卷面分析和学生访谈,将学生的语言僵化分类成词汇僵化、语法僵化和语篇僵化。根据Selinker提出的“中介语僵化”五大分类方式,即母语迁移、培训迁移、学习策略、交际策略和目的语概括对学生的语言僵化进行成因分析。最后结合教学实践,对教师的“教”和学生的“学”提出切实可行的改进方案。

Continuation writing,as the newly adopted form of writing in the redesigned National Matriculation English Test,has commanded the attention of high school teachers and students,both of whom have long been troubled by interlanguage fossilization,a common phenomenon in second language acquisition.In this paper,the researcher analyzes samples of continuation writing by an entire class of grade 10 students in their final English test in a high school in the city of Huangshi,and identifies three types interlanguage fossilization therein,namely,the fossilization of vocabulary,of grammar and of discourse.Then,the researcher points out the possible causes of fossilization based on Selinker's categorization(first language transfer,training transfer,learning strategies,communication strategies,and overgeneralization)and interviews with the students.Finally,the researcher proposes strategies and methods for improvement for both teachers and students in terms of continuation writing.
