摘    要:在大学获得成功很大程度上取决于学生有效阅读说明文的能力,研读说明文不仅为了获取和了解信息,也为了考试。领悟进程的一个重要成分是读者连接现有信息与先前信息的能力。文本连接过程的其中一方为逻辑关系。这些文本手段明确标志大量文本信息是如何在一个具体逻辑语义关系中彼此关联的。本文报导此项研究结果,其调查了英语为第二语言的学生阅读说明文时结合与文中例证的、因果的、转折的逻辑连接相关的信息的能力。研究结果显示,理解说明文中逻辑关系的能力与学术成绩和第二语言熟练程度有极深的关系。学术成绩差的学生尤其觉得因果关系和转折关系具有挑战性。

关 键 词:学生  说明文  逻辑关系  学术成绩  实证研究

Abstract:Success at university depends to a large extent on students′ability to read expository texts effectively in order to not only gain and understand information,but also pass an exam.An important component of the comprehension process is the reader′s ability to connect current information with information mentioned previously.One aspect of this text connecting process involves logical connectives.These are text devices that explicitly signal how chunks of information in a text are related to one another in a specific logical semantic relationship.This paper reports on findings from a study that investigated ESL students′ ability to connect information linked by illustrative,causal and adversative logical connectives during the reading of expository texts.The findings show a robust relationship between the ability to comprehend logical relations in expository text on the one hand,and academic performance and ESL proficiency levels on the other hand.In particular,the academically poor performers found causal and adversative relations challenging.
Keywords:students  expository text  logical relations  academic performance  an empirical study
