以衔接理论和中介语对比理论为基础,利用第二军医大学自建写作语料库,选取医学专业学习者语料、英语本族语者语料各三十篇样本,分别从增补型、转折型、原因型和时间型连接衔接的四个方面出发,对比各类连接手段在两类语料中的使用频率,分析我国医学专业学习者和英语本族语者在英语写作中连接衔接手段使用情况的差异、原因及其对教学的启示。
Based on cohesion theory and contrastive interlanguage analysis, we studied the frequency of four conjunctive cohesive devices ( additive, adversative, causal and temporal conjunctions ) in 30 samples written by Chinese medical students and 30 by English native speakers from our self- constructed writing corpus. In addition, differences in using conjunctive cohesive devices and causes are analyzed; some implications for teaching are discussed.
