衔接是语篇特征的重要内容。通过对比分析中外作者所著语篇的衔接特点,指出以英语为母语的作者在撰写英语语篇时所使用的衔接手段更加丰富多样,而中国学者的衔接手段较为单一。其中,词汇衔接的不足之处最为明显,主要体现在完全重复的过多使用。因此,培养学生的衔接意识,并且改善提高词汇教学方法,是提高中国学者写作衔接质量的重要手段。 Cohesion is an important part of discourse features. By comparing the characteristics of cohesion between Chinese and foreign authors, it is pointed out that the cohesive means used by native English-speaking writers in the writing of English discourse are more diversified, while the cohesion of Chinese scholars is simpler. Among them, the lack of vocabulary cohesion most obvious, mainly reflected in the repeated use of too much. Therefore, cultivating students’ awareness of cohesion and improving the methods of improving vocabulary teaching are important means to improve the quality of cohesion of Chinese scholars.
