词汇能力论文：词汇能力、语法能力和工作记忆对阅读理解的影响 【中文摘要】作为听说读写译五项语言基本能力之一,英语学习者的阅读理解能力对于其语言能力的培养和发展具有十分重要的基础性作用,而且阅读理解部分在各项大型考试中均占有较大比重。影响阅读能力的因素很多,主要分为读者因素和文本因素两类。以往的研究也只局限于单个因素的分析,多个因素综合分析的研究相对较少。本研究旨在通过测试英语学习者的词汇、语法、工作记忆和阅读理解能力,通过数据来分析这三个因素对阅读理解能力的影响,从而得出预测性最强的因素。本研究选取31位在上海交通大学学习英语的上海中医药大学针灸专业大一学生作为被试,所有学生都完成了词汇的深度和广度测试、语法判断测试、工作记忆测试和阅读理解能力测试。利用SPSS软件对实验数据进行相关分析和回归分析,得出如下结论:1.接受性词汇和阅读理解能力之间存在显著的正相关,词汇的广度可以预测阅读理解能力的14.5%,而产出性词汇和阅读理解能力之间未发现显著的相关性。2.语法能力和阅读理解能力之间存在显著的正相关,语法水平越高,其阅读能力越强。语法能力对阅读理解的预测性为41.6%。3.工作记忆也和阅读理解能力显著相关,其预测性为31.3%。4.通过回归分析和方差分析,可以看出语法能力对阅读理解的预测性最强。根据实验结果分析,本文还针对如何提高学生的阅读理解能力提出了一些建议,对现有的阅读理解教学具有一定的指导意义。 【英文摘要】As one of the five basic language skills of listening, speaking, reading, writing, and translation, reading comprehension plays a significant role in learners憀anguage proficiency and accounts for a large proportion in many examinations. There are various factors that contribute to reading comprehension. These factors can be categorized into two aspects: reader variables and text variables. But most of the previous studies only focus on one factor. This study is designed to investigate the effects of the three factors on reading comprehension梫ocabulary knowledge, grammatical knowledge and working memory, and try to find out which one serves as the best predictor.The participants in the present study are 33 freshman students majoring in Acupuncture in Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and they are taking English courses in Shanghai Jiao Tong University. All of them have taken test of receptive vocabulary, test of productive vocabulary, grammatical knowledge test, working memory capacity test, and reading comprehension test. The major findings of the study are briefed as follows:First, there exists positive correlation between receptive vocabulary size and EFL reading comprehension performance; receptive vocabulary can account for 14.5% of the variance of reading comprehension performance. While no significant correlation is found between prod
