【摘要】：英语阅读在英语教学中占有十分重要的地位,提高英语阅读能力是英语教学中的主要目标之一。近年来,认知语言学中的转喻理论为英语阅读教学提供了新的视角并且已经得到了越来越多的关注和重视。概念转喻不仅是一种修辞格,更是一种认知的思维方式,转喻思维体现在语言的各个方面,是一种与语言教学密切相关的语言运用能力。根据文献分析,较少研究者涉及关注概念转喻在初中英语阅读教学中的价值,将此理论应用到实际教学中的情况则更少。鉴于此,笔者试图通过实验研究检测概念转喻是否能够有效促进初中生英语阅读水平的提高,设计研究实验试图探讨以下两个问题:(1)初中生学习概念转喻在何种程度上能够影响他们的转喻知识水平?(2)初中生转喻能力在何种程度上能够影响他们的阅读理解水平?作者选取了广州市一所初中初三两个班级作为研究对象。在实验组进行概念转喻相关教学,而在控制组按照传统教学方法进行,不涉及概念转喻知识教学。实验周期为12周。实验开始之前,笔者采用调查问卷的形式,收集学生的英语阅读兴趣、英语阅读习惯及对转喻知识的相关了解这三方面内容,为后期研究提供相关信息。接着是实验前测,前测旨在考察实验组和控制组学生在阅读水平上是否有显著差异。实验过程中由笔者进行两个组的课程授课,实验组采取基于概念转喻理论的阅读教学方式,控制组则按照传统的阅读教学方式。实验中期对实验班进行了第一次阅读水平后测和第一次转喻水平测试,旨在检测前半段时间基于概念转喻教学方式的效果。实验后期,进行第二次阅读水平后测和第二次转喻水平测试,旨在考察实验后,学生阅读水平的发展变化和转喻理解水平的发展变化。实验结束后,进行相关数据收集,作者使用SPSS软件进行相关数据统计和分析。本研究基于数据结果分析,证实了基于概念转喻的英语阅读教学能够促进学生阅读水平的提高。因此,本研究认为在初中英语阅读教学中运用概念转喻理论是可行的。最后,作者提出了一些教学启示,实验的不足以及今后的研究建议。
[Abstract]:English reading plays an important role in English teaching. In recent years, metonymy theory in cognitive linguistics has provided a new perspective for English reading teaching and has attracted more and more attention. Conceptual metonymy is not only a rhetorical figure but also a cognitive mode of thinking. Metonymy thinking is embodied in all aspects of language and is a language application ability closely related to language teaching. According to the literature analysis, few researchers are concerned about the value of conceptual metonymy in junior high school English reading teaching, and the application of this theory to practical teaching is even less. In view of this, the author attempts to test whether conceptual metonymy can effectively promote the improvement of junior high school students' English reading level through experimental research. The design experiment attempts to explore the following two questions: (1) to what extent does conceptual metonymy affect their metonymy knowledge level; (2) to what extent can junior high school students' metonymy ability influence their reading comprehension level? The author chooses two classes of junior high school in Guangzhou as the research object. Conceptual metonymy related teaching was carried out in the experimental group, while in the control group, it was carried out according to the traditional teaching method, which did not involve the teaching of conceptual metonymy knowledge. The experimental period was 12 weeks. Before the beginning of the experiment, the author collected the students' reading interest, English reading habits and metonymy knowledge in order to provide relevant information for the later study. Then there is the pretest. The purpose of the pretest is to investigate whether there are significant differences in reading level between the experimental group and the control group. In the course of the experiment, the author taught the courses in two groups. The experimental group adopted the reading teaching method based on conceptual metonymy theory, while the control group adopted the traditional reading teaching method. In the middle of the experiment, the first reading level post test and the first metonymy level test were carried out in the experimental class, in order to test the effect of conceptual metonymy teaching in the first half of the period. In the later stage of the experiment, the second reading level post-test and the second metonymy level test were carried out to investigate the development of students' reading level and metonymy comprehension level. At the end of the experiment, the author collected the relevant data and used SPSS software to statistics and analyze the relevant data. Based on the data analysis, this study proves that Conceptual metonymy based English reading teaching can promote the improvement of students' reading level. Therefore, it is feasible to apply Conceptual metonymy in English reading teaching in junior high school. Finally, the author puts forward some teaching enlightenment, the deficiency of experiment and the suggestion of future research.
