基于系统功能语言学的语篇分析模式在翻译研究和教学中的应用

基于系统功能语言学语篇分析模式将语篇看作是语言使用中的一个语义单位,认为语篇是与文化语境密切相连、受具体的情景语境促动、从一整套供选择的功能成分和语言形式中进行选择的结果.这一模式为翻译研究和教学开辟了一个全新的视角,对翻译研究和教学具有重要的理论指导作用:根据这一模式,翻译中的对等应建立在语篇层面上,语篇对等的实现可从语类、语域和语义三个方面进行考察,在翻译中应具体做到语类对应、语域适切和语义对等,具体应从宏观决策和微观选择两个方面入手.     

文化语境与翻译

翻译是一种语言活动,更是一种跨文化的交际活动.正确理解文化语境是翻译的关键.因此,译者应处理好文化、语言、翻译三者之间的关系.翻译要尽可能做到语境化,综合参考文化因素,使译文正确无误并且得体..     

语域因素在翻译中的应用

为了迎合不同的交际需要,语篇往往会出现许多变体,这些变体所形成的范畴被称为语域(register)。它是多种参数,包括语篇语场、方式和基调的综合体现。在翻译的过程中,对语篇语场、方式和基调的认识和把握,是译者决策及操作中的三个重要因素,只有三者相辅相成,才能保证语言信息传译中的适切。

英语议论文语篇衔接与连贯探微

语篇衔接与连贯在写作中具有重要的作用.中国学生在英语议论文写作中普遍缺乏语篇构建意识,缺乏显性与隐性的衔接与连贯机制.国内外学者从不同角度对语篇衔接理论进行的研究表明,语篇衔接除作者运用语法和词汇进行显性衔接外,还存在语义上的隐性连贯.本文基于语篇衔接理论的研究,从语法、词汇衔接和逻辑连贯三个方面对英语议论文的语篇衔接与连贯进行探讨,以期对学生的英语议论文语篇衔接和连贯有所帮助.     

文化语境与词汇内涵意义

通过对文化语境和词汇内涵意义的分析,总结了影响词汇内涵意义形成的主要文化因素,并探讨了词汇内涵意义在英汉两种语言中的表现,以期对英汉翻译中如何确立词汇的内涵意义有所启发。     

A Study on the Translation of Chinese Political Words with Colloquial Characteristics

This paper mainly talks about the translation of Chinese political words with colloquial characteristics into English.It is emphasized that the importance of the awareness of identity and context.It also talks about the significances of the use of colloquial political words from perspectives of identity,context and intercultural communication.Through the comparison and analysis of vaious translation versions,it is concluded that to make translation versions idiomatic and accurate,different translation methods should be used under different political occasions.     

Effects of negation and situational presence on the accessibility of text information.

In 2 experiments, participants read narratives containing a color term that was mentioned either within the scope of an explicit negative or not, and with the described situation being such that the color was either present or not. Accessibility of the color term was measured by means of a probe-recognition task either 500 ms (Experiment 1) or 1,500 ms (Experiment 2) after participants read the sentence mentioning color. After the 500-ms delay, the accessibility of the color term was influenced by the structure of the sentence. After the 1,500-ms delay, the accessibility was influenced by the content of the described situation. These results are consistent with the view that comprehenders construct a linguistic representation of the text as well as a situation model in which only present properties are represented. An alternative account, according to which comprehenders only construct a perceptual simulation of the described situation, is discussed.

Memory for Narrative and Expository Text: Independent Influences of Semantic Associations and Text Organization.

The author examined memory for text in terms of the independent influences of semantic knowledge associations and text organization. Semantic associations were operationalized as the semantic relatedness between individual text concepts and the text as a whole and assessed with latent semantic analysis. The author assessed text organization by simulating comprehension with the construction integration model. Text organization consistently accounted for unique variance in recall. Semantic associations strongly predicted expository recall and predicted narrative recall significantly but to a lesser extent, even when the familiarity of the narrative content was manipulated. Results suggest that prior semantic associations and novel associations in the text structure influence memory independently, and that these influences can be affected by text genre.

Parenting Style of Mexican, Mexican American, and Caucasian-Non-Hispanic Families: Social Context and Cultural Influences.

To begin accounting for cultural and contextual factors related to child rearing in Mexican-descent (MD; Mexican American and Mexican immigrant) families in the United States, the current study examined parenting practices in 2-parent families of Mexican, MD, and Caucasian-non-Hispanic (CNH) parents. Parents in all groups reported using authoritative practices more often than authoritarian strategies. MD parents reported greater use of authoritarian practices than Mexican and CNH parents. Results suggest that previously found cultural variations in parenting between MD parents and CNH parents may be more related to the ecological context of MD families than to an affiliation with Mexican culture. Clinicians should explore the positive qualities of authoritative parenting in MD families along with the potential motivations for using authoritarian strategies.

Expository Text Comprehension in the Primary Grade Classroom.

This study investigates the effectiveness of an instructional program designed to teach 2nd graders how to comprehend compare-contrast expository text. Along with introducing new content (animal classification), the program emphasizes text structure via clue words, a sequence of questions, and a graphic organizer, and via the close analysis of specially constructed exemplar paragraphs. The authors compared the program with (a) more traditional instruction that focused only on the new content and (b) a no instruction control; 128 7- and 8-year-olds participated. Classroom teachers provided the instruction. The program improved students' ability to comprehend compare-contrast texts. Students were able to demonstrate transfer to uninstructed compare-contrast texts though not to text structures other than compare-contrast. Moreover, the text structure instruction did not detract from their ability to learn new content. The results provide evidence, heretofore lacking, that explicit instruction in comprehension is feasible and effective as early as the 2nd grade.

The Cultural Context and the Psychotherapeutic Process: Toward a Culturally Sensitive Psychotherapy.

Cross-cultural psychotherapy has striven to refine its intervention strategies during the last 2 decades. However, many authors have noted that these advances seem disconnected from each other and from traditional psychotherapeutic approaches. This article offers a conceptual framework that groups very diverse psychotherapeutic approaches into 3 broad categories according to some of their basic assumptions. Some cross-cultural psychotherapeutic models are also located within these 3 categories as a means to link different and apparently fragmented cross-cultural models to traditional psychotherapeutic models. It is argued that the proposed conceptual framework allows clinicians to intervene in a more effective manner than if these different psychotherapeutic models remained fragmented and disconnected. The proposed conceptual framework allows clinicians to benefit in a coherent manner from the advantages of different psychotherapeutic recommendations. Finally, the psychotherapeutic usefulness of this model is illustrated through a case presentation. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)
