一類漢語話題構式的語用功能及真實語料教語言選擇的教學設計

Discourse-pragmatic Functions of a Chinese Topic-comment Construction and L2 Teaching Strategies Based on Authentic Media

由於在話語篇章中「可用可不用」同時又具有豐富的話語語用功能，漢語話題評論構式是第二語言習得的一個難點句法格式，初中級學習者往往迴避使用（Jin 1994; Cao et al. 2006）。基於語言學和應用語言學的研究發現，本文討論雙名詞話題評論構式的五種話語語用功能，並介紹一套使用影視真實語料教授初中級學習者如何在真實語境中選用該話題評論構式的教學設計。本研究著力於探索如何利用真實語料使初中級學習者了解某一語言結構在第一語言話語語境中的語用用法，從而使學習者從初級階段就開始學習如何作出適當的語言選擇。

The seemingly optional use in discourse and rich discourse-pragmatic functions make the Mandarin topic-comment construction a challenging structure for L2 learners of Chinese. Beginning and intermediate level learners tend to display a lack of use of it (Jin 1994; Cao et al. 2006). Drawing upon linguistic and applied linguistic findings, this study discusses five discourse-pragmatic functions of the double-nominative topic-comment construction and introduces a pedagogical design using authentic media materials like film clips and TV shows to teach elementary and intermediate level learners when and how to choose this topic-comment construction in specific contexts. The study aims to explore some possibilities and methodologies of providing lower-level L2 learners an opportunity to know how a certain language structure is used in specific contexts in L1 discourse, and in so doing, teach learners how to make informed linguistic choices right from the beginning level.
