语义场理论在初中英语词汇中的应用_英语论文

The Application of Semantic Field Theory to English Vocabulary Teaching in Junior Middle School

摘要

本文研究语义场理论在初中英语词汇教学中的运用。本文首先探讨了本课题研究的背景，意义与目的,而后论述了词汇的重要性。然后介绍了语义场方面的相关内容，即语义场强调词义之间的联系，这些联系能够让不同的词存在在一个相同的语义场中。语义场又可以分为上下义，同义，反义等语义场。本论文主要讨论三个问题，即：(1)教师们如何运用语义场理论来构建初中英语词汇教学模型?(2)语义场理论应用于初中英语词汇教学对于提高初中生英语词汇学习效果如何?(3)学生在自主学习英语词汇的过程中通过构建语义场的方式进行英语词汇学习的情况如何?

Abstract

English vocabulary learning plays a significant role in English learning. Semantic field theory ,as one of the important theories in linguistic ,emphasizes the relationship among words in meaning and this relationship enables different vocabularies to be connected in the semantic fields which can be classified into different types such as hyponymy ,synonymy and meronomy. In view of the above situation, this thesis suggests semantic field theory should be applied to English vocabulary teaching in junior middle school.And the following three questions are mainly discussed:(1) How do teachers build a model of English vocabulary teaching in junior middle school based on semantic field theory? (2)How does semantic field theory affect the efficiency of students’ leaning when the semantic field theory is applied to English vocabulary teaching in junior middle school? and(3) How do students learn English vocabulary themselves by building the semantic field?
