Efficient Foreign Language Learning Requires Close Combination Between Language Production and Comprehension:Evidence from Structural Priming in the Reading-Speaking Continuation Task
This article reports on an empirical study in which junior English majors were asked to read an English story with the ending erased and continue the story orally based on the plot.The study aimed to analyze the structural priming phenomenon in the continuation recordings using phrasal verbs in the reading material as the target structure.The results show that not only does structural priming exist in L2 reading-speaking continuation,but the priming effect is particularly significant.Based on the characteristics of reading-speaking continuation,the article deeply analyzes and discusses the factors that trigger structural priming and its intensity,proposes the concepts of stock structural priming and incremental structural priming in order to explain the internal driving force of continuation expanding foreign language ability,opening up a broader space for in-depth research on the subject,and providing new evidence for the efficient promotion of foreign language learning by closely combining comprehension and production.
