英語閱讀作為英語語言學習中最基本的技能之一,不僅對學生綜合語言運用能力的提高有著重要作用,在培養(yǎng)學生批判性思維和國際視野方面也至關重要。然而,目前我國英語閱讀教學方面存在諸多不足,英語閱讀教學往往僅停留在語言知識層面,而未關注到深層次的認知因素�；诖�,英語閱讀教學亟待在認知層面進行改善。工作記憶是一個容量有限的認知系統(tǒng),由于同時負責著信息的儲存與加工功能,其在語言理解、學習和推理等復雜的認知活動中起著重要作用。而閱讀理解作為一項復雜的認知任務,往往與信息的儲存和加工緊密相連。因此,閱讀理解的相關研究逐漸的與工作記憶相聯(lián)系。上世紀八十年代,國外學者以工作記憶能力任務為基礎,對工作記憶和一語閱讀理解之間的關系展開了研究并取得了矚目的成就。直到上世紀九十年代,一些外語研究者才開始關注工作記憶在外語閱讀理解中的作用。因此,中國學者們起初也只關注于工作記憶與漢語閱讀理解的關系研究,而對于工作記憶和外語閱讀理解關系的專門研究則相對比較匱乏。總而言之,國內外的研究對工作記憶與外語閱讀理解的關系尚未完全定論。此外,對于工作記憶的儲存和加工兩個成分之間的關系,國內外相關領域目前也未得出一致結論,二者間...
