ABSTRCT

In the last few decades, in China, there appeared a nation-wide rush, which caused the traditional “teacher-centered” class shift to a “student-centered” one. Thus, many researche s began to focus on individual learners’ factors, among which learning motivation and learning strategies are the most important. And they attracted researchers’ much attention. Therefore, based on the related theories and through questionnaire investigation researches of the English major juniors, this paper aims at exploring the correlation between the two. So as to improve English teaching and learning.

This paper contains five parts. Opening with a general introduction, this part provides background, the present study situation, and the purpose of the study. In part two, literature review is consists of definition, classification and other main theories. Part three is the methodology. Through investigating part of the English major juniors of North West Normal University, the data were collected and processed through SPSS 17.0. After analysis and discussion in part four, several aspects of findings are offered by the present study: 1) English major juniors have a extremely strong English learning motivation. Among which integrative motivation plays a leading. 2) English major juniors are likely to employ different kinds of learning strategies for English learning. And affective strategies are most frequently employed. 3) There is a significantly positive correlation between English learning motivation and strategies. Besides, students who are highly motivated employ learning strategies much more frequently.

In conclusion, knowing about the relationship between English learning motivation and English learning strategies, not only students can have a clear understanding of their own learning motivation and learning strategies, but also teachers can improve their teaching methods and strategies in order to inspire the students’ motivation. In this way, English teaching will get better results.

Part One Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

China, as a country with the largest English learning population, has experienced the “English rush” since she opened her door to the world, especially after China entered the WTO. And a transformation in English teaching and learning happened in the late 1970s and in the early 1980s. At that period, Grammar-Translation Method dominated the English class. In late 1980s, a reform was once again conducted, the class had been changed from the “teacher-centered” situation to “student-centered” situation. That is to say, the focus had been shifted to individual learners. People gradually recognized that English was not taught by group, but learned by individuals.

There are various individual factors which can influence L2 learning, such motivation, age, personality, aptitude, learning strategies, and so on. Because of these factors, some L2 learners can learn quickly and successfully, while others can not.

It is universally believed that motivation correlates highly with second or foreign language learning, and that a successful language learner is usually highly motivated (Vandergrift, 2005); and according to Corder (1973), “Given motivation, any one can learn a language.” The academic papers studying L2 leaming discovered that different students had different motivations for leaming. Generally speaking, their different motivations can influence them in a very powerful way, either in the choice of learning strategies, or the formation of their leaming styles.

Researchers has paid attention to learning strategies since 1960s. Learning strategies became another important individual factor affecting L2 learning process. Some successful L2 learners may employ different learning strategies more frequently and more efficiently, therefore, the phenomenon is that some people were good at language while others mat be less proficient in L2. It is believed that learning strategies can improve the learning rate and learning outcomes of different learners. In addition, it is common that suitable language learning strategies can make learners be more skilled and greater confidence. (Oxford 2008, 1)

Another important point is that motivation can have influence on choosing the language learning strategies. For example, people learning English merely for passing the examinations or for the fulfillment of graduate request will use different learning strategies from those who learning English for interpersonal communication or learning the target language’culture.

1.2 Significance of the Study

The study would be significant on both theory and practice

On one hand, it can enrich the researches on English and learning , for it’s about the relationship between ELM and ELS. On the other hand, it has practical value, knowing the relationship between ELM and ELS can help teachers to choose proper method to stimulate students’motivation and enhance their strategy use. In addition, it can help students to have a clear understanding of their own ELM and ELS, and to develop a set of their own ELS. All of these can be beneficial to English teaching and learning.

1.3 Purpose of the Study

In recent years, many researches on L2 learning motivation and L2 learning strategies have been conducted by many scholars in China. But minority explore the deep relationship between the two through empirical method. Therefore, for improving English teaching and learning, the deep relationship between ELM and ELS is valuable to be studied and discussed. So in the thesis, many aspects are researched. For instance, what kinds of ELM do English majors have? What types of ELM do they use when they learn English? And what’s the relationship between ELM and ELM? Can ELM predict ELS? To find out answers for these questions and help English majors know their own ELM and what kind of ELS suit them so as to improve English teaching and learning are the specific and final purpose of the thesis

1.4 Overview of the Paper

The thesis mainly consists of five parts

The first part opens with a general introduction. First, it presents the background and the present study situation. Second, it points out the purpose of the study which includes the specific research questions. Third, it shows the significance. Finally, it gives the layout of the thesis The second part consists of three sections. Section one first puts forward the definition of the ELM. Then it shows the types of ELM. Similarly, section two reviews ELS from the aspects of definition,classification and factors affecting choice of ELS. Section three reviews the former researches on the relationship between ELM and ELS.

The third part is the question design which consists of four aspects: research questions,

subjects, instruments and the method of data analyses

The fourth part presents the results of the research and discusses them. It begins with the analysis of ELM questionnaire and ELS questionnaire. Then it makes correlation analysis between ELM and ELS

The fifth part is a conclusion of the whole theory. It shows the major findings, displays the implications from the study,and limitations recommendations for further researches

Part Two Literature Review

2.1 Research on English Learning Motivation

2.1.1 Definition of ELM

Motivation is generally referred to an inner impulse, drive, desire, or emotion that gets people going, keeps people moving , and helps people get job done.It is a kind of internal incentive or a kind of desire that makes people take an action. “Motivation has been widely accepted by both teachers and researchers as one of the key factors that influence the rate and success of second /foreign language leaming.”(Dornyei,1998,P.117). However, since mastering a L2 is not only an educational issue, but it is also a deeply social event, motivation is a complex,multi-faceted construct (Gardner,1985;Williams & Burden, 2000). So there has been a considerable diversity of motivation concepts rather than a unique definition.

According to Keller(1983), motivation referred to “the choices people make as to what experience or goals they will approach or avoid and the degree of effort they will exert in the respect ”(Brown,2002:152). This is just a simple definition, which gives readers an initial understanding on the concept of motivation.

Ellis (1999:86) regarded motivation as “effort which learners put into l earning L2 as a result of their need or desire to learn it.” Later,he(2000:75) pointed out that attitudes and effective states influence the degree of effort that learners make to learn a L2,and they should also be involved in motivation.

Williams also gave a definition of motivation “motivation may be constructed as a state of cognitive and emotional arousal , which leads to a conscious decision to act,and which gave rise to

a period of sustained intellectual and physical effort in order to attain a previously set goal”.(2000:120). His theory was mainly put forward from a cognitive point of view.

The most influential motivation theory in the L2 field has been Proposed by Robert Gardner and Lambert and their associates in Canada (Gardner & Lambert,1972:Gardner,1985:1988).

In Robert Gardner’view, “motivation” referred to “the combination of effort plus desire to achieve the goal of leaming the language plus favorable attitudes towards leaming the language. Motivation was mainly a kind of central mental “engine” or “energy-center” that inspires effort, want/will and task-enjoyment.(Dornyei,2005:48).

In general all of these researchers are trying to definite motivation from different theoretical aspects and research research reports, there are common thing among them, such as effort, desire, to approach a goal. Ellis and Gardner added attitudes towards learning the language. This thesis mainly presents the definition of motivation from Dornyei, Keller, Ellis ,Williams,Brown,Gardner and Lambert, whose theories also play an important role in L2 leaning in China.

2.1.2 Classification of ELM

So far, because there is no agreement has been achieved on defining motivation in L2 learning, so different types of motivation have emerged according to different dividing criteria. This part mainly presents the previous essential classification of motivation in L2 learning.

2.1.2.1 Integrative and Instrumental Motivation

It is well-recognized that Gardner and Lambert(1972) had done most influential studies of motivation in L2 learning. A key issue in Gardner.s (1985) motivation theory is the relationship between motivation and orientation (Dornyei,2005). Gardner (1972) divided SLL orientation into two categories: integrative and instrumental orientations.

The integrati ve motivation was defined by Gardner and Lambert (1985) as a “motivation to learn a second language because of positive feelings towards the community that speaks that language”. It refers to a positive attitude towards the L2 group, the desires to interac t with L2 community and to learn about their culture. While instrumental motivation refers to quire a language for some practical goals, such as passing the examination, getting scholarships, finding a

good job in the future, or having more chances to be promoted, and so on.

Actually, these two types of motivation are not totally or necessarily mutually exclusive. In most cases, these two type were appeared as a mixture. According to the early Studies of Lambert (1972) and Spolsky (1969) , they found that students with integrative motivation can usually get highs scores in test. Therefore, it can be concluded that integrative motivation is necessary for successful L2 learner. However, soon, some disagreements appeared, for example, in the 1990s , Yasmeen Lukmani and Braj Kaehru proved that English can also be successfully acquired by having instrumental motivation alone.(Brown.2002).

2.1.2.2 Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation

There is another distinction of motivation: intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation.

Intrinsic motivation was defined by Edward Deci (1975:23) as follows: : “intrinsically motivated activities were ones for which there was no apparent reward except the activity itself. People seemed to engage in the activities for their own sake and not because they lead to an extrinsic reward... Intrinsically motivated behaviors were aimed at bringing about certain internally rewarding consequences, namely, feelings of competence and self-determination.” (Brown,2002:155) Csikszentmihalyi and Nakamura (1989) also provided a clear definition: “when the experience of doing something generated interest and enjoyment, and the reason for performing the activities lied within the activity itself, then the motivation was likely to be intrinsic.”

Intrinsic motivation refers that people did something because doing the activity itself is enjoyable. It is guided by an interest in the task itself in which one is engaged. Whereas extrinsic motivation refers that people did activity only for gain something else which were beyond the activity itself. It is guided by external stimuli, such as parental approval, offer a reward, threat of punishment, a good grade or even some certain types of positive feedback. 2,1,2,2 The Relationship between the Two Motivational Dichotomies.

2.1.2.3 The Relationship between the two Motivational dichotomies.

The two kinds of motivation types are considered matched in some extend. (Chambers,1999) Learners with integrative motivation learn the target language because they want to be one of their

culture, which can also be interpreted that they learn the language with intrinsic motivation. Similarly, learners with instrumental motivation can also be said that they learn the language with extrinsic motivation because of its emphasis on rewards for achievement. Brown(2000) gives the following matrix of the relationship between the two motivational dichotomies.

Table 2,1 Motivational dichotomies

2.2 Research on English Learning strategies

2.2.1 Definition of ELS

People discuss ELS from the different perspective, since they have not gained a common understanding of learning strategy (Wang 2001) . Some people regard learning strategy as “steps” and “skill” (Rubin 1975: Oxford 1992/1993). Others (Stern 1983) maintains that learning strategy are the general features and common trend, which belong to cognitive psychology. And he discusses the differences between “strategy” and “technique”. Others do have such differences Intrinsic Extrinsic

Integrative L2 learner wishes to integrate with the culture

(e.g..for immigration or marriage) Someone else wishes the L2 learner to

know the L2 for integrative reasons (e.g.. Japanese parents send kids to

Japanese-language school)

Instrumental L2 learner withes to achieve goal by utilizing L2(e.g.. For a career) External power wants L2 learner to

learn L2(e.g,, corporation sends

Japanese businessman to USA for

language training )

(Weinstein & Mayer 1986: Chamot 1990: Wen 1996).

2.2.2 Classification of ELS

Wang-Fillmore (1976) puts forward a classification of LLS, which mainly consists of 3 kinds of social strategies and other 5 cognitive strategies.

Social strategies Cognitive strategies

Join a group and act as if you understand what is going on

Give the impression, with a few well-chosen words, that you speak the language

Count on your friends for help Assume what people are saying is relevant to the situation at hand

Get some expression you understand, and start talking

Look for recurring parts in the formulas you know Make the most of what you’ve got

Table 2,2 Classification od LLS in L2 acquisition by Wang-Fillmore (1976)

Naiman et al. (1978) and Rubin (1981) also proposed their own specific classification scheme.

Naiman’s scheme contains five broad catego ries and a number of secondary categories, which provides a wider range and greater levels than the strategies put forward by Wang-Fillmore. The details are as follows.

Primary strategies classification Representatives secondary strategies

Active task approach Respond positively to learning opportunity or seek

and exploit learning environment

Add related language learning activities to regular

classroom program practice

Realization of language as a system Analyze individual program

Make L1/L2 comparison

Analyze target language to make inference

Mack use of the fact that language is a system

Realization of language as means of communication Emphasize fluency over accuracy

Seek communicative situations with L2 speakers

Management of affective demands Find sericultural meanings

Cope with affective demands in learning Monitoring L2 performance Constantly revise L2 system by testing inference

and by asking L2 native speakers for feedback

Table 2,3 Classification od LLS in L2 acquisition by Naiman et al.(1978)

Rubin divided learning strategies into 2 primary groupings and several subgroups (See Table 2,4)

Primary strategies classification Representative secondary strategies

Strategies the directly affect learning Classification/verification

Monitoring

Memorization

Guessing/inductive inference

Deductive reasoning

practice

Process that contribute indirectly to learning Create opportunities for practice

Production trick

Table 2,4 classification of LLS in L2 acquisition by Rubin (1981)

recently, there are also some other descriptive studies on the classification of LLS. The most

two comprehensive of LLS were produced by O’Malley and Chamot (1990) and Oxford (1990).

O’Malley and Chamot (1990) divided learning strategies into three types: cognit ive strategies, meta-cognitive strategies, and social/affective strategies.

In their opinion, meta-cognitive strategies ”are higher order executive skills that may entail planning for, monitoring for evaluating the success of a learning activity “ (O.Mal ley and Chamot, 1990:44). They are some detailed strategies, such as advanced organizers, advanced preparation, delayed production, directed attention, self-monitoring, self-evaluation, and self-management. (Qin,2008:224)

Cognitive strategies are skills th at can “operate directly on incoming information manipulating it in ways that enhance leaming” (O.Malley and Chamot, 1990:44) In terms of function, they are more operative and cognitive-processing, such as repetition, grouping, resourcing, recombination, key word, contextualization, translation, transfer, directed physical response and so on (Qin, 2008: 224)

Social /affective strategies are skills that “involves either interaction with another person or ideational control over affect”. Such as self-talk, question for clarification and cooperation which are all belong to social/affective strategies.(Qin, 2008;224)

Based on the early theoretical works, Oxford produced another more comprehensive classifications by using an inductive approaches.

Oxford (1990) divided LLS into two types: direct strategies and indirect strategies. To make them more specific, direct strategies directly involved the language being learned. And it can be further divided into memory strategies, cognitive strategies and compensation strategies. On the contrary, in many cases, indirect strategies supported or managed the target language learning, although they were not directly in the target language. Indirect strategies involve affective strategies,meta一cognitive strategies and social strategies. We can see they are involved in O’Malley and Chamot’classification.

The following will clearly explain the major classification which consists of six strategy groups and a total of 19 strategy sets (Oxford, 1990)

英语学术论文写作实践作业 作者 系(院)外国语学院 专业英语 年级2xxx级 学号 写作意向 旅游的快速发展以及随着中国融入全球化经济,中国与世界各国的交流不断增多,例如,加入WTO、2008年北京成功举办奥运会及上海世博会等,这些显示了中国在国际舞台上扮演越来越重要的角色。近些年来,越来越多的国家希望了解中国,许多外国朋友纷至沓来。特别是中国旅游风景名胜区,每年接待的外国游客越来越多。为了方便外国友人,我国旅游景区就必须提供英语景点导游词。旅游景点导游词主要指的是旅游景区公开和面对旅游者的告示、指示、提示、警示、标示等文字及图形信息,涉及到食、宿、行、游、娱、购等日常生活的方方面面。在旅游景区内,游客最为集中,与旅游宣传册、地图、宣传单等相比,景点导游词更加引人注目集中,更加直截了当地发挥其信息指示功能。由于旅游景点导游词需要及时满足的是社会公众和旅游者的直接社会、行为和心理需求,也反映了生活在这个社会群体的整体文化素质、道德修养和精神面貌,是一个国家对外交流水平和人文环境的具体体现。因此其翻译质量将会响到游客的旅游线路、兴致、感受及印象,进而间接影响我国旅游业的发展。因此,对旅游景点导游词的特点、翻译策略进行探讨具有一定的现实意义。 资料的初步整理 对于英语景点导游词,许多中外学者都做出自己的研究,提出自己的观点。以下是中外学术界的众多研究和观点。 蔡媛媛(2007)《英语景点导游词的语言特点》一文中指出,英语景点导游词具有相应的功能特点。(1)指示性。指示性景点导游词主要是提供给公众一些信息服务,没有任何限制或强制在内,同时也不强制要求公众采取任何行动,其功能只是指示服务内容。因此,指示性景点导游词也被称为指导性或引导性景点导游词。这也是景点导游词最基本、最主要的功能。例如:One Way (单行线)、Tickets (售票处)、Department Store (百货商场)。(2)提示性。提示性景点导游词提示性景点导游词提醒公众注意某些事情,同时提示性景点导游词也并不针对特殊或个别人群。这类景点导游词应用非常广泛,通过提示性景点导游词可以了解什么该做什么不该做,但是这种提示性景点导游词并不具有强制性,公众可根据实际情况来选择执行或不执行。例如:Caution!Radiation(当心射线)、Watch Your Hand(当心夹手)、Don’t Touch(请勿手扶)。(3)限制性。限制性景点导游词对有关公众提出限制或约束的要求,希望有关公众为了大众的利益遵守一定的规则。多数情况下限制性景点导游词语气较为直接,一目了然,但不会让人感到强硬、粗暴或无理。例如:Athletes Only (运动员专用通道)、Large Vehicles Keep Right (大型车靠右)。(4)强制性。强制性景点导游词对有关公众有较大约束力,要求有关公众必须或不得采取任何行动或严格遵守规则。这类景点导游词的语言直接、强制,没有任何商量的余地。例如:No Parking (禁止停车)。 上面是学者对景点导游词特点的研究,对于翻译,颜莉(2008)《英语景点导游词的文体特点及汉英翻译》一文中说到,在进行景点导游词的汉英翻译前,应先了解英语景点导游词的文体特点,这样才能更加准确地将汉语景点导游词译为地道的英语表达方式。代博君(2010)在《景点导游词的语言特征及翻译策略》一文中指出,景点导游词的翻译应属于实用翻译,也称语用翻译。法国翻译理论家Jean Delisle 将语用翻译界定为:运用语用学知识对语用文

格式:全部字母大写;每个词的首字母大写,但3个或4个字母以下的冠词、连词、介词全部小写;题名第一个词的首字母大写,其余均小写。 (4)中英文题名的一致性。同一篇论文,其英文题名与中文题名内容上应一致,但不等于说词语要一一对应。在许多情况下,个别非实质性的词可以省略或变动。 总之,题名的用词十分重要,它直接关系到读者对文章的取舍态度,务必字字斟酌。 二、论文摘要 1.摘要的定义 摘要又称概要、内容提要。摘要是论文主体的高度浓缩,它应该能提炼论文的主要观点,简明地描述论文的内容和范围,简短地进行概括和总结。摘要能让读者尽快了解论文的主要内容,以补充题名的不足,并为科技情报文献检索数据库的

学术论文写作英语总结

学术论文写作课程总结 科研的进步在于科研工作之间交流,讨论,阅读。在第一节课,老师就告诉我们,面对全球众多的科研工作者来说,本领域学者之间的交流多以文字的形式进行。英语作为世界各国人们交流的一种流通语言,让那些非英语为母语和以英语为母语国家的科研人员不会对我们投稿的英语学术论文所要表达的内容产生歧义,才能达到学术交流与进步的目的。 在本次的英语学术论文写作课程学习中,我们组经历了第一次的细致分工,到以后的分工与合作相结合的进步。由于我的研究方向为InSAR监测矿区,在本次论文写作中主要负责我们‘空天地一体化矿区环境灾害监测’中D-InSAR监测矿区部分的实验以及数据分析的工作。同时,在小组汇报的过程中共同进行了第一部分Introduction 部分的汇报,完成了Authors and Keywords部分PPT的制作与汇报工作。从选择汇报PPT模板、搜集资料、总结资料,再到最后制作修改完成终稿,最后是台下的汇报演练,每个步骤的实践经历都给了我弥足珍贵的经验。 回首这学期本门课程的学习,我发现自己在慢慢地积累中有了很多的收获。首先,作为一个学制只有2年的工程硕士,在本学期已经完成了自己学位论文的开题工作,在下一个学期就要着手于自己学位论文的撰写工作。无论是发表期刊论文,还是撰写自己的学位论文,插入、添加参考文献都曾经是写作的一大难题。本次课程老师给我们介绍了几款文献管理器(Noteexpress,Endnote)。通过对文献管理器软件的学习与使用,让我熟悉了文献管理器,在本学期的其他专业课程中的论文写作中已经可以熟练使用,极大的方便了论文写作。其次,语料库的检索分析,制定自己论文写作方向,都对我的论文写作有着十分重要的作用。 接着就是自己关于学术论文写作方面的收获。从第一节课开始,老师给我们写学术论文的正确态度,给初入学术写作的我论文写作方面奠定了很好的基础。原来对英语论文的态度就是从中文的论文通过翻译软件直接进行翻译。在本次课程中,我们在老师的带领下,通过小组合作的形式,对introduction,methodology,results,conclusion等几个论文的主体部分,以及title,authors,abstract,keywords进行了细致的学习,理解了每个部分在论文中所起到的作用,以及写作这些部分的英文论文的时候所需要注意的时态语法主语人称等方面的问题。也让我明白,英语学术论文的写作,不应该是简单的中译英,而更重要的是自己的学术内容与思想能够清晰而又高效的传达出来,进而实现学术交流与提高的作用。

英文学术报告怎么写

英文学术报告怎么写? 学术报告尤其是英文学术报告的写作对于中国学生来说是一个薄弱环节,反之,国外的教育对此则相当重视。去国外学习,各种课程都可能要求你写报告,特别是商业、科学或技术类学科。依据内容及导师要求的不同,报告的形式可能有所差别,但是写作的过程却是相似的。美联英语学习网向您介绍英文学术报告怎么写? 学术报告(academic report or paper)的写作包括阅读,思考,针对一个学术课题进行案例分析及写作,总体来说就是为了让你的读者以新的眼光来看待该课题。大学的学术报告与你之前所做过的其他类型的报告(如高中时期为完成老师布置的作业而写的报告)的不同之处在于,它既陈述了研究事实,又提出了你自己的推论。 写作过程指导: 1. 研究及总结(Research and Summarize) 研究所选的课题,找出针对课题的“who(谁),what(什么),when(何时),why(为什么)及how(如何)”的答案。总结收集到的信息,清楚自己所掌握的,评估自己所不知道的,以便专注于进一步的研究方向。列出一个参考书目来引用并避免抄袭。 阅读原始文献及补充信息并考虑关于课题的历史或流行观点。思考每篇文章的要点同时注意它们的共性。缩小你的课题范围这样你就可以准备写一篇充满智慧的报告了。 2.定义结构(Define the Structure) 定义报告的结构并将你的论点串联成一个连贯的推理。依据报告的主题制定一个大纲。以这种方式组织你的观点可以帮助你看到各个观点之间的关系。

大纲中的所标题结构要统一。例如如果你的第一个标题以一个行为动词(action verb)开头,那么所有其他标题都应该以行为动词开头。副标题(Sub-heading)应该包含支撑大标题的细节。重组你的大纲直到它能清晰的反映一个思想逻辑流程。 3. 写正文(Write your paper) 学术报告通常包含五个部分:标题页,引言(包含论文主题),背景信息,关于论点及结论的细节,陈述支持或反对某个特点观点的争论。 用辅助段落来讲述一个故事,提供一个观察的视角,描述一个过程,定义意义,对思想进行分类,比较和对比观点,类推或解释为什么这种现象会发生。提供证据,陈述假设并适当添加个人观点使论文连贯、清晰易懂。确保每段都有足够的结束语及过渡句。在学术报告中尽量减少使用个人代词如“我”。 4. 校对(Proofread) 打印并大声朗读报告来检查错误。保证报告没有语法及格式错误。 至此一篇英文学术报告就完成了,当然在做报告之前还要加强学术英语的学习,背诵一些相关专业的词汇和术语,并尽量多阅读一些英文的专业文献,做好基本功。
