摘要
本文分析了中国大学生在英语学术论文中所使用的引述句的主语特征。研究采用中国英语专业本科生的毕业论文和美国大学生的毕业论文作为语料。通过语料对比发现,在中国大学生使用的引述句中表现客观性风格、有助于增强论文严谨性和可信度的主语类型使用不足。
The paper presents a study of reporting clauses, particularly the Subject features of these clauses, in the academic papers of Chinese EFL students. A corpus of senior theses by Chinese undergraduates majoring in English and a comparable corpus of senior theses by American students are used for the purpose of the research. The result shows that the Chinese EFL students tend to inadequately use those types of reporting clauses whose Subject features contribute to the stylistic objectivity, academic rigor and persuasiveness of the research articles.
