All Rights Reserved.唐文菊 汲传波/应用语言学汉语学术论文转述动词初探主张,听力材料应主要选取真实的口语㊂(9)S t o w e l l 注意到例(9)的述谓关系与例(7)有一个重要区别㊂不完全积极转述动词有这样9个:引入㊁借鉴㊁主张㊁指出㊁注意(到)㊁关注㊁提出㊁建立㊁提供㊂我们对不完全积极转述动词的评价态度表现逐一进行分析后得出下表㊂表5 不完全积极转述动词评价态度表现分类指出提出建立引入注意(到)提供主张借鉴关注积极40335322211消极/中性251000000合计42386322211从表5可以看出提出㊁指出㊁建立 大部分用于表达积极评价态度,少量用于评价消极态度;而 引入㊁注意㊁主张㊁借鉴 等在语料库中语料较少㊂因此我们在C C L 学术论文语料库中进一步观察发现 引入㊁注意㊁主张等表现与 指出㊁提出 类似,大部分用于积极评价,少量用于消极/中性评价㊂2.中性转述动词㊂中性转述动词不明确传递作者对被引观点的态度,或看不出明显的态度倾向㊂中性转述动词所占比例最高(70.6%),大部分为描述研究过程的研究转述动词㊂比如 表明㊁认为㊁提到㊁考察㊁讨论 等㊂虽然中性转述动词表面上看不出明显的作者态度,但不同转述动词也隐含着作者不同的视角与侧重点㊂譬如下面的例子㊂(10)王新文(1996)认为,除了口语体语料以外,听书面语也是必要的;而且,从中级阶段开始,应该从非真实语料向真实语料逐步过渡㊂(11)R o c c a (2007)和R o h d e (1996)研究表明英语学习者将状态动词过度使用于进行体标记㊂(12)S h a r m a (2012)考察了尼泊尔大学生们在F a c e b o o k 上的语言使用,探讨社交媒体如何影响年轻人的语言使用㊂(13)孙月红等(2019)运用学校就业指导中心提供的数据,分析了广西民族大学近5年139名毕业生的择业情况㊂(14)其中,Y u a n (1998)调查了母语为英语和日语的学习者如何理解汉语 自己 ,讨论了母语迁移及其他因素的影响㊂对语料进一步深入分析发现, 认为 除了具有中性转述动词的特征,表达中性观点,不传递作者对引述内容的支持或反对外,作者在使用 认为 引入转述内容时,还常隐含该观点是被转述者的个人见解,观点正确与否,作者不明确表明态度㊂作者在论述中可能支持,也可能反对㊂ 表明 则常常与 研究/结果/数据 搭配,而不能直接与被转述人搭配,如例(11)㊂从这个角度来看, 表明 与 认为 二者均是中性转述动词, 表明 客观程度高于 认为 ㊂其他还有大量研究性转述动词描述研究过程,后面常常与 了1 连用,这些动词客观程度更高㊂可见,中性转述动词内部也存在更细微的差别㊂3.消极转述动词㊂消极转述动词体现了作者对被引信息的否定态度,无论在英语还是汉语中,均是使用频率极低的一类㊂在英语中,常见的消极转述动词有c h a l l e n g e ,a t -t a c k ,q u e s t i o n ,r e j e c t 等㊂汉语中典型的消极转述动词包括 忽视㊁忽略㊁质疑㊁反对㊁反驳㊁驳回㊁怀疑㊁争论㊁偏离㊁拒绝 等㊂(15)K e m ps o n 这样说,可能是忽视了话语指示(d i s c o u r s e -d e i c t i c )和社会指示(s o -c i a l l y-d e i c t i c )两大规约含义范畴㊂(C C L 语言学论文语料库)(16)周国正先生(1993)反对以 小句次序 作为语法手段,认为应该是 篇章法则 才42 Copyright ©博看网. All Rights Reserved.唐文菊汲传波/应用语言学汉语学术论文转述动词初探是㊂(C C L语言学论文语料库)消极转述动词无论在学术英语中还是学术汉语中使用频率都极低㊂原因在于学术话语社团是一个学术共同体,学术作者之间的关系更多的是合作与促进关系㊂过度使用消极转述动词体现了对社团成员的质疑与不信任,进而破坏建立起的合作关系,不利于学科的共同发展㊂此外,消极转述动词,主观性较强,而学术写作追求科学性与客观性,因而使用较少㊂(三)二语学习者与母语者在转述上的区别我们搜集到30万字汉语国际教育硕士留学生一手毕业论文作为二语学习者语料库,与应用语言学学术期刊语料库进行对比㊂同样的方法,提取转述语料作为我们的研究对象㊂30万字语料库中共提取转述部分语料264条,其中完整转述语料228条,非完整转述36条㊂观察二语学习者转述动词的使用情况后发现,与母语者相比,二语学习者在转述动词使用上具有以下特点㊂第一,二语学习者转述动词使用种类比母语者低,二语者集中使用14个转述动词(括号中为使用频次):提出(37)㊁认为(16)㊁指出(16)㊁强调(2)㊁主张(3)㊁分为(12)㊁比较(5)㊁考察(13)㊁总结(8)㊁发现(22)㊁调查(7)㊁分析(36)㊁研究(13)㊁归纳(3)㊂从评价意义来看,绝大部分为中性转述动词,积极转述动词仅 强调 一个㊂从符号意义上来看,研究转述动词占50%,心理转述动词占35.7%,语篇转述动词使用最少,仅占14.3%㊂这一结果与母语者对比可发现,留学生几乎不使用能够明确表明自己评价态度的转述动词,积极转述动词仅 强调 2例,且大量使用研究转述动词,描述前人研究过程与结果㊂心理与语篇转述动词使用频率大大低于研究转述动词,这表明留学生在转述他人研究成果时,多客观描述前人研究内容,避开对前人研究成果的评价㊂但在撰写学术论文时,我们需要对前人研究作出评价,尤其是指出前人研究不足,证明自己的研究价值,以建立自己的研究空间㊂在分析语料时,我们也发现留学生学术写作时,仅是简单罗列前人研究成果,较少作出自己的评价㊂第二,转述形式上,完整转述占绝大多数,非完整转述比例极低㊂前面提到母语者完整转述占40.4%,非完整转述占59.6%㊂而留学生语料库中非完整转述仅占15.8%,比例远远低于母语者㊂非完整转述强调被引用的信息(r e p o r t e dm e s s a g e),完整转述突出被转述人(r e p o r t e d a u t h o r)㊂根据H y l a n d[2]对学术英语的研究结论,非完整转述使用频率总是高于完整转述㊂这也表明留学生在非完整转述上存在很大的问题,教师在学术写作教学中需要进一步加强㊂第三,二语学习者频繁使用单一转述动词 研究 ㊂例如:(17)李艳(2012)采用第二语言习得中偏误分析方法研究160篇英美留学生H S K高等考试作文,归纳出典型的语体偏误类型㊂(18)姜兴蔚(2015)的‘<中国概况教程>和<中国概况>教材对比研究 以<中国教育>专题课为例“,经过对调查问卷的分析,研究学生对教材的态度㊂母语者语料库中,母语者更倾向使用表示具体研究过程与方法的研究转述动词,因而 考察㊁分析㊁调查 等使用频率较高㊂而留学生高频使用的转述动词 研究 在母语者语料库中仅出现4次,频率极低㊂母语者较少使用的 研究 进行转述的原因在于 研究 语义宽泛,且不包含任何评价意义,不能传递作者对引用信息的态度㊂第四,使用非书面语动词进行转述,例如 说 ㊂52Copyright©博看网. All Rights Reserved.唐文菊 汲传波/应用语言学汉语学术论文转述动词初探(19)B r o o k s 说,如果我们在教授语言的同时不教授文化,那么我们所教授的语言就是一堆毫无意义的符号,或者是学生认为有错误含义的符号㊂ (1968)(20)邢福义说, 严格地讲,语言和文化不是一般的并列关系,而是部分和整体的关系,或者说是点和面的一种特殊并列关系㊂文化包括语言,语言是文化中一种特殊的文化 ㊂(1990)(21)刘鹏昱说,并且人体器官量词 眼 非常特殊,宾语不论是有生或者无生,在动量词前后都可以组合㊂上述3例均出自留学生学术论文中的引用㊂除引用格式不当外,转述动词的选择同样存在问题㊂口语中可以用 说 转述信息来源,而学术语体中 说 不能用来进行转述㊂第五,近义转述动词 指出 与 提出 混用㊂在母语者语料库中,我们发现 指出 与 提出 都属高频转述动词,虽然二者都属于积极转述动词,但在意义和评价态度上仍存在细微区别㊂我们对母语者语料库中的所有 指出 与 提出 的转述语料进行分析发现, 提出 既可转述他人研究,也可用来描写自己的研究,如 本文提出 ㊂而 指出 则只能用来转述他人研究,不用于描述自己研究㊂二者具体差别见表6㊂表6 指出 与 提出 的差别他人的研究自己的研究未明确指明的研究总提出45.6%(36)22.8%(18)31.6%(25)79(100%)指出87.1%(61)0(0)12.9%(9)70(100%) 观察表6可发现,指出 评价意义较强,用于指自己的研究,如 本研究指出 本文指出 ,语气过强,不适合用于描述自己的研究㊂相比之下, 提出 语气缓和,态度中立,因而更常用来表达自己的研究㊂另一个区别为, 指出 表明了作者对被转述内容的一种肯定和赞同,而 提出 后常常会接着给出作者自己的评价㊂笔者在C C L 语料库166篇语言学论文构成的学术语体中,共找到309条含有 提出 的语料,其中属于转述语料共180条,而表达消极意义语料共33条,占18%㊂常见搭配为 提出异议/不同看法/相反的建议 等㊂可见 提出用来进行转述后,同时会对转述内容进行评价,且存在一定数量的负面消极评价㊂这一现象并不是汉语独有的,英语转述动词c l a i m 在转述他人观点时,也暗含了作者 不同意 或者 至少内容不是真实 ,仅是自己个人见解的态度,强调作者和引用信息之间存在的差别㊂英语已有研究[6][13]证实二语学习者在使用c l a i m+t h a t 时大部分(94.8%)用来表达积极和中性㊂这一偏误在汉语学术写作中同样表现突出㊂笔者对一位韩国留学生写的硕士毕业论文检索发现,留学生对 指出 和 提出 的使用随意性较大㊂例如:(22)彭昌柳(2007)从组成内容㊁表现形式及语境依赖三个方面对口语和书面语进行了考察,发现了口语与书面语在上述的三个方面都存在着明显的差异,提出我们在社会生活中要正确认识和运用这两种语言形式㊂(韩国留学生硕士毕业论文)(23)黎云汉(1990)提出,语体又称 文体 ,但不是指 文章体裁 ,而是指适应不同交际目的㊁交际内容㊁交际对象㊁交际场合和交际方式需要,运用全民语言所形成的言语体式㊂(韩国留学生硕士毕业论文)在上述例句中,作者同意被转述人的观点,表达赞成和积极态度,使用 指出 或者认为 会比 提出 更合适㊂四㊁动因分析(一)评价理论62 Copyright ©博看网.

3. ReportingVerbs exercises
Using Reporting VerbsWhen referring to another author’s work within your own (i.e.: summaries, quotes, paraphrases), reporting verbs can be very useful. They also help writers abstain from abusing verbs such as “say” and “tell.” It is important, however, to know the meaning of the verb you choose to use. While a lot of reporting verbs can be used neutrally, others convey strong meaning and reflect the writer’s judgment of his/her sources. Consult a dictionary if needed in order to know exactly what they mean. Consider the examples below: • Fullerton (1993) observes that the procedure is harmful to animals.• However, Smith (2007) ignores the effect of noise pollution on infants and toddlers.• Souza (2002) states that many consumers have sued tobacco companies for health-related damages caused by cigarettes.The following table will assist you in understanding the meaning (s) associated with each of the verbs below:(Adapted from: Reporting verbs handout.

对比分析发现,中国作者和英语本族语作者在零转述动词的使用上呈现出较大差异性;同时都大大低于社会学、哲学、应用语言学;转述动词总次数及高频转述动词,中国作者、英语本族语作者无明显差异,但也都大大低于社会学、哲学、应用语言学;第一大类转述动词,与英语本族语作者相比较,中国作者更多地使用表示肯定态度的转述动词,而在使用表示不接受态度的转述动词时与英语本族语作者没有差异。
第二大类转述动词,英语本族语作者更多通过表达被引作者的态度、观点和评价来表明作者自己的立场;同时,文学类学术论文较多使用表示明确肯定和批判态度的转述动词,而较少使用表示中立和谨慎态度的转述动词。

1 国内外研究综述语言转述现象一直以来受到众多学者的关注。
国外学者从传统语法、文体学、功能语言学等角度对语言转述现象进行了研究。
传统语法重点从直接引语、间接引语的转换关系上关注对他人话语的转述策略[3]。
在文体学领域,Leech和Short 把对言语和思想的表征区分成五类:直接引语、间接引语、自由直接引语、自由间接引语和人物话语的叙事性报道,这种分类方法扩大了语言转述研究的范围[4]。
功能语法学家Thompson则关注转述动词的人际意义,指出转述者对转述内容的态度主要体现在转述动词上[5]。
