摘　　要：语块是语言使用者在语言使用或学习过程中单词化了的若干单词的组合，它们不经由语法分析，作为独立的整体存在。本研究通过一项计算机阅读任务，实时追踪在二语阅读过程中，学习者是否能识别出文本中所包含的陌生语块。结果显示，二语学习者不善于识别出文本中的陌生语块，他们不倾向于把语块作为不可分割的整体进行处理，而是用语法规则对其进行解构分析；此外，语块类别和学习者二语水平对语块识别均有影响。Formulaic sequences are prefabricated lexical units that are stored and retrieved whole from memory at the time of use. By means of a computerized reading task, the present study aims to track EFL learners＇ online recogni- tion of unfamiliar formulaic sequences in reading, i. e. , whether the learners can recognize these sequences as holistie structures. It is found that the learners in general failed to recognize the holistic nature of the target formulaic sequences. They tended to analyze formulaic sequences according to grammatical rules instead of processing them as unanalyzable, unitary lexical entities. Data also revealed that the types of formulaie sequences and the learners＇ L2 proficiency both had a role to play in the recognition of unfamiliar formulaic sequences.
