摘　　要：本研究考察了中国高级英语学习者在学术语篇中使用作者立场标记语的情况,并与英语为母语的专家作者进行了比较。研究发现:中国高级英语学习者和英语专家作者一样,在学术语篇中大量使用立场标记语,但使用频率低于英语专家作者。在学术语篇的导论、方法论、结果/讨论/结论各个章节中,认知型立场标记语、态度型立场标记语和方式型立场标记语的使用均成下降趋势。本文结论认为,与英语母语专家作者相比,中国高级英语学习者在学术语篇中往往倾向于更直接地、直率地表达自己的立场态度。This study examines how the Chinese advanced EFL writers contrast their native English-speaking counterparts in using stance markers in academic research discourse. It is found that Chinese L2 writers tend to use authorial stance markers extensively but less frequently than expert English writers. From a cross-sectional perspective, the frequencies of epistemic, attitudinal and style-of-speaking stance markers used both in the L1 and L2 corpus are on the decline across the Introduction, Methodology and Results/Discussion/Conclusion sections. It is argued that Chinese EFL writers generally tend to offer stronger commitment to statements when compared with expert English writers.
