摘　　要：本研究通过考察高、低两水平组英语学习者的隐喻能力,探究了母语概念迁移能力、隐喻能力和英语水平三者之间的发展关系。结果显示,两组受试者的隐喻能力都比较低,但高水平组显著高于低水平组;高水平阶段,母语概念迁移能力对外语隐喻能力的促进作用减弱,同时隐喻能力对语言水平的影响力下降。外语环境下教、学、考三方对语言形式和技能的关注远远高于对语言概念体系的关注,这是学习者隐喻能力发展滞后于语言水平发展的重要原因。By examining the metaphoric competence of English learners at low and high levels, this paper explores the developmental connections among L1 conceptual transfer competence, metaphoric competence and English proficiency. The findings are ： metaphoric competence strengthens with the increase of English level significantly even though both groups＇ metaphoric competence develops slowly; in the high-level group, the influence of learners＇ L1 conceptual transfer on English metaphoric competence weakens and the influence of their metaphoric competence on English proficiency changes in the same way. These results show that in FL learning environment, the three sections, namely teaching, learning and evaluation, all pay much more attention to language＇ s forms and skills than to its conceptual system, which leads to the result that the advancement of learners＇ meta- phorical competence lags behind the development of their English proficiency.
