摘　　要：本文在理论层面上分析生成语言学与外语教学的关联,并探讨如何能够将其有效地运用到教学实践中。生成语言学的研究对象是人类普遍存在的语言官能(普遍语法或语言天赋),其语言习得观重视学习者自身内在语言系统的发展,以及语言能力的形成和内化。正确理解"语言能力内化",首先要对生成语言学的基础和研究进展有一个明确的认识和恰当的解读,其次也要对语言能力及语言习得本质的界定有深刻的理解。生成语言学的语言习得观和研究成果可从两方面为教学实践提供启发和助益:一是教学内容的区别和设计;二是教学方法的选用和设计。本文进而结合具体示例,探讨如何基于理论假设展开二语习得和教学实证研究,并推论如何将研究结论转化为实践以用于课堂之参考。This paper discusses from a theoretical and conceptual perspective how generative linguistics can be useful to language teaching and learning.Generative linguistics studies the language faculty that is universal to human species,and it emphasizes the internalization of the rule system and attainment of linguistic competence in language acquisition.Proper interpretation of the generative theoretical underpinnings,as well as better understanding of the generative conceptions about language and linguistic competence and of relevant research results can help us better appreciate what it takes to acquire competence in a language.Well-informed decisions can be made on effective language teaching methodologies and materials,thereby facilitating language learning and generating success for learners.Applications of relevant concepts and principles are demonstrated by concrete examples that can be incorporated into lesson designs for the instruction of Chinese to English speakers.
