摘　　要：Dialogues are fundamentally driven by xu(C. Wang, 2016, 2017), a Chinese word meaning continuation that captures the process in which interlocutors participate in interaction through the actions of(utterance) completion,(content) extension, and(topic) creation(CEC). This article reports a conversation analytic case study designed to investigate how the continuation strategies of CEC are used in real-time communication to achieve mutual understanding, and thus to construct intersubjectivity(Verhagen, 2005) and promote the development of second language(L2)interactional competence. Our data consisted of audio and video recordings of a 25-minute conversation between two L2 English speakers, one expert and one novice, and a stimulated recall interview with them. Results revealed that the expert employed CEC at the early stage of interaction to maintain successful communication, and the novice gradually aligned with the expert and used CEC to achieve mutual understanding, construct intersubjectivity, and create opportunities for interaction and learning at the late stage, displaying her development of L2 interactional competence. Our findings have useful implications for theoretical and methodological development of the xu-argument studies as well as for xu-based L2 pedagogy.对话由续驱动,是会话者使用句子补全、内容拓展和话题创造(CEC)等续策略参与互动的过程。为考察二语交际中CEC如何促成交际双方达成互解,构建交互主观性,推动二语互动能力发展,本研究采用会话分析方法,通过录音、录像方式采集了两位英语二语者在自然会话中的互动言谈和行为,辅以回溯访谈,考察了二语者CEC使用的基本特征,分析了续与二语互动能力发展的关系。研究发现,会话早期高水平者采用CEC维系成功交际,在会话互动中,低水平者与高水平者逐步达成认知协同,并在会话后期运用CEC推动互解达成,创造了丰富的互动和学习机会,展现出低水平者二语互动能力的发展。上述发现对续论研究和基于续的教学理论发展均具有参考价值。
