摘　　要：This study investigated the efficiency of learning the Chinese numeral classifiers by L2 Chinese learners by means of an alignment-oriented task. Participants were a total of 96 intermediate learners of L2 Chinese, who were randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group, with each group consisting of 32 participants. The continuation task used in this study consisted of a picture-based Chinese text depicting a room with an array of objects, which necessitates the use of classifiers. The two experimental groups were both required to first read the text and then write to describe their own rooms in comparison with the one in the text. One group was instructed to use the classifiers from the text as much as possible in their writing, whereas the other was not required to do so. Participants in the control group were first given the picture to look at in the absence of the text and then asked to describe their own rooms. The results showed that the continuation task significantly enhanced participants’ retention of the Chinese numeral classifiers, suggesting that the alignment-based approach is an effective way to learn difficult linguistic categories such as the Chinese classifiers.此项研究采用读后续写任务探讨如何提高汉语名量词作为第二语言的学习效率。实验被试为96名学习汉语的外国留学生,随机分为两个实验组和一个对照组,每组32人。所采用的读后续写任务由一篇短文和一张图画构成,短文描述一个房间,里面摆设有各种家具,并在图画上显示。实验要求两个实验组先看图阅读短文,然后笔头描述自己家里的房间,跟短文里的房间进行对比,其中一个组尽量使用短文中出现的量词,对另一组无此要求。对照组不看短文只看图,接下去笔头描述自己家里的房间。实验结果显示,读后续写任务显著提升被试对量词的识记,表明读后续写是一种促学汉语量词的有效方法。
