摘　　要：本研究考察话题熟悉度对写作过程中修改的影响,探究中国英语学习者的写作认知过程特点,从修改目标、修改范围和修改位置三个维度对修改进行多维度分析。研究通过Inputlog 8.0记录二语写作过程,并在写作后进行刺激性回忆和访谈。结果发现,在学习者语言能力和认知资源有限的情况下,话题熟悉度对其写作修改总量没有影响,但是熟悉话题释放的认知资源影响了修改类型的分布;与不熟悉话题组相比,熟悉话题组的学习者做了更多认知需求较高的修改,具体包括目标维度上对内容的修改和范围维度上对子句及以上结构的修改;但是,无论话题熟悉与否,学习者都更注重语言、更多地进行认知需求较低的修改。Revisions in L2 writing were explored in this study to better understand Chinese EFL writers’ cognitive processing from the perspective of topic familiarity.Revisions were recorded with Inputlog 8.0 and analyzed within a multidimensional framework consisting of orientation,linguistic domain,and location.The controlled comparison study found no topic familiarity effect in the total amount of revisions due to the limitations of the L2 writers in both linguistic competence and cognitive resources,but effects were found in the types of revision.When the learners wrote on a familiar topic,more cognitive-demanding revisions were made,such as content revisions in orientation and revisions of clauses-and-above in the linguistic domain.No matter whether the topic was familiar or not,learners tended to make more language-related revisions and less cognitively demanding revisions far more frequently than more cognitively demanding revisions.
