摘　　要：本研究以同一年120篇不同任务类型的德语专业四级考试作文为研究对象,探究中国德语专业大学生书面语句法复杂度与写作任务复杂度及其评分的关联性。研究基于罗宾逊的任务分类框架,选取陆小飞二语句法复杂度分析器的14项指标测量句法复杂度,结果表明,随着任务复杂度增加,德语学习者书面语句法复杂度总体呈现下降的趋势,这可能与写作任务的输入差异、体裁差异、学生的写作经验差异及考试文化语境有关。研究还发现,平均T单位长度和每个T单位中的复杂名词性短语数量这两个指标可以较好反映德语学习者写作质量,这与二语句法复杂化途径有关。研究结果对中国德语教学与测试有一定启发。Based on 120 essays with two different task types from Chinese students majoring in the German language in the PGG(Prüfung für das Germanistik-Grundstudium)of the same year,this study investigates the correlation of the students written syntactic complexity with the complexity and performance of writing tasks and their scoring.This study,based on Robinson s Triadic Componential Framework,and the 14 indicators from L2CSA,analyzes the syntactic complexity of the students essays.The findings show there is a general decline in the students syntactic complexity as the complexity of writing tasks increases,which may be accounted for by the differences of writing tasks in language input and genre,the difference in students writing experience,and the exam cultural context.This study also finds the average T-unit length and the number of complex noun phrases per T-unit are two effective indicators of the writing performance of Chinese students majoring in the German language,which is related to the ways to make L2 syntax more complex.The findings are of some implications to the teaching and testing of the German language in China.
