摘要：传统观点认为，阅读理解是读者的单边行为，近年来，随着研究的不断深入，篇章的交际功能逐渐被认识。因此，篇章被视为是作者与读者相互交流的桥梁。通过研究得知，“连贯”是保证这种交流的重要前提。它分为“篇章连贯”和“思维连贯”。前者主要指作者在创作篇章时所使用的语言衔接机制；后者主要指储存于读者头脑中的“图式”知识。两者的有效结合确保阅读理解的顺利完成。%The traditional way of treating text as the writer＇ s monologue has been gradually discarded, while increasingly great attention has been given to the communicative nature of text. Therefore, text is viewed as a functional tool of the communication between the writer and the reader. Coherence, in this paper, is regarded as the guarantee of their successful communication and is categorized into coherence in text and coherence in mind. The former refers to cohesion achieved by some cohesive devices, while the establishment of the latter depends on the schema knowledge stored in the reader＇ s mind. In another word, coherence in text is a linguistic phenomenon, whereas coherence in mind is a mental phenomenon, and the combination of the two contributes a tentatively new concept of coherence, which is achieved by the writer and the reader jointly.
