Abstract :

نوشتن مقالات از دیرباز به عنوان شیوه ای مهم برای گفتار نوشتاری در نظر گرفته شده است که برای دانش آموزان ، به ویژه برای زبان آموزان انگلیسی (EFL) ، یک متن دشوار است. نوشتن مقاله همچنین بخش مهمی از سیستم آزمون بین المللی زبان انگلیسی (IELTS) را تشکیل می دهد ، به عنوان یکی از معتبرترین آزمون های انگلیسی که برای ارزیابی مهارت زبان افرادی که قصد تحصیل یا کار در زمینه انگلیسی زبان را دارند مورد استفاده قرار می گیرد. این پژوهش یک تجزیه و تحلیل ژانر متضاد از مقالاتی است که توسط مردان و زنان و نویسندگان بومی و غیر بومی در آزمونهای مقاله ای IELTS task 2 ارائه شده است. هدف اصلی مطالعه این است که آیا نویسندگان بومی و غیر بومی از تکنیک های بلاغی یکسانی در نوشتن مقالات آیلتس استفاده کرده اند یا خیر. مطالعه بر اساس چارچوب حرکت ژانرهای Swales (1990) ، این مدل ، مدلی اصلاح شده از چارچوب حرکت ژانر Swales (1990) را برای مقالات استدلالی برای تعدیل تفاوت های مشاهده شده پیشنهاد کرد. یافته ها تفاوت هایی بین نویسندگان مرد و زن ، بومی و غیر بومی در نوشتن این مقالات آیلتس نشان می دهد. این مقاله دارای مفاهیم نظری و مفاهیم آموزشی قابل توجهی برای معلمان ، زبان آموزان ، توسعه دهندگان مواد و طراحان برنامه درسی نیز می باشد.
