摘要语用学是上世纪70年代出现的一门新兴独立学科,研究特定情景中的特定话语,即在不同的交际环境下如何理解和运用语言。信息焦点研究话语中音调的高低变化以及诸如重音和停顿等其他超音段特征,对话语的解释和理解起着关键作用,具体表现在情感态度的表达、交际语境的创设、突出信息的强调、信息结构和信息焦点的分布以及话语功能等多个层面。本研究采取问卷调查的实证研究方法,通过实验数据来探究不同的信息焦点怎么对话语理解造成影响,揭示信息焦点对同一日常话语理解的重要性。21833

Title Exploring the impact of different information focuses on the understanding of everyday discourse
Abstract
Pragmatics as an emerging independent discipline in the 1970s studying specific scenario-specific discourse. Namely, it studies how to understand and use language in different communicative environment. Information focuses, characters reflected in the language utilization, refers to changes in the level of discourse and other tones suprasegmental features such as stress and pause, which play a key role in the interpretation and understanding of an everyday discourse. The influence is mainly embodied in different aspects, including attitudes expression, the creation of communicative context. Information focus is reflected in the use of language features, while the study of pragmatics studies the utilization of language, which is to say that this two disciplines shares the same target in the nature. Therefore, it is feasible and necessary to integrate the two aspects. This paper made detailed classification of different focus information and carried out tests to strive for sufficient experimental data, so that it can explore how different information focuses have impact on understanding of everyday discourse.

1.1 Research Background
Pragmatics as an emerging independent discipline in the 1970s, is a study of specific scenario-specific discourse. Namely, it studies how to understand and use language in different communicative environment. Pragmatics is the branch subject of linguistics, which take the significance of language as the object of study and is dedicated to research language understanding and usage. Pragmatics for its own purposes and values differs from syntax, and it is the study of human language itself. In the use of human language, the speaker is often not simply to express the static and symbolic significance of the units. Usually the listener has to identify he actual intent of the speaker through a series of psychological inference. To truly understand appropriate use of a language, it is not enough to just know grammar of the language.
So far, although linguists of pragmatics have still been no uniform definition and scope, there is a consensus that "context is one of the core concepts of pragmatics.” Pragmatics is specialized the importance of context in the communication process of the new discipline. Normal verbal communication cannot do without specific context, which is included intercourse occasions (time, location, etc.), communicative nature (topic), communicative participants (the relationship between them, the objective world knowledge and beliefs, past experiences, the mood, etc.), and context. Context directly influences people's understanding and use of words. In other words, to determine whether certain specific speech acts are appropriate is based on the context and it must be distorted or meaningless to make judgments without context. 信息焦点对日常话语理解影响的语用实证研究:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_14225.html
