阅读第二语言（L2）不是单语事件；第二语言读者在阅读时可以接触到他们的母语（L1），许多人将其作为一种策略来帮助理解第二语言文本。由于很难观察到理解过程，很少有研究确定母语在二语读者的阅读策略中起什么作用。本研究采用有声思考协议，并对20名在美国学习的汉语和日语母语人士进行回顾性访谈，进一步探讨了二语读者何时使用他们的母语认知资源，以及这种对母语的认知使用如何帮助他们理解二语文本。我们的结论是，研究结果支持第二语言阅读过程的社会文化观点。
Reading in a second language (L2) is not a monolingual event; L2 readers have access to their first language (L1) as they read, and many use it as a strategy to help comprehend an L2 text. Owing to difficulties in observing the comprehension process, little research has been conducted to determine what role the L1 plays in the reading strategies of L2 readers. Using think-aloud protocols and retrospective interviews with 20 native speakers of Chinese and Japanese at three levels of language proficiency studying in the United States, this study explores further the question of when L2 readers use their L1 cognitive resources and how this cognitive use of the L1 helps them comprehend an L2 text. We conclude by suggesting that the results support a sociocultural view of the L2 reading process.
