本研究利用眼动追踪技术，围绕流畅阅读的“快速”、“目的性”和“理解性”特征，考察了母语和二语读者的在线阅读模式和理解能力。从9名L1阅读者和9名L2阅读者的眼动数据收集，分析和比较。进行实验后采访以获取人口统计和背景信息。研究结果表明，母语和二语读者在语言水平方面是异质的，但在其他方面，尤其是在线阅读模式和理解能力方面，他们是同质的。虽然母语阅读者的阅读速度远快于二语阅读者，但他们的注意力分配和阅读理解测试成绩与二语阅读者相似。本研究的结论是，在考察流畅性阅读的“快速”、“目的性”和“理解性”特征时，母语和二语在线阅读的基本能力因素是相似的。当掌握了一门语言的核心词汇后，元认知阅读技能在新的读写能力背景下对流利的阅读起着主要作用。
Utilizing eye-tracking technology and focusing on the “rapid”, “purposeful” and “comprehending” attributes of fluent reading, this study investigated first language (L1) and second language (L2) readers' online reading patterns and comprehension. Eye movement data from nine L1 readers and nine L2 readers were collected, analyzed and compared. Post-experiment interviews were conducted to obtain demographic and background information. The results indicate that L1 and L2 readers are heterogeneous when language proficiency is considered but they are homogeneous in many other aspects when the focus is on their online reading patterns and comprehension. While L1 readers read much faster than L2 readers, their attention distribution and performance on reading comprehension test are similar to L2 readers'. This study concludes that the essential online reading competency factors are similar in L1 and L2's online reading when the “rapid”, “purposeful” and “comprehending” attributes of fluent reading are under investigation. When the core vocabulary of a language is mastered, it is metacognitive reading skills that play a major role in fluent reading in the context of new literacy.
