Abstract

The purpose of senior high school’s English reading is to understand the deep meaning of discourse. In order to achieve this purpose, we must establish implicit coherence. This thesis first introduces some related concepts about implicit coherence, including the introduction to implicit coherence and the features of implicit coherence. Then, the thesis describes how to establish implicit coherence by means of context, world knowledge and the cognitive environment. Finally, it is concluded that the construction of implicit coherence is conducive to students' deep understanding of discourse.
