Acknowledgments
There are a number of people to whom this dissertation and its author owe a great deal over a long period of time.
ProfessorXXX, my supervisor, spares no time and energy, out of his heavy load of office work, teaching and research commitments, to provide substantial guidance on my career as well as on this dissertation. I still feel sorry that he had to read through the first draft on the Spring Festival holiday. During the preparation of this paper, the detailed advice and constant help from him have been both academically authoritative and generous. I also wish to take this opportunity here to thank him for opening up before me a world of wonders in English literature and a world of surprises in literary criticism.
Professor XXX has been giving me continual encouragement for any originality I could have. To him I own not only the present dissertation but also my first published paper on Lord of the Flies. His handling of the classroom discussion always inspires me to ask and answer for myself. I need also to thank him for his patient help on the format of this dissertation.
Professor XXX has introduced me to the golden treasure of English poetry. His role-playing explanations of the English poems bring me to a fuller and deeper appreciation. If the method of analysis in this dissertation is somewhat transplanted from criticism in poetry, it is because I strongly wish to expand my interest in poetry appreciation and criticism, raised by Professor XX, to the other area of literary interpretation.
My special thanks should also go to Professor XX, whose lectures on the structure of English drama have created in me a strong interest for the structures of literary work. Without his strenuous efforts at enlightenment, I could not have chosen to write on the structural aspect of Lord of the Flies.
Finally, I wish to thank Professor XX and Professor XXX, whose lectures have made me fully aware that language is not transparent as a system of signs at the first year of my study in literature. Their lectures have greatly helped me in my search for the author and the audience, and the additional meanings in the form of language itself, and I hope this is reflected here.

Abstract
(以下是一位学生论文的一部分仅供格式参考,没作语言修改)
This article focuses on the role of \\gap\in second language acquisition. It is argued that this notion has gained wide support on the basis of intuition and assumption rather than on the findings of appropriate and exhaustive empirical research. The aim of this paper is twofold: a) to consider the theoretical constructs that underlie the role of noticing, and b) to assess the validity of the assumption that noticing enhances language acquisition. This paper concludes that 1) empirical research has yet to validate the role of noticing in language acquisition, 2) an alternative view offered by Truscott (1998), which suggests that noticing is merely tied to the acquisition of metalinguistic knowledge, is worthy of investigation, and 3) future research into the relationship between training learners to notice linguistic forms and the acquisition of metalinguistic knowledge may enhance our understanding of noticing in second language acquisition.
Key words: noticing; metalinguistic knowledge; linguistic forms
