ABSTRACT

This study compared the summaries written by intermediate Chinese learners of Japanese for the same argumentative text before and after intensive reading guidance, analyzing changes in remaining content and paraphrasing methods. In addition, evaluations from multiple Japanese language teachers on the summaries before and after intensive reading were included to verify the effectiveness of intensive reading guidance on summary writing. In the summaries after the "expository writing" guidance, misinterpretations caused by a lack of language knowledge were corrected, and modifications were made by adding explanatory sentences. Significant differences were found in evaluation items such as "logicality" and "fidelity." Furthermore, due to a reduction in syntactic errors, significant differences were observed in the "accuracy of expression" and overall "achievement level." However, even in the summaries after guidance, there were still issues such as repetition of semantic content and inclusion of low-importance elements, so no significant differences were found in "non-redundancy." On the other hand, in the summaries after "argumentative writing" guidance, misinterpretations in terms of logical relationships were not corrected, and no significant differences were found in any of the evaluation items. This reveals the effectiveness and limitations of intensive reading guidance in summary writing.
