摘要：

This research aimed at investigating the relationship between discourse markers ( DMs), language proficiency and reading comprehension of EFL university students. Three groups of students were selected to participate in the study. The participants in each group took a proficiency test and a reading comprehension test including two passages with various numbers of DMs. Two statistical measures such as UNANOVA and Matched T-Test were run. The study came to significant findings: ( 1) More DMs meant better comprehension. ( 2) Levels of proficiency did not display clashing results when dealing with a fewer number of DMs. ( 3) Manipulation of the passages was significant. (c) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
