In this paper, eye movement experiments used to explore the influence of the stimulating course of reading English polysemy. Under the change of lexical ability and contextual conditions, the correct rate and three variables were obtained by capturing the eyeball trajectory, including 1. The correct rate of the word meaning by chosen; 2. The eye movement pattern of the leading sentence reading time; 3. The reading time (latency) in the stimulating process of word meaning. The total reading time includes the reading time of the main semantics (domain-biased TVT)﹐the reading time of the secondary semantics (secondary-biased TVT) and the neutral and non-contextual reading time (non-biased TVT). This paper also answers the study of the main and secondary meaning of the semantic relevance of polysemy in the context of ambiguity in the former and non-contextual.
This study found that when reading the context of polysemy, the semantic primary and secondary meaning excitation course accords with the study of Sereno in 2006. That is, the multiple meanings of ambiguous words are stimulated according to the frequency, the context will promote the appropriate semantic excitation degree and then influence the lexical touch, and the main, secondary and contextual effects of the relative frequencies of ambiguous words are the important factors that affect Chinese English readers ' reading polysemy. Context does not favor any meaning when the main, secondary meaning is likely to be stimulated and the main meaning of the excitation level promoted, and the secondary significance of the relative frequency suppressed. The results found that the Chinese English reader reading polysemy words in the process of stimulating the same as the English-language readers, usually stimulated by the degree of the main semantics is greater than the secondary semantics.
Comprehensive English vocabulary proficiency test and eye movement experiments results, it found that Chinese readers’ English word meaning mastery is an important factor affecting reading polysemy. This result and many foreign scholars believe that reading ambiguous sentences containing polysemy, word meaning judgment is one of the main three influential factors is consistent (cruse,2000;rayner,1989). The results of the study also found that only the reader's ability to grasp the meaning of the words in the sense of meaning has a significant effect on the touch and stimulation of reading polysemy, and the main reason of the reading speed is not the average gaze time but the gaze number. In addition, the reader's ability on pronunciation rules only has a significant marginal difference in the gaze time of the reading leading sentences.
