Based on the cohesion framework of Halliday and Hasan (1976), this study aims at finding out types of cohesive devices as well as examining syntactic and semantic features of cohesive devices commonly used in IELTS Listening Tasks. The study data, 548 samples, were taken from 92 tapescripts of Listening Section Four in 20 IELTS Books. The data was quoted, described and analysed on syntactic and semantic aspects under qualitative and quantitative approaches. Findings of the study show that there are two common types of cohesive devices in IELTS Listening Tasks, namely grammatical cohesive devices and lexical cohesive devices with the former being used more frequently than the latter. Grammatical cohesive devices consist of four kinds: reference, substitution, ellipsis and conjunction; meanwhile, lexical cohesive devices are comprised of five types: repetition, synonymy, hyponymy, antonym and collocation. 2024-07-13T03:55:12Z 2024-07-13T03:55:12Z 2019 luanvanthacsi https://data.ufl.udn.vn//handle/UFL/601 en application/pdf application/pdf Trường Đại học Ngoại ngữ, Đại học Đà Nẵng
