520 $a The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects that syntactic structure of textual material have on the reading comprehension of the material. The syntactic structure of the material combined with the language proficiency levels of ESL students was the criteria for measurement.
520 $a The review of literature focused on (1) studies that investigate or describe factors which influence reading comprehension, (2) studies that are related to finding a relationship between written and oral language, (3) studies that investigate or describe the relationship between syntax and comprehension, (4) studies that describe first and second language acquisition and correlation of the two, and (5) studies that are related to learning to read in a second language.
520 $a The population selected for this study was two hundred ESL high school students with four or more years of English instruction in Taipei, Taiwan. The students were selected in such a way as to limit research bias as much as possible.
520 $a Findings revealed that: (1) Reading comprehension is greater when there is a match between the syntactic structure of the textual material and the oral language proficiency level than when there is no "match." (2) At the fifth level, the match of syntactic structure of the textual material and the oral language proficiency level did not have great effect on reading comprehension. (3) Level four students did less than well than their level five counterparts when matched material was used. However, the reverse result was found for matched material.
520 $a Conclusions. ESL students who read written textual materials with syntactic structures which match their oral language proficiency level have higher reading comprehension achievement scores than those who read textual materials which are not similarly matched.
