Description
Summary:The theoretical and applied aspects of linguistics associated with the use of the functional approach were studied. The analysis of the interrelated problems of the formation and development of functional literacy, reading literacy, as well as perception and understanding of the text was carried out taking into account the principles of studying and describing linguistic phenomena outlined in the earlier own publications. The text was described as a major object of Russian philology at the present stage and as an instrument of social interaction, which is structurally determined by its function. The obtained results confirm the relevance of the problem of studying the patterns of perception and understanding the text as an integral object rather than a source of linguistic units of different tiers. The functional definition of the text was introduced, thereby making it possible to supplement the educational practice with a methodology of work that takes into account the need to develop students’ skills and abilities associated with the conscious and systematic extraction of information from texts of various kinds and the use of this information in their activities.
