Accordingly,discourse knowledge must be taught to the students in a systematic and purposeful way. This paper focuses on the application of discourse analysis in cultivating learners’reading comprehension skills,emphasizing on linguistic relationships set up between sentences which contribute to the overall cohesion of a text,including reference,substitution,ellipsis,conjunction,and lexical cohesion.
