Although intermediate and advanced Chinese learners have mastered a wealth of language form knowledge,they cannot effectively express themselves in paragraphs.A bottleneck in Chinese teaching has not been effectively solved for many years.At the intermediate and advanced levels,it is even more necessary to develop students textual competence.Mind maps,as a visual tool,can show the brain's thinking process,organize the structure of thinking structure,and theoretically can effectively solve the problems that mentioned above.The innovation of this article is mainly to use mind maps as a tool to start from the perspective of topic conversion,cohesion and coherence,etc.,try to cultivate intermediate and advanced Chinese learners' text consciousness and text structure ability,and thus build a personalized expression framework.This study selected KINA23,an intermediate class of Chinese major at Lund University in Sweden,as the research object.The 13 subjects were Swedish,aged between 22-25 years old,all full-time Chinese learners.They have been studying Chinese for three years.Professional studies equipped them a better understanding of China's national society and culture,and have a high interest in learning Chinese.In this 30-hour Chinese lessons,students use systemic mind maps to read and write reasonably at the beginning,and examines the effects of the structure of the text,and collects written assignments and interview recordings in the experiment for data analysis.Vocabulary richness and syntactic complexity were focused during the experimentThe data observed that(1)students' expression vocabulary increased,and the length of the topic chain increased significantly.The results show that students have made significant progress in the level of Chinese text expression,text awareness has improved significantly.(2)The written assignment found that students consciously used time and spatial order to organize the chapter structure.The time required for written output was shortened,and structured and The readability is greatly enhanced,and the expression is more authentic.(3)The interview found that the memory of vocabulary and text structure is enhanced,and the structure can be used to predict the text content.At the same time,it is more consciously applied to other output tasks to help self-expression.What's more,mind maps make students The "visualization" of learning effects brings students a sense of accomplishment.
