However, the presence of cohesive devices also plays an important role in assisting text structure processing and comprehension, especially for EFL students of the high school level. The present study examined differences in the expository texts of regular high schools (RHS) and vocational high schools (VHS) in three aspects—linguistic features, cohesive devices, and readability measures. First, expository texts were processed through Coh-Metrix 3.0, an online automatic text processing tool, and 88 indices were selected for statistical analyses. Second, MANOVA and ANOVA showed the VHS and RHS texts mainly differ in linguistic features and readability measures, but very few differences in cohesive devices. The VHS texts are less linguistically challenging, significantly higher in temporal cohesion, and lexical diversity than the RHS texts. Third, the VHS texts are significantly higher in mean scores of Flesch Reading Ease (FRE), and Coh-Metrix L2 whereas the RHS texts are significantly higher in Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level (FKG). Based on the research finding, some pedagogical implications are provided for textbook writers and English teachers. It is hoped that the results could increase the understanding of the current textbooks of two school types in terms of linguistic differences, cohesive devices, and readability as a foundation for English teaching, writing, and selecting the coming new textbooks of the 12-year Basic Education Curriculum Guideline.Coh-Metrix篇章連結性課本高中普通高中高職Coh-Metrixcohesiontextbookssenior high schoolregular high schoolvocational high school高中與高職課本篇章連結性與可讀性測量:以Coh-Metrix分析Assessing Cohesion and Readability of Reading Texts in High School and Vocational High School English Textbooks: An Analysis with Coh-Metrix
