The purpose of this study was to investigate intra-textual connections of written English discourse. For that purpose, five samples (10 paragraphs each) from a widely-used American nursing textbook were analysed for independent clauses. Then the semantic connections through cohesion among their Themes and Rhemes across clause boundaries were identified and the frequencies of the four types of connections (Theme/Theme, Rheme/Theme, Rheme/Rheme, Theme/Rheme) were counted. The results of the analysis revealed that the average number of independent clauses in a paragraph was 4.54, that nominal Themes were more frequent than adverbial Themes, and that Rheme/Theme and Theme/Theme connections across independent clauses were more frequent than Rheme/Rheme and Theme/Rheme connections. It is expected that such textual knowledge should help EFL writers to write a coherent text for a practical purpose similar to that of the material used in this study.
