本文以 2020 年的《星洲日报》做为语料，采用了文献研究法和统计分析法对其中成语的数量及使用情况进行了统计、归类与分析。研究发现，《星洲日报》成语的使用特点是：成语用词过于单一，将近 30%的成语是具有重复性质的；有一半以上的成语都充当谓语，说明成语主要充当的是谓语； 方言成语的使用也比较有地方特色。

此外，本文对不同语境中的成语做了相应归类，通过观察句内语境、上下文语境和社会文化语境，给读者示范了在阅读过程中我们应该如何通过各种语境线索，推测出成语的含义。笔者发现，语境分析能帮助留学生更好地理解文章内容，解决其阅读速度慢的问题，同时也有助于提升其成语学习效率。

最后，笔者为马来西亚留学生提供了一些成语阅读及写作学习的建议： 第一，养成阅读言论版面和周日副刊的好习惯；第二，养成重视语境的阅读习惯；第三，自制一个“成语资料库”，丰富成语的积累，并且学以致用。希望本文能帮助马来西亚留学生更有效率地通过阅读报纸学习成语。
