This study explores how linking text and image modalities in language learning may support reading comprehension and richer meanings to be generated among EFL sophomore students. The experimental group resorted more to Collocate (i.e., ideas that naturally co-occur) and Antonym (i.e., making contrast), other than Repetition, in interpreting the images and so presented richer meanings than the control group.
