利用语言迁移理论和偏误分析理论,从音位特征中的元音、辅音,超音段特征中的语调、重音及其他特征中的连读、停顿这些方面来探究汉语普通话对英语发音在语言因素上的负迁移作用.根据中国学习者产生的偏误扣负迁移,找出相关对策:学习语音理论知识、实施对比训练、增加语音模仿,希望能促进学习者对普通话发音和英语发音的认识,有的放矢地去训练和纠正,提高英语发音的基本功.
基于中国大学生笔语语料库(WECCL)和英国国家语料库(BNC)对中国大学生使用concern进行对比的偏误分析,借用语料库检索软件Wordsrnith从concern各词性的使用频率,发现中国大学生名词少用,形容词、介词、动词过度使用等问题,并通过对比两个语料库中concern的语义韵使用情况,发现中国大学生语义韵运用不当,探究其主要原因是中国大学生在学习单词时因词典及教材简单释义、教师讲解不足对单词用法了解不够而产生负迁移影响.

语篇与翻译的研究和相互作用逐渐成为译学中的焦点问题。语篇类型是篇章语言学的核心要点,对等式是翻译研究的中心问题。在20世纪70年代Reiss提出了对翻译中的语篇类型的研究。翻译的语言学研究一直在翻译理论中占主导地位,为了研究翻译的过程和结果,各主要语言学理论都运用于翻译研究。其中Halliday的系统功能语篇分析是最有影响力的语篇分析模式。而语篇类型影响翻译策略,这一概念已被广泛认可。在翻译的过程中,译者应对原语语篇的体裁和语域两个因素进行分析,考虑影响翻译过程中各个变量的作用。在此通过分析体裁、语域、互文三者之间的关系以及三者所构成的体系,进一步解释语篇层面翻译对等的重要性,克服文化等因素的干扰,力求取得功能对等的翻译。
跨文化交际的语用失误主要是指不同文化背景的人们在交际过程中对语言的运用不够得体而产生的语言失误。跨文化交际的语用失误包括社交语用失误和语用语言失误两种基本类型。跨文化交际语用失误产生的原因是多种多样的。可采取以下对策培养学生的跨文化交际语用能力:了解目的语文化,传授语用知识;尽量创造语言环境,不断开展交际活动。
词汇是外语学习的基石。针对如何有效学习和掌握词汇,文章以双重体系论为依据,探讨语块、搭配在语言实际运用中的重要性和普遍性,并从人类认知的记忆规律出发分析了语块学习在英语词汇教学中的必要性和合理性,提出在英语词汇教与学中应将语块作为重点。
采用语料库的方法,比较中国英语专业研究生学位论文中的被动语态的使用与母语者结果发现,中国研究生学位论文被动句的使用频率高于母语者并且差异显著。通过对中国英语研究生学位论文的情态动词被动句检索发现,情态动词被动句的使用频率高于母语者并且差异显著。情态动词被动句的过多使用占被动句总的过多使用频次的45%,这说明被动句的过多使用,有近50%的原因来自于情态动词被动句的过多使用。
Love is an eternal topic for people and there are a number of love proverbs in both Chinese and English.

This paper explores the theoretical foundation o Task-driven Approach in teaching and learning an analyzes an application of this approach in a rea classroom teaching. From the teaching practice an interview the author concludes that Task-drive Approach best characterizes the teaching principle o learner-centered, interest-focused, task-based an real-life-related.
