双语者第二语言表征的形成与发展

The Formation and Development of Second Language Representation in Bilinguals

本文通过一个实验 ,对双语者第二语言表征的形成与发展问题进行了探讨。从反应时来看 ,低年级被试对与汉语语序一致的英语语句的认知反应速度明显快于对与汉语语序不一致的语句的反应速度 ,而这种差异在高年级被试组不再存在。结果显示 ,两种语言间形式的匹配是第二语言表征形成的主要过程。

An experiment was conducted to probe into the issue of the formation and development of bilinguals' second language representation Within the beginner group, the response time for recognizing English sentences which were syntactically identical with Chinese counterparts was shorter than that for recognizing sentences which were not; but the difference disappeared in the advanced learner group The result suggests that matching between the forms of two languages is the main process during the formation of second language representation
