中国二语学习者英语作文中存现句否定式的使用特征——一项基于中外写作语料库的对比研究

A Corpus-based Study on the Negative Pattern of English Existential Sentence

运用CLEC,WECCL和BROWN语料库对比分析中国学习者英语作文中存现句否定式的使用特点,结果表明:中国学习者过度使用there is no句型,过少使用there was no和therehad been no句式;there be not句型在中介语中有交替使用的现象。此外,英语专业学习者有否定式缩略句和there will be no句式过度使用的倾向。

Based on CLEC, WECCL, and BROWN, this study probes into the characteristics of the negative pattern of existential sentence using frequencies by Chinese students and native speakers in their written materials. The results show some regularities in using ＂ there be no＂ and ＂ there be not＂ pattern, and Chinese second language learners＂ overuse and underuse of some patterns.
