选取新乡市剑桥少儿英语一级班中发音困难最大的8位学生做为受试,历时半年采集他们的发音数据,并将录音转写并对发音错误附码。通过对小型语料库的检索、观察,发现中国小学英语学习者辅音替换错误中的发音困难的原因有4点:遇到生词或对单词掌握不熟练;方言背景的影响;未能正确把握清浊这一发音特征;母语迁移及存在问题。解决这类问题方法是通过对不同发音方式的音位的讨论,发现以下辅音替换错误的发生规律,依据规律进行修正。

The current study is based on the data from eight primary school students of Starters＇ Level in Cambridge English. The data collected through half a year are transcribed and mispronunciation-tagged. By observing the substitutive consonant errors in the created corpus, we find primary school learners＇ difficulties and problems in substitutive consonant error type. This paper tries to account for the primary school learners＇ difficulties and suggest possible solutions so as to provide solid evidence and theoretical basis for English pronunciation teaching andlearning.
