英汉句法差异对英语写作负迁移的影响

Influences of English-Chinese syntactic differences on negative transfer in English writing

为考察英汉句法异同对于英语写作中句法负迁移的影响,采用问卷调查和SPSS、Markin等软件分析的方法,基于学习者中介语理论对50名低水平高职英语学习者的句法负迁移语料进行偏误分析。研究发现:英汉语际句法对比教学比语内句法教学的效果更显著;但实验组实验前后句法负迁移频数差异不显著,而对照组负迁移频数上升。

In order to study the influence of English-Chinese syntactic similarities and dif- ferences upon negative transfer in English writing, questionnaire, SPSS and Markin software were adopted to make error analyses of 50 low-proficiency L2 learners＇ writing data on negative syntactic transfer based on the interlanguage theories. Findings show that contras- tive teaching of English and Chinese syntax receives more efficient effect than the teaching focusing only on intralingual syntax; however, the frequencies of negative syntactic transfer before and after the experiment of the experimental group are not significantly different, while the frequency of the control group increases instead.
