多媒体注释在英语听力理解中应用的实证研究

An Empirical Research on Application of Multimedia Annotations to English Listening Comprehension

在多媒体环境下,为三组受试分别提供词汇语音、词义多媒体、主题多媒体三种注释,并在无注释的条件下设立了控制组进行对照实验。测试材料选自英语专业八级真题,有专题讲座和访谈对话两种题型。结果显示,主题多媒体注释在促进专题式讲座的听力理解方面效果最好,而词汇语音则最有利于访谈对话的理解。在整体听力方面,比起无注释和多媒体词义注释,主题多媒体和词汇语音注释的效果较好且彼此无显著差别。

In multimedia environment,this study provides three types of annotations,which are word pronunciation, multimedia word meaning and multimedia theme,to three groups of subjects with a control group assisted with no annotation. The test materials are selected from past test papers of TEM8 examination and consist of two types of listening materials,lectures and interviews. The result indicates that multimedia theme annotation can best promote the understanding of lectures while word pronunciation does the best job for interviews. For listening in general,compared to none and mul-timedia word meaning annotation,both word pronunciation and multimedia theme annotation are more effective and have no significant difference between them.
