大学英语听力难点的调查及教学启示

An Investigation into Difficulties of College English Listening Comprehension and Its Teaching Implications

依据Anderson提出的语言理解的三段式认知框架,分析102名非英语专业学生在听力实践中遇到的实时听力难点。研究结果显示:大部分的听力问题发生在感知阶段,其中,最为突出的5个听力难点依次为:不能识别已知词汇;能听出一些单词但不能从中获得有用的信息;语速过快;刚刚听到的内容很快就忘了;注意力不够集中或过于集中。为此,大学英语听力教学应注重提高学生语言能力、词汇能力和听力策略能力。

Based on the three-phase model of language comprehension proposed by Anderson, the research investigates real-time listening comprehension difficulties that 102 non-English majors encounter in a listening practice. The study indicates that most listening problems occurred in the phase of perception. Among all the listening barriers identified, the most frequently mentioned five ones included： do not recognize words they know, unable to form a mental representation from words heard, fast speech rate, quickly forget what is heard and concentrate too hard or unable to concentrate. Thus, college English listening teaching should pay attention to improve students＇ language ability, lexical competence and listening strategy ability.
