中文摘要:汉语拼音对英语语音学习的迁移作用,在学术界一直存在争议。但大部分国外研究的目标焦点都集中在二语习得和城市学生。由于农村学生学习条件和学习特点的特殊性,本文决定以此为研究对象,采用抽样调查和访谈的方法,对勐仑中学60个初三学生和10位初中英语教师进行了调查研究,旨在了解农村中学生英语语音学习的现状。并利用语言迁移理论的相关知识对调查结果进行分析,以此来论证汉语拼音对英语语音学习有迁移作用的假设。同时探讨在英语教学中如何利用汉语拼音的正迁移作用促进英语语音的学习,也探讨了如何避免其负迁移所带来的影响。本研究的结果将给从事少数民族地区英语教学的老师们提供英语音标教学有利的依据,并对农村初中学生正确掌握英语发音起到积极的作用。
