【摘要】：中介语(interlanguage)和石化(fossilization)是最早由英国语言学家Selinker1969年提出的。他认为95%的二语学习者都会出现石化现象,其语言能力不能达到本族人同等水平。中介语石化现象是二语习得过程中的普遍现象。中介语的研究历来是二语习得领域的热点问题,因此它备受国内外学者的重视。在中介语的研究中,石化现象也是研究的一大重点,国外学者对其进行了大量的、多方面的研究。但国内学者对中介语石化的研究起步相对较晚,且主要侧重对国外研究成果理论的介绍、评价和验证,并未形成自己独立的、完善的、有影响的理论,从而帮助中国二语学习者构建一套延缓中介语石化现象产生的理论体系。在我国的大学英语写作教学中,多数教师发现学生们的作文中存在着一些重复性的错误,即使纠正仍然会再次出现,因此学生们写作水平一直停滞不前。其中,作为写作的基础,词汇的学习对写作水平的提高起着重要的作用。与此同时,词汇的石化也会阻碍写作水平的提高。基于对大学生在英语写作中的词汇错误以及他们写作能力停滞不前现象的观察与思考,本文以此为切入点来探究大学生英语写作中的词汇石化现象,并提出以下问题:(1)大学生英语写作中是否存在词汇石化现象?(2)词汇石化的具体分布情况如何?(3)导致词汇石化的因素及避免的策略有哪些?通过对收集的英语作文以及问卷调查的研究与分析,本文有以下发现:(1)在大学生的英语写作中,的确存在词汇石化现象。(2)通过对学生作文的分析,作者发现各类词性的词汇石化均有体现,并列出了词汇石化的具体分布情况。(3)基于对调查问卷的逐一分析,作者对词汇石化现象产生的原因进行了尝试性的分析,得出造成词汇石化的主要因素有:对词汇石化认识不足;母语负迁徙;缺乏适当的目的语输入;学习策略不当;写作反馈不足以及缺少学习动机和对目的语的过度概括。在文章的最后,根据词汇石化的产生原因,笔者就未来的大学英语写作及克服石化现象提出了几点改进意见:增强对词汇石化的意识;减少母语负迁徙;提高目的语的输入质量和加强写作反馈。词汇石化的成因分析为消除词汇石化,提高写作能力提供了新思路。同时,本文的研究也对进一步改善汉语环境下的大学英语写作教学有一定的借鉴作用。
[Abstract]:Interlanguage and fossilization were first proposed by English linguist Selinker1969. He believes that 95% of L2 learners have fossilized phenomena and their language proficiency is not equal to that of native language learners. Interlanguage fossilization is a common phenomenon in second language acquisition. The study of interlanguage has always been a hot topic in the field of second language acquisition (SLA). In the study of interlanguage, fossilization is also a major research focus, foreign scholars have done a lot of research on it. However, the research of interlanguage fossilization has started relatively late, and has mainly focused on the introduction, evaluation and verification of foreign research achievements, and has not formed its own independent, perfect and influential theory. In order to help Chinese second language learners to build a set of delayed interlanguage fossilization phenomenon theory system. In the teaching of college English writing in China, most teachers find that there are some repetitive errors in the students' compositions, even if the correction will still occur again, so the students' writing level has been stagnant. As the basis of writing, vocabulary learning plays an important role in the improvement of writing level. At the same time, the fossilization of vocabulary will hinder the improvement of writing level. Based on the observation and reflection of college students' lexical errors in English writing and the stagnation of their writing ability, this paper takes this as a starting point to explore the phenomenon of lexical fossilization in college students' English writing. The following questions are raised: (1) is there a phenomenon of lexical fossilization in college students' English writing? (2) what is the specific distribution of lexical fossilization? (3) what are the factors leading to lexical fossilization and the strategies to avoid it? Through the research and analysis of the collected English composition and the questionnaire survey, the following findings are made in this thesis: (1) there is indeed lexical fossilization in college students' English writing. The author finds that all kinds of lexical fossilization of parts of speech are embodied, and lists the specific distribution of lexical fossilization. (3) based on the analysis of the questionnaire, the author makes a tentative analysis of the causes of the phenomenon of lexical fossilization. The main factors of lexical fossilization are: lack of understanding of fossilization; negative migration of mother tongue; lack of appropriate target language input; inappropriate learning strategies; inadequate writing feedback; lack of motivation and over-generalization of the target language. At the end of the paper, according to the causes of lexical fossilization, the author puts forward some suggestions on the future college English writing and overcoming the phenomenon of fossilization: enhancing the awareness of lexical fossilization, reducing the negative migration of native language; Improve the input quality of the target language and enhance the writing feedback. The cause analysis of lexical fossilization provides a new idea for eliminating lexical fossilization and improving writing ability. At the same time, the research of this paper can be used for reference to further improve the teaching of college English writing in Chinese environment.
