初中生在英语写作中冠词使用的偏误分析

Analysis of Errors in the Use of Articles by Junior High School Students in English Writing

摘要: 本研究以重庆市万州区某初中七年级学生为对象，系统分析其英语写作中冠词使用的偏误类型及分布特征。通过偏误分析法，结合人工标注与量化统计，对60篇学生作文中的冠词使用情况进行归类与对比，发现初中生在冠词使用中存在显著的系统性偏误，主要表现为冠词遗漏与误用，尤以定冠词“the”的误用最为突出。此外，不同英语水平组学生在冠词偏误的数量与类型上呈现出显著差异，表明语言水平与冠词掌握能力之间存在紧密关联。研究进一步揭示，冠词偏误多源于母语负迁移、语篇理解偏差以及语法知识掌握薄弱。研究成果不仅丰富了中学英语写作偏误研究的实证基础，也为优化语法教学策略、提升学生写作准确性提供了数据支持与实践指引。

Abstract: This study focuses on seventh-grade students from a middle school in Wanzhou Chongqing, systematically analyzing the types and distribution characteristics of article usage errors in their English writing. Using error analysis methods combined with manual annotation and quantitative statistics, the study categorized and compared article usage in 60 student compositions. The findings reveal significant systematic errors in article use among these students, primarily manifested as omissions and misuses of articles, with the misuse of the definite article “the” being particularly prominent. Additionally, students of different English proficiency levels showed significant differences in both the number and types of article errors, indicating a close relationship between language proficiency and mastery of articles. The study further reveals that these article errors largely stem from negative transfer from the native language, misunderstandings of discourse context, and weak grammatical knowledge. The results not only enrich the empirical foundation of research on errors in secondary school English writing but also provide data support and practical guidance for optimizing grammar teaching strategies and improving students’ writing accuracy.
