二语习得过程中母语的正迁移作用—以《现代汉语》课程教学为例

Positive Transfer of Mother Tongue in Second Language Acquisition—A Case Study of Teaching Modern Chinese

摘要: 第二语言的学习涉及学习者原有的语言知识，学习者会利用母语来理解和建构新的知识。同样，中国学生在学习英语的过程中也会受到其母语——汉语的影响和制约。为了论证汉语基础知识和汉语水平对英语学习的正迁移作用，笔者在本论文中对英语专业学生进行了问卷调查和访谈，通过翻译测试获得定量数据，并使用SPSS17.0软件对收集的数据进行对比分析，从而得出《现代汉语》课程无论是对提高大学英语专业学生的汉语言文化修养，还是对提高他们的英语翻译水平都起着至关重要的作用。
