国内近10年英语语音习得研究综述

Literature Review of Studies on English Phonological Acquisition in 10 Recent Years

摘要: 本文从研究的发展趋势、研究对象、研究方法和研究焦点四个方面对国内2012~2022年有关英语语音习得的学术期刊论文进行了梳理和分析。结果表明：(1) 在研究的发展趋势方面，国内英语语音习得研究2013年发文量最多，2014~2017四年间发文量呈现递增趋势，发文量保持在较高水平，2018~2021年出现回落，并呈现逐年递减的趋势。(2) 在研究对象方面，在实证研究中，研究对象具体涉及幼儿、小学生、初中生、高中生、非英语专业大学生和英语专业大学生等，其中占比较多的分别是大学生(51.6%)和初中生(29.0%)。(3) 在研究方法方面，主要的研究方法有综述研究、实证研究和理论研究。在这些研究方法下又具体划分为问卷调查法、深入访谈法、声学分析法、对比研究法、假设验证法等。(4) 在研究焦点方面，近10年来对英语语音习得的研究主要集中在年龄和关键期、母语迁移、语音意识、音乐能力、基于语音语料库的研究、计算机辅助语音教学等方面。研究不足表现为：(1) 鲜有聚焦于研究生的英语语音习得状况研究。(2) 缺乏深度的纵向对比研究，结合语音语料库和实验语音学的研究仍然较少。(3) 我国在语音学音系学方面的研究理论视角相对单一，尚未形成一套与中国具体国情相结合的英语二语语音研究项目，还需将研究成果实际应用于国内的英语教学。

Abstract: This paper reviews and analyzes Chinese academic papers on English speech acquisition from 2012 to 2022 from four aspects: development trend, research objects, research methods and re-search focus. The results show that: (1) In terms of research development trends, the number of published papers in domestic English speech acquisition research was the largest in 2013, and the number of published papers showed an increasing trend from 2014 to 2017. The number of published papers kept at a high level, and decreased year by year from 2018 to 2021. (2) In terms of research objects, in the empirical study, the research objects specifically involved children, primary school students, junior high school students, senior high school students, non-English majors and English majors, among which college students (51.6%) and junior high school students (29.0%) accounted for a large proportion respectively. (3) In terms of research methods, the main research methods include review research, empirical research and theoretical research. These research methods are further divided into questionnaire survey method, in-depth interview method, acoustic analysis method, comparative research method, hypothesis testing method and so on. (4) In terms of research focus, the research on English speech acquisition in the past 10 years mainly focuses on age and critical period, mother tongue transfer, phonological awareness, musical ability, corp-based research, computer-aided speech teaching and so on. The research deficiencies are as follows: (1) There are few researches focusing on the status of English pronunciation acquisition of postgraduates. (2) There is a lack of in-depth longitudinal comparative studies, and there are still few studies combining speech corpus and experimental phonetics. (3) The research theory of phonetics and phonology in China is relatively single, and a set of English second language phonetics research projects have not been formed in combination with China’s specific conditions, and the research results need to be applied to English teaching in China.
