目前,不同口音的英语使用者之间的互动越来越多,这就导致了在理解不熟悉的英语口音时偶尔会遇到困难。本研究试图提出一种使用模仿听不熟悉的英语口音的教学方法。参与者是96名日本大学生。一组在剧本的帮助下做影子,一组只做影子,而对照组只听,不参与影子。研究人员使用了五个语音样本,每个样本都有不同的英语口音。75项听写测试(中国口音、意大利口音和美国口音各25项)作为测试前和测试后进行。结果表明,单纯的影子练习可能无法促进学生的感知适应,但当伴随着剧本时,影子练习可以增强学生的感知适应。
The current rise in interactions among English speakers with different accents entails occasional difficulties in understanding unfamiliar English accents. This study attempted to propose a teaching technique using shadowing to listen to unfamiliar English accents. The participants were 96 Japanese university students. One group worked on shadowing assisted by script, one on shadowing only, while the control group only listened and did not engage in shadowing. Five speech samples, each read in a different English accent, were used. A 75‐item dictation test (with 25 items each for Chinese, Italian, and American accents) was administered as both a pre‐ and post‐test. The results showed that while only shadowing practice alone may not promote perceptual adaptation, when accompanied by a script, it enhances students’ perceptual adaptation.
