本文介绍了一种处理高级ESL学习者发音的方法,这些学习者可能相对流利,但仍然很不准确。他们的发音通常被认为是“标准化的”(Selinker 1972),高度抗拒改变。这种方法所针对的特定群体有些独特:外国专业人员,其中许多人已经在英语环境中工作多年。尽管如此,所涉及的一般框架和方法适用于许多情况。对于这样的英语学习者,传统的发音方法往往是无效的。一个成功的,有点非正统的教学计划,借鉴了几个学科的研究概述。
This article describes an approach for dealing with the pronunciation of advanced ESL learners who may be relatively fluent but who remain quite inaccurate. Their pronunciation is often thought of as being "fossilized" (Selinker 1972), highly resistant to change. The specific group for which this approach was designed is somewhat unique: foreign professionals, many of whom have been in Englishspeaking environments for years. Nonetheless, the general framework and the method involved are applicable in many contexts. For such fossilized learners, traditional pronunciation methods are often ineffective. A successful, somewhat unorthodox teaching program that draws on research from several disciplines is outlined.
