16、nce浅谈英汉语言对比研究的重要性内容摘要不同的国家和民族的语言表现出的文化背景和思维模式都有所不同。对学习英语的中国学生来说，通过英汉语言的对比，可以使其认识到英语和汉语的差别，从而对英语学习能够有更深刻的认识。许多中国语言学家对英汉语言对比做过大量研究，基于前人的研究，我在论文创作之前做了文献综述，其内容包括：英汉对比语言学的定义；及中国英汉对比语言学的发展历程。本文通过文献综述向大家展示英汉对比语言学的发展历程，从而使更多的人了解并认识到英汉对比的重要性。本文主要通过大量的实例对英汉两种语言在词汇、句子结构、段落和篇章以及英汉文化上的对比与分析来说明两种语言的相异之处，以帮助英语学习者确

19、oreign language study spring from disturbance of the mother language. When the mother language and a foreign language are different, the former will disturb the latters learning. However, when they are the same, the former will help the latters learning. It is called “language transfer”. Language tr
20、ansfer is positive when the two languages have much in common, and will be negative when they are different, which are called positive transfer and negative transfer. In their opinion language learners should pay attention to the differences caused by negative transfer. The purpose of contrastive st
21、udy is promoting positive transfer by contrasting the characteristics of the two languages. In the process of language study we often find that if the foreign language is familiar with the mother language, it will be easy to study. Take Korean and Chinese for example, there are a lot of words having
22、 the same pronunciation, so Chinese people will find it easy to study Korean. On the contrary, if the two languages are different, the study will be difficult. For English learners, its a good way to do contrastive analysis between English and Chinese to help learn English well.Contrastive study wil
23、l make English learners know the characteristics of the two languages. The contrast will tell us what should be focused and in what way the negative transfer could be avoided. Chinese learners of English need to know how to avoid Chinglish and how to improve their skills, especially translation skil
24、ls. They should make contrastive analysis on words formation, words matching, word order, sentence structure, paragraph structure and culture. Thus we can see the significance of contrastive English on English study.2 Literature Review on Contrastive Study Contrastive study between English and Chine
25、se has developed for many years, but there are still so many people dont realize the significance of contrastive English, even they dont know what contrastive English is. As a English major, I want to improve English standard, for 10 years English study, I found English is not as difficult as I imag
26、ined, maybe the reason is I both like English and Chinese. Engels said, “You could know your own language only if you compared it with other languages.”1 So, when we learn a language, we should compare it with our own languages, thus having depth recognition of the characteristics of the tow languag
27、es. If we did so, we can improve our study efficiency. In China, so many linguists do lots of study on contrastive study, and base on their study, I do a literature review on contrastive study between English and Chinese before I write my paper, this literature review includes:1) The definition of c
28、ontrastive study 2) The process of the development of contrastive study in China I want to use this literature review show the development of contrastive study, I hope more and more English learners would realize the significance of Contrastive study2.1 The Definition Of Contrastive StudyThe famous
29、linguist Lv Shuxiang said, “Contrastive study means paying attention to the differences between English and Chinese”Mr Xu Yulong made a definition of Contrastive study like this: Contrastive study is a branch of Contrastive linguistics, the purpose is to analyze and compare the two languages, to des
30、cribe the differences and the common ground, especially their differences, and use this series of theory to solve problems in other fields. Contrastive study is a branch of linguistics, it has the characteristics of theoretical linguistics and applied linguistics, the main task is to do comparative
31、study, to describe and explain the differences between English and Chinese, and to use this series of theory to solve problems in other fields.2.2 The Process of the Development of Contrastive Study in ChinaThe theory of Contrastive study was established in China after 1990s. Before the contrastive
32、English, there was another theory Chinese Cultural Linguistics, the researchers advocated to put the analysis of vocabulary into the cultural background to analyze the vocabularys cultural function. Analysis of Chinese Cultural Linguistics was a foundation to the contrastive English in China. The fa
33、mous linguists, Lu Shuxiang, Xu Yulong, Yang Zijian, Pan Wenguo etc, has always called on to do some research on contrastive English from a macro view.Although the famous linguists, Zhao Yuanren, Wang Li and Lu Shuxiang, Gao Mingkai etc, has always call on English learners to use the contrastive stu
34、dy method, but in china, the term contrast analysis ,was regarded as a academic term after 1970s. Mr. Lu Shuxiang is the balance to actively advocates research and practitioner. Mr Lu Shuxiang S view on the research of contrastive study: 1)Contrastive study is analysis of errors and explain errors;
35、2) We should do the research of contrastive study from the concept (or category ) set out in a language; 3) By contrast, the ultimate aim is to explain the differences of the two languages. Mr Lu shuxiangs view on contrastive study is a significant direction for our words semantic research : First,
36、the contrast of vocabulary should pay attention to the culture of semantic and realism, thus reaching for the purpose of second language acquisition, and also should pay attention to the explanation which is associated with the collision and vacancy phenomenon; Second, we should do the contrast of w
37、ord cultural semantic from the concept of(or category ) set out in a language;3) We must focus the ultimate aim of contrastive study is research their national culture and philosophic thinking. More and more Chinese people concern contrastive study in 1990s. In 1992, professor Xu Yulongs book Contra
38、st Linguistics Overview was published. Contrastive study became an independent subject in China. Mr Xu definited contrastive study like this: Contrastive study is a branch of Contrastive linguistics, the purpose is to analyze and compare the two languages, to describe the differences and the common
39、ground, especially their differences, and use this series of theory to solve problems in other fields. Compare Xus definition with the western linguists James and Fisiaks definition, Mr Xus definition has the following progressive significance:1) It is clear that the properties of contrastive lingui
40、stics is a branch of linguistics, it no longer belongs to applied linguistics , Mr Xu thinks contrastive linguistics includes theory of contrastive linguistics and applied linguistics, thus adding theoretical color to contrastive English; 2)On the analysis of contrastive study, Xus definition emphas
41、izes the common ground of the two languages, the importance of the contrast is their differences;3)The researching method is focus on the description of their differences; 4)To use the results to solve the problems in other fields.2 In 1994, Professor Yang Zijian Professor revised Professor Xu YuLon
42、gS definition of contrastive linguistics. He said, the contrastive linguistics is a branch of linguistics, it has the characteristics of theoretical linguistics and applied linguistics, the main task is to do comparative study, to describe and explain the differences between English and Chinese, and
43、 use this series of theory to solve problems in other fields. The definition determines the nature of contrastive linguistics and target, thus promoting the development of contrastive study in China. In 1990s, the linguists in China made great progress of contrastive study, Liu Biqin, Xu YuLong, Yan
44、g Zijian, Pan Wenguo etc. have written lots of books to explain their views of contrastive English. The Chinese Association of Contrastive English have made great contribution to the establishment of contrastive English linguistics under the leadership of professors Liu Chongde and Yang Zijian. The
45、contrastive English linguistics books that were published in the early 1990s all engage in the research of contrastive study in the aspect of theory and application, and analyze the theoretic and practical value of the contrastive research on English and Chinese. Professor Xu Yulongs new published b
46、ook Contrastive Linguistics(2003) highlights that people should use the evidence to carry on the study of contrastive linguistics so that strengthen the reliability and usage of research achievement. After professor Xu, there are seven contrastive linguistics books were published, namely, Lian Suxio
