【摘要】 AS是一个在英语写作与日常交流中的常用词汇,AS可以用作从属连词引导时间,原因,和让步状语从句,又可以用作副词,常被用于AS...AS...这一句型中。除此之外, AS还有介词的词性,后接名词或名词短语。由于AS一词的词性多样,句法结构也很复杂,作者认为有必要对它进行全面细致的研究。本文应用Hoey提出的词汇触发理论对中国英语学习者语料库(CLEC)中的AS一词展开研究,作者按照AS的3个词性进行检索,并对连词AS,副词AS和介词AS的高频类连结与高频搭配进行总结,与英语国家语料库(BNC)中的数据进行对比,进而对中国英语学习者AS一词的词汇触发特点进行描述,调查发现中国学生对该词的触发模式不同于英语本族人。英国国家语料库(BNC)显示,与中国学生相比,英语本族人使用该词更为频繁,且在语义搭配、语法建构和语用功能等方面表现出较大的自由度和多样性。
【Abstract】 The word AS is one of the most frequently used word in English writing and daily communication. However, due to its complexity in part of speech, many Chinese learners of English see it as one of the most confusing words in English acquisition. It can function as a subordinate conjunction followed by clauses of time, reason and concession, and it can be used as adverb, usually in AS…AS…pattern. When used as a preposition,it can collocate with nouns and nominal phrases.Because of the complicated grammatical roles the word plays in English discourse construction,it seems necessary to explore the word in detail.The present study investigates into the statistical evidence of the multi functional word AS in light of the priming theory proposed by Hoey. The author respectively explores the high frequency colligations and collocations of conjunction AS, adverb AS and preposition AS in Chinese Learner English Corpus (CLEC), and then makes comparison with the data in British National Corpus (BNC),and finally generalizes the of priming features of the word AS in CLEC. The results show that the lexical priming of word AS found in CLEC not identical with those of native speakers of English. Statistics from BNC proves that native speakers are primed to use the word AS more frequently, and with more varieties in semantic collocation, grammatical construction, and pragmatic function.
