【摘要】 语料库研究由来已久,但针对基础英语教材的研究却不多。国内外大型语料库虽然可及,但其具体应用、数据类型以及数据规模往往无法满足研究者的个性化需求,因此建立个性化的小型语料库很有必要。本文就语料库在基础英语教学中的应用,尤其是文化和词汇教学,做了尝试性的研究,将人教07版高中英语全套教材制作成可任意编辑处理的原始语料,并通过专门的语料处理软件分析相关数据,进而对高中英语教材中的词汇进行多层面、全方位的研究,旨在摸索一种高中英语教学的新模式。文章通过基于语料库的高中英语研究,主要探讨文化教学的意义,阐明了语料库在文化教学中的优势,详细论述了词频统计、索引和搭配在文化教学和学习中的实际应用,以便提高基础阶段英语文化教学的效果。但基于语料库并聚焦于文化教学的研究和实践目前并不多见,因此本研究还有很多不足留待后续研究。
【Abstract】 Studies on linguistic corpus have been around for quite some time, but corpus-based researches aimed at Basic English textbooks are scan and scarce. Although large-scale corpus-based resources are available both at home and abroad, they are not so convenient to put into operation in terms of their special application, data types and particular sizes for particular purposes, thus failing to meet the individual demands of researchers and learners alike. It is highly necessary, therefore, to set up moderate individualized corpora for specific purposes.This paper is a tentative study on the application of corpus-based resources in Basic English teaching, especially in culture teaching. For this purpose, the whole set of senior high school English textbooks published by People’s Education Press in2007are transformed into a database with the aid of specialized software and the database can be readily employed to comprehensively explore the vocabulary in the above-mentioned senior high school English textbooks at different levels, which will contribute to a new mode of English teaching in high schools. This kind of corpus-based English teaching and learning in senior high schools is concerned mainly with the significance of culture teaching, highlighting the advantages of corpus-based resources in such teaching and learning, including word frequency statistics, indexes and collocations in the teaching and learning process. It is hoped that corpus-based culture teaching in Basic English will be made more effective with the help of the database. Since research on and practice in corpus-based culture teaching are still scan and scarce at present, the present study leaves much to improve in future studies.
