Abstract 摘要
Though contrastive analysis (CA) no longer has any role to play in the field of second language acquisition, it has been quietly, abundantly and to me appropriately employed in second/foreign language instruction. This segment of my talks will be a call for the legitimised return of CA, especially its weak version, in language education, where its role can be defined in terms of the instructors' recognition of transfer/interference, error correction, and in the design of pedagogical grammar. In the last mentioned, we shall, in this talk, apply CA to define a scale of "difficult-ness" of syntactic structures. Specifically, we propose the following hypotheses.
Hypothesis One: Inter-linguistic distance in syntactic structures contributes to difficultness.
Situation 1: L1 has a syntactic structure and L2 has an equivalent
Situation 2: L1 has a syntactic structure but L2 ha no equivalent
Situation 3: L2 has a syntactic structure but L1 has no equivalent
Hypothesis Two: Inter-linguistic distance in semantic structures contributes to difficultness.
Situation 4: L1 has a semantic structure and L2 has an equivalent
Situation 5: L1 has a semantic structure but L2 ha no equivalent
Situation 6: L2 has a semantic structure but L1 has no equivalent
Situations 1-6 define a scale of difficultness that can be applied in structural sequencing. Each situation will be amply illustrated with structures from English and Putonghua.
