    2016 2nd International Conference on Education Science and Human Development (ESHD 2016) ISBN: 978-1-60595-405-9 Negative Transfer of Anhui Dialects to English Pronunciation— Case Study in Anhui Agricultural University Wei-Xuan SHI 1,a, Chun-Ming ZHANG 2,b 1,2 North China Electric Power University, Baoding, Hebei Province, China [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: Anhui dialects, English pronunciation, Negative transfer. Abstract. In this paper, Anhui Agricultural University is taken as an example to study how Anhui dialects influence the English pronunciation of students. The different pronunciation characteristics of Anhui dialects are collected and summarized in this paper. A phonetic test based on the international phonetics is comprehensively designed for the collection of students’ pronunciation. Through contrasts and analysis, the specific influences that Anhui dialects exert on students are discovered, which will help a lot in the improvement of student’s pronunciation. Relevant Studies about the Influence of Chinese on English Pronunciation Language variety is the basic unit studying language in sociolinguistics. The British linguist R.A. Hudson defines language variety as a set of linguistic items with similar to social distribution [1]. This set of linguistic items can be the whole phonetics, grammar and lexical system, and also the component or rule of certain word or grammar [2]. Dialect is the branch and variety of a language and can be divided into regional dialect and social dialect [3]. From 1930s to 1940s, scholars in China, such as Zhao Yuanren, had already started the comparison of Chinese and English phonetics, from then on, Chinese and English phonetics difference became an important field in contrastive study of Chinese and English.

  • Provenance of the Zhou Dynasty Bronze Vessels Unearthed from Zongyang County, Anhui Province, China: Determined by Lead Isotopes and Trace Elements

Page 1/20 Abstract Thirteen Zhou Dynasty bronze vessels and two slags from Zongyang County along the north bank of the Yangtze River in Anhui were analyzed by LA-MC-ICP-MS and EDXRF. The results of the lead isotope analysis showed that there were two kinds of lead materials in the Zongyang bronzes. Class which could have originated from the Wannan region were mainly used in the Western Zhou and the following Spring and Autumn periods; while Class , possibly from the local mines in Zongyang County, were mainly present in the Warring States period. Such a shift in the ore material sources is also revealed by the analysis of the trace elements of the Zongyang bronzes. With reference to relevant historical documents, it can be inferred that the transformation of the bronze material sources could be related to the changes of the political situation during the Zhou Dynasty.

ESEs can be divided into 3 groups according to the geographical coverage of snowfall, using the following criteria to define an ESE: >15 snowfall days, 20 snow-cover/icing days, and 30 cm total cumulated snow depth for an individual winter. The first group covers the whole of Eastern China (East of 105° E), and ESEs occurred in 1654, 1660, 1665, 1670, 1676, 1683, 1689, 1690, 1700, 1714, 1719, 1830−32, 1840, 1877 and 1892; the second group is located mainly in the area south of Huaihe River (~33° N), and ESEs occured in 1694, 1887, 1929, and 1930; and the third group is confined within the central region between Yellow River and Nanling Mountain (roughly 26° to 35° N), and ESEs occurred in 1578, 1620, 1796, and 1841.
