Monosyllabic Verb "Zhao" And "Xunzhao" Bias Investigate

Based on the BCC corpus of Beijing Language and Culture University,this paper takes"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"as the research object to investigate the similarities and differences between them from four aspects:syntax,semantics,pragmatics and prosody.At the same time,based on the global Chinese interlanguage corpus,this paper investigates the errors of"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)",analyzes the reasons for the errors and puts forward teaching suggestions.The main conclusions of this paper are as follows.In terms of syntax,both"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"can serve as predicates with objects,but when they are matched with objects,"Zhao(找)"can be followed by concurrent phrase,while"Xunzhao(寻找)"can not."Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"with complement,"Zhao(找)"with complement ability is stronger than"Xunzhao(寻找)";"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"can overlap,indicating less momentum,but"Xunzhao(寻找)"overlap is far less than"Zhao(找)","Zhao(找)"has a special form of overlap,can enter the"Xbu(不)X","Xyi(一)X","Xlai(来)Xqu(去)"and other formats,"Xunzhao(寻找)"does not;In the selection of special structure,"Zhao(找)"can appear in copy structure,but"Xunzhao(寻找)"generally cannot.In the contrast of fixed collocation,"Zhao(找)"can be used in the result of the fixed structure,can also form common four-word phrases,such as"nothing looking for trouble","Xunzhao(寻找)"can not;"Xunzhao(寻找)"can be combined with the single and two-syllable locational words"after","before","later",etc.,to form the azimuth phrase,but"Xunzhao(寻找)"generally cannot be used.In terms of semantics,both"Xun(寻)"and"Zhao(寻找)"have the meaning of"seeking".In the comparison of semantic roles,the subject of action behavior of"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"is mainly"people",the object of action behavior relation of"Zhao(找)"is mainly"concrete things",and the object of action behavior relation of"Xunzhao(寻找)"is mainly"abstract things".In terms of pragmatically,from the perspective of style,the spoken color of"Zhao(找)"is stronger than"Xunzhao(寻找)";In the choice of sentence categories,both"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"can appear in declarative sentences,interrogative sentences,imperative sentences,exclamatory sentences,but the frequency of occurrence is different."Zhao(找)"can be used in positive and negative questions,while"Xunzhao(寻找)"cannot.In terms of prosody,both"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"can carry monosyllabic objects,and disyllabic objects,but"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"are limited in collocation with monosyllabic objects,and in most cases they are paired with monosyllabic personal pronouns.Based on the global Chinese interlanguage corpus,we investigate the errors of"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)",and find that the error rate of"Zhao(找)"is12.4%,and that of"Xunzhao(寻找)"is 13%.In order of frequency,the errors of Chinese learners can be ranked as follows:omission>missubstitution>misaddition>misorder.In addition,Chinese learners often have miscollocation errors,which we speculate is related to learners’failure to grasp the syntactic structure of words.There are four main reasons for the errors of Chinese learners in the process of"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)":first,the negative transfer of mother tongue;Second,the influence of generalization of target language rules;Third,the influence of learning strategies and communicative strategies;Fourth,the influence of teachers and textbooks.Based on the comparative analysis of"Zhao(找)"and"Xunzhao(寻找)"and the errors of Chinese learners,this paper puts forward some teaching suggestions in order to improve the teaching effect of monosyllabic verbs.
