Chinese is a tonal language,pitch has the function of distinguishing meaning.In the past,scholars used acoustic experiments to analyze Chinese tone acquisition errors of foreign students from Central Asia and Russian backgrounds,but they failed to conduct special research on Uzbek learners.This paper takes Uzbek students as a single object,analyzes their Chinese tone patterns,and discusses whether the stress patterns of Uzbek disyllabic words affect the acquisition of Chinese tone.Finally,it puts forward corresponding teaching strategies for learners' errors.First of all,this paper compares the monosyllabic tone of Uzbek students and Chinese speakers.The experimental results show that in the aspects of tonal value,mode and domain,the acquisition characteristics of four tones are as follows: the acquisition effect of Yinping and Qusheng is better,Yangping is mixed with Shangsheng,and the span of Shangsheng's domain is large;in terms of the mastery of tone feature points,the stability of Yinping and Yangping is not enough,Shangsheng and Qusheng is more stable.Secondly,it compares the disyllabic tone of Uzbek students and Chinese speakers,analyzes the acquisition of Chinese tones from a dynamic perspective.The experimental results show that in the aspect of tonal mode,Yinping and Qusheng are better in the position of front and back words;Yangping is poor in acquisition,unstable in pronunciation,has errors in tone mode and domain,and is easy to mix with Shangsheng,which consistent with the experimental results of monosyllabic tone;when Shangsheng is in the back words,the acquisition of tone mode is better,all of them are concave tone,but there is a weak awareness of tone sandhi,that is,the speakers often replaces the tone sandhi with the original tone.The error is more serious,they fail to grasp the law of the tone sandhi.Generally speaking,the difficulty of acquiring monosyllabic tone is also reflected in the pronunciation of disyllabictone.Thirdly,the paper analyzes the acoustic correlation factors of the stress of Uzbek disyllabic words,compares the manifestation of these factors in Uzbek students and Chinese speakers' neutral-tone words,and judges whether the stress mode of students' mother tongue affects the acquisition of Chinese tone,to refine the problems.The results show that in the stress of Uzbek words,the effect of length is more obvious,followed by the intensity,and the pitch is not the highlight factor;from the perspective of the tone pattern of Uzbek students' Chinese neutral-tone words,influenced by the stress patterns of mother tongue,it also shows the strong sound and long duration of the latter words.This paper argues that the negative transfer of foreign students' mother tongue,the difficulty of Chinese tone and the teachers' tolerance of errors are the reasons for the tone errors.The corresponding teaching suggestions include mastering the differences in the characteristics of different tones,properly prolonging the waiting time for teachers' questions and practicing different syllables with different tones,etc.
