本研究对高校非英语专业大学新生的超音段音位英语语音知识的习得情况做了调查。调查采用问卷、英语句子听写和访谈三种方式进行。调查结果表明,这批学生对这些知识的了解和掌握很不尽人意,理论知识的缺陷导致了他们英语实际听说能力的不足。 This research investigates the acquisition of the English phonetic knowledge of the students who are non-English majors in college. The survey was conducted in three ways: questionnaire, English dictation and interview. The survey results showed that these students’ understanding and mastery of these knowledge were unsatisfactory, and the defects of theoretical knowledge led to their lack of actual listening and speaking ability in English.
