1.Background of the Study
标准的英语发音可以让演讲者的演讲和说服,对话者优雅与标准的发音感到轻松和方便他们了解彼此。在大学英语系课程,英文发音的能力总是发现在英语口语练习。在小学阶段,学生们应该给短谈论熟悉的话题后加一些词汇、语法规则,和一些知识对于英语发音。先进水平,学生应该流利、正确地讨论通用或专业话题,成功处理冗长且复杂的对话和文本,准确表达观点在学术交流会议或国际会议(moe中华人民共和国,2017)。这样的能力上面提到的应该是基于StandardEnglish发音。Standard English pronunciation can make speakers' speeches elegant and convincing,and interlocutors with standard pronunciation find it easy and convenient for them tounderstand each other. In the curriculum for college English majors, the competence ofEnglish pronunciation is always found in oral English practice. At the elementary level,students should give short talk about familiar topics after they have leamt some vocabulary,grammar rules, and some knowledge about English pronunciation. At the advanced level,students should fluently and correctly discuss about general or professional topics,successfully dealing with lengthy and complicated conversations and texts, preciselyexpress viewpoints at academic communication meeting or international conferences(MOE-PRC, 2017). Such competence mentioned above should be based on StandardEnglish pronunciation.
But, some college English majors have difficulties in pronouncing English properly.Even though they can spell considerable English vocabulary and make sentences accordingto different patterns, they are still not so successful in communicating with native Englishspeakers or other learners of English* Their English pronunciation is more or less differentfrom standard which sometimes lead to misunderstanding. Occasionally they are laughedby their classmates, which makes them feel discouraged. They would shut their mouthrather than take the risk of being humiliated. Teachers can find many pronunciation errorsin oral English tests and English speech contests, which reveals some problems with English pronunciation teaching. So it is necessary to analyze college English majors'pronunciation errors and figure out some solving strategies accordingly.
First of all，people can achieve successful communication in English by expressingone's mind with standard utterance of carefully-chosen words. Misunderstanding amonginterlocutors is often caused by poor English pronunciation.
