早期口語習得研究假設被動句的賓語通過“論元移位“ (A-movement) 移到主語位置。Huang (1999)和 Tang (2000, 2001) 認為粤語被動句和漢語被動句類似，都通過空運算元移位形成，即空運算元通過“非論元移位“(A’-movement) 從內嵌 VP的賓語位置移到時態短語(TP)指定語的位置。經過謂語化後，這個空語類受主語約束。 / 漢語被動句習得研究顯示兒童較遲獲得長被動句 (Chang, 1986; Xu and Yang, 2008; Liu and Ning, 2009)。粤語表被動的「畀」存在一詞多義形式，除了表示被動，還有表示給予的「畀」，表示與格的「畀」，以及表示允許的「畀」。Wong (2004) 發現表被動的「畀」最難習得。 / 本研究從普遍語法 (UG)的角度來考察粤語「畀」字被動句的獲得情況，旨在探討聾童如何習得粤語「畀」字被動句，他們是否經歷與健聽兒童相似的習得過程。同時，進一步研究聾童是否掌握粤語「畀」字被動句內部的語法關係，包括基本的句法語序，內嵌使役結構的有終結性“telic“，以及空運算元和主句主語的約束關係。本研究採用了三種實驗方法：圖片選擇、圖片描述，以及圖片判斷。參與此項研究的被試有 18名 7;03至 12;06之間的聾童，40名 3;03至 7;05之間的健聽兒童，以及作為控制組的 20名健聽成人。 / 圖片選擇和圖片描述實驗的結果表明聾童和健聽兒童在粤語「畀」字被動句的發展中經歷了相似的習得過程。他們表達含光杆動詞的被動句沒有什麼困難。光杆動詞，比如“踢“，若自身帶有“終結體“(+telic) 的特徵，在粤語被動句中是合語法的。但是，當需要使用動補複合動詞 (RVC) 來表達一個事件的有終結性特徵時，聾童與健聽兒童的表現則不同。聾童很難以這種有終結性的特徵解讀這個內嵌的使役結構。取而代之，他們保留用光杆動詞結構來表達單單一個動作或一個結果。亦有不少聾童使用兩個連接的短語，以前一個表達動作，後一個表達結果。圖片判斷實驗的結果顯示，隨著“語言接收年齡“(receptive language age) 的提高，聾童對可加強被動義的標記「親」(-can1)意識也逐漸提高。在「畀」字句中，含被動義的標記「親」用於限制: (a) 句子在表允許和表被動的歧義，使句子解讀為被動義; (b) 主句主語和內嵌賓語的約束關係。 / 為深入瞭解聾童「畀」字被動句的獲得，本研究同時考察了他們能否區別「畀」字的一詞多義形式及其相應的句法結構，包括表給予的「畀」和表允許的「畀」。研究結果顯示「畀」字被動句帶有兩個小句，且含空運算元移位，這給聾童被動句的習得造成了極大的困難。儘管表允許的「畀」也帶有兩個小句，含賓語控制結構，相對而言仍比被動句容易習得。表給予的「畀」為單句，我們假設應發展得較早，但是在本研究中卻發現比表允許的「畀」更遲習得。事實上，聾童在產出粤語 IDOC (即 [N bei2 DO IO], DO 代表直接賓語而 IO代表間接賓語) 語序時有困難，可是卻會採用漢語語法的語序 DOC (即 [N bei2 IO DO])。我們認為這可能是漢語書面語的輸入對聾童更為“可接收 （accessible）所致；相比之下，由於聽力受損，他們通過聽覺接收的粤語口語輸入卻受到了限制。 / Earlier acquisition studies of passives in spoken languages assume A-movement of the object to the subject position. Huang (1999) and Tang (2000, 2001) claim that Cantonese passives, similar to Mandarin passives, involve null operator movement from the object position of the embedded VP via A’movement to the specifier position of the intermediate TP. This null category is then bound by a base-generated subject through predication. / Acquisition studies of Mandarin passives show that children acquire long passives late (Chang, 1986; Xu and Yang, 2008; Liu and Ning, 2009). As for Cantonese, Wong (2004) found that passive bei2 is most difficult among the different polysemous bei2, namely transfer bei2 ‘give’, dative bei2, and permissive bei2 ‘let’. / In the current study, we approach the acquisition of Cantonese passive bei2 from a UG perspective. We aim to see how deaf children acquire passive bei2, whether they go through a similar acquisition process as their typical hearing counterparts. We also want to see if they have developed knowledge about the grammatical relations involved with passive bei2, namely the basic syntactic order, the telicity encoded in the embedded causative structure, and the binding relationship between the null operator and the matrix subject. Three experimental procedures were developed: a picture selection task, a picture description task and a picture verification task. 18 deaf children (7;03-12;06), 40 younger hearing children (3;03-7;05) and 20 hearing adults as controls participated in this study. / The results in the picture selection and the picture description task show that the deaf children and the hearing children went through a similar acquisition process in the development of passive bei2. They did not seem to encounter difficulty in producing passives bei2 involving a bare verb which is inherently +telic such as ‘kick’, which is acceptable in Cantonese. However, when coming to using a resultative verb compound (RVC) to encode the +telic aspect of the eventuality, the deaf subjects’ performance differed from the hearing subjects in demonstrating difficulty in encoding a telic causative event structure. Instead, they maintained a bare verb structure to encode either an activity or a result. A number of deaf children also used two conjoined phrases, with the first encoding an activity and the second a result. The results of the picture verification task show that as a function of receptive language age, the deaf children in our study were sensitive to the presence of the adversative marker -can1, which is used to restrict (a) the interpretation of an ambiguous permissive/passive sentence to a passive reading, and (b) the binding relation between the matrix subject and the embedded object involved. / To deepen our understanding of deaf children’s acquisition of passive bei2, part of the project is to examine if they could identify the other polysemous bei2s, including transfer bei2 and permissive bei2 as they involve different linguistic structures. The results show that passive bei2 which requires a biclausal structure plus null operator movement poses as the most difficult construction to be acquired by deaf children. Although permissive bei2 also invokes a biclausal structure with object control, it is relatively easier than passive bei2. Unexpectedly, transfer bei2 is found to be more difficult than permissive bei2 although the structure is monoclausal and assumed to be developmentally early in typically developed children. In fact, the deaf subjects have experienced difficulty in producing the IDOC order (i.e. [N bei2 DO IO], where DO represents Direct Object and IO represents Indirect Object), a required word order in Cantonese; instead, they resorted to the DOC (i.e. [N bei2 IO DO]) order which reflects the Mandarin grammar.

The policy on “Teaching English through English” has been proposed by the Hong Kong Government for decades. However, teachers find it difficult to follow the policy and the use of Cantonese is necessary due to the realistic need of students. The present study aims to investigate the patterns and functions of the use of Cantonese in English lessons, and to examine English teachers’ and students’ views towards the use of Cantonese in English classroom. This study involved three S4 teachers and twelve students from their classes. Data was collected through audio recording of lessons and interviews with teacher and student participants. The results show that Cantonese was widely used for teaching vocabulary, explaining relatively complicated tasks and classroom management. Teachers seldom reverted to the target language once they have switched to Cantonese. Both the teacher and student participants believed that the use of Cantonese could facilitate the teaching and learning of grammar and vocabulary. Also, it was effective in maintaining classroom discipline, enhancing communication within the classroom, and creating a conducive learning environment. Despite the perceived pedagogical value of Cantonese in English classroom, findings suggest that teachers tended to use Cantonese as a time-saving device rather than a facilitative teaching tool, and the potential pedagogical functions of using Cantonese in English classroom were not fully utilized because of the teachers’ lack of strategic planning when using it. It is important for English teachers to reflect on their language choice, and to develop an awareness of using Cantonese effectively to facilitate students’ learning of English. / published_or_final_version / Applied English Studies / Master / Master of Arts in Applied Linguistics

Instructional congruence (IC) is a conceptual framework which emphasizes that the linguistic and cultural problems of ethnic minority students are to be addressed in order to enhance their learning. IC has been developed and implemented during the most recent two decades, and adopted and recognized for its improvement on student motivation and academic performance in many countries. In Hong Kong, there are designated schools which specifically cater to ethnic minority students. In this study, three science teachers in a designated school have been evaluated on their awareness of IC in teaching ethnic minority students. However, none of the three teachers have received any professional training on teaching ethnic minority students. Through classroom observations and interviews with teacher-respondents, the results show that they have scant knowledge on catering to the different linguistics and culturally diversified problems of ethnic minority students. Although one of the teachers has some knowledge which allowed the consideration of student literacy development and application of cultural relevance in the instructional curriculum, his practices are not systematic and effective, which means that they fall far from the proposed IC practices. Educators and policymakers are strongly recommended to promote and adopt the IC framework in Hong Kong. If the implementation of IC in Hong Kong as a means to address the needs of ethnic minority students is familiarized and acknowledged, IC would very likely improve their academic achievements and provide them with equal opportunities in education. / published_or_final_version / Education / Master / Master of Education
