Scope adverbs are a relatively closed branch of adverbs.Although the number is relatively small,the internal members have common characteristics and outstanding features.The usage is flexible and complicated and easy to be confused.Chinese learners often make mistakes in the process of using.In recent years,it has become a hot topic in the field of Chinese studies.This article uses the "New Chinese Proficiency Test Outline" as the basis for word selection,and uses the HSK dynamic composition corpus as the main corpus source to collect,sort,and analyze the use cases of Chinese learner scope adverbs.Finally,through analyzing the corpus,we explore the reasons for the errors and propose corresponding strategies.This article divides the research contents into four parts.The first part is the introduction.The introduction introduces the origin,significance and related research developments of the topic.The research found that scholars’ research results on range adverbs have emerged endlessly in recent years.The focus of attention has shifted from basic issues such as the definition,nature,and classification of adverbs to monograph research and comparative research New research perspectives,such as,semantic orientation,and bias analysis.However,in general,the quantity and quality of teaching Chinese as a foreign language is still lower than ontological research.The research on the error of scope adverbs has only focused on the high-frequency "du","full","only" and "light".The overall research on scope adverbs based on the "New Chinese Proficiency Outline" is very limited.Therefore,this article is based on the "New Chinese Proficiency Test Syllabus" and the frequency of use of international students to determine 19 research objects in this article:general range adverbs(all,all,all,all,all,uniform,uniform);statistical range adverbs(Total,roughly,but,at least,at most,more than that;adverbs of limited scope(just,only,only,light,only,single).The second part is the grammatical analysis of scope adverbs in Chapter 1.On the basis of previous studies,this chapter uses the method of combining commonality and personality to sort out the usage of 19 range adverbs in semantics and grammar and the common usage of similar range adverbs.The third part is the error analysis of Chapter 2,which is also the main part of this article.This chapter uses the HSK dynamic composition corpus as the corpus source,collects the use cases of range adverbs,analyzes them quantitatively,and calculates the use of range adverbs by foreign students,the correct rate and the error rate.Then,the four types of errors proposed by Mr.Lu Jianzheng are used to classify and analyze the collected corpora,which are the four types of misuse,misapplication,misgeneration,and misordering.The largest number of misunderstandings is the total number of errors,and it is a mistake and a bias.Through analysis,we can conclude that there are both high usage rate and low error rate in each category of words,and high usage rate and high error rate.There are both low usage rate and low error rate,and low usage rate and high error rate.These high-use or high-error rates indicate that learners are unavoidable in daily life,and students have inaccurate usage of the words,which needs to attract the attention of the teaching staff.Therefore,we use "all" in the comprehensive range adverbs with high usage rate and low error rate,"at least" in the statistical range adverbs,and "only" in the limited range adverbs;the generalization with high usage rate and high error rate "Full" of range adverbs,"total" of statistical range adverbs,"just" of limited range adverbs;"all" of comprehensive range adverbs with low usage but high error rates,and "not only" of statistical range adverbs The "single" of the limited range adverbs is analyzed in detail,and some suggestions for classroom teaching are put forward.The fourth part is the third and fourth chapters,that is,the analysis of the cause of errors and some suggestions.The third chapter analyzes the causes of errors based on the analysis of the errors from the following aspects:the characteristics of the scope adverbs,the language points and the arrangement of the exercises in the textbooks,the negative transfer of the learner’s mother tongue,and the excessive rules of the target language Generalization,etc.Chapter four puts forward corresponding teaching suggestions from three aspects:teachers,textbooks and students according to the causes of errors:on the teacher’s side:first,we must enrich the relevant knowledge reserve,and secondly,we must master the teaching methods:1.attach importance to the adverbs of the same type and their synonyms Discrimination.2.Use the concept of "prefabricated chunks" to explain and train the linear arrangement of range adverbs and other components using fixed collocation and formulas.3.Create a pragmatic environment and strengthen pragmatic teaching.In terms of teaching materials:1.Describe language points as thoroughly as possible.2.Strive for diverse and effective problem sets.On the student side:1.Improve self-regulation ability and enhance self-learning awareness.2.Strengthen intra-lingual and inter-lingual comparisons and improve language learning ability.3.Learn more,practice and apply what you have learned,and improve your language communication skills.The fifth part is the conclusion.Summarize the full text of the study.
