国内大学日语专业很少开设语音课程， 在零起点入门阶段往往用 2— 4 周时间完成以单音为主的发音学习，因课时所限无法进行高低强弱、 节拍、 停顿、 语调等韵律方面的训练。而韵律被认为是影响日语语音语调是否自然流畅的一个重要因素。本研究利用课外时间进行了为期 3 个月的跟读法训练， 以期解决学生的韵律问题。通过教师听觉评价和语音分析软件这两种主客观相结合的方法， 证明在音拍、 声调、 句末文末语调、 句子整体语调等方面训练后错误率减少，实验表明跟读法对改善学生的韵律问题有一定的作用。本研究成果可为现有的音声教育提供借鉴， 亦为学生在自主学习中自行改善韵律问题提供了一种新的可能性。

Phonetic courses are not commonly provided for Japanese majors in Chinese universities． Pronunciation practice mainly concerning individual phonemes usually takes 2- 4 weeks at the beginning of Japanese learning． The prosody training involving pitch， mora， pause and intonation is absent due to limited courses． However， prosody is regarded as one of the important factors marking naturalness and fluency of Japanese pronunciation and intonation． The present study， based on an experiment conducted in off-class time and focusing on“shadowing”practice for three months， proves that students after the practice make less mistakes in mora， tone， intonation at the end of a sentence or text， and overall intonation by combining subjective teacher's listening assessment and objective phonetic analysis software． It is thus concluded that“shadowing”practice has exerted a strong influence on the phonetics and intonation improvement of the students and provides new possibility for students to improve their prosody performance in their self-study．
