摘　　要：It has been commonly recognized by the academic community that Chinese English learners can be regarded as the trilingual learners in dialects,Mandarin,and then English.Thus the first two acquired languages seem to be unavoidable to result in some effects on the study of English,especially the prosody of English.At the same time,the fact that the English prosodic research has been a significant project in the linguistic study with the globalization and localization of English,draws the public’s attention to the further study of the prosody of English for which is of vital importance in English learning.Focusing on the intonation,stress,tone,pause,and so on,prosody is the fundamental element of speech and the core of English phonetics.Taking Shandong dialect as an example,the study investigates the influence of the dialects on the learning of English prosody from two aspects—intonation and stress,by the acoustic analysis and comparison of the English prosody of linguistic data from Shandong EFL learners and English native speakers based on IViE(Intonational Variation in English)and ToBI(Tone and Breaks Indices)systems using Praat software.In addition,the reasons why these effects and problems take place are discussed profoundly.Therefore the corresponding measures should be taken in order to help students eliminate the negative impacts of their dialects and deliver standard English.The study may have great references on the improvement and elevation of teaching methods on the dialectal regions and some implications on second language acquisition.
