8 Word Recognition and Sentence Comprehension in Background Noise by Students Learning Chinese as a Second Language Zhang Linjun Abstract This study examines the effects that background noise may have on the comprehension of Chinese speech by students learning Chinese as a second / foreign language. The results show that while word recognition and sentence comprehension are affected by both proficiency in Chinese and signal-to-noise ratios learners performances differ to some extent in the two tasks. Furthermore both word recognition and sentence comprehension correlate positively with lexical tone recognition no matter whether in quiet or in background noise conditions. On the basis of such findings we propose that more classroom activities should be designed to simulate real communication situations and improve learners ability of tone recognition so that they can better comprehend Chinese speech in background noise.
