A large number of domestic research about convergence, but the method used to connect words to corpora special contrast, quantitative studies are rare, researchers have mainly Luo a, 2 (P59-62), Zhao Wei Bin, 3 (P72-76) Pan Fan 4 (P157-162) and Mo Tsang. 5 (P45-50) v
9、iew of the above studies can be found: first, to similar or the same group for the study, the findings do not coincide. Most scholars believe that, relative to the native author, the Chinese learners in general there is too much tendency to connect words with English, Chinese learners have found tha
