2.2 Theoretical Basis
2.2.1 Error Analysis Theory
Error analysis theory is a relatively important field of applied linguistics research.By analyzing and studying the errors made by the subjects in learning, andsummarizing the reasons for the mistakes, finding common mistakes, and helpingthem to correct in the teaching process, this theory can finally found an efficientlearning method. Error analysis theory is also often used in oral English teaching.Yu Liming (2004) believes that compared with written language, spoken language is aproductive skill that requires the speaker to respond to dialogue in a timely mannerunder the stimulation of external sounds or other information sources. After theinternal language stage, a deep syntactic structure is formed, and then expanded intoan external language based on the surface structure.The immediacy and accuracy oforal expression are a huge test for the speaker's oral ability, knowledge reserve andliterary accomplishment. So in the process of learning English, the oral part is themost indispensable and also the most difficult part to master.
Corder (1967) pointed out that error analysis generally has five steps: The firststep is to collect learners' error samples, the second step is to identify errors, the thirdstep is to classify the errors, the fourth step is to explain the reasons, and the fifth stepis to analyze and evaluate the errors. Due to the different sources of errors, they aredivided into inter-lingual errors and intra-lingual errors. Errors caused by learners'misuse of native language features are called inter-lingual errors, and errors made inthe target language are called intra-lingual errors. Most of the mistakes made bysecond language learners are typical language development errors which areintra-lingual errors. These errors are not all due to language transfer but are caused byinsufficient learning.

Validity Analysis of Native Speakers Recording Date
Taking five native speakers as the subject, the researchers used the Praat softwareto manually label the voices of the native speakers one by one. Then researchersobtained the entire chapter and the specific words of the duration, pitch, and intensity,a total of 42 variables. Based on 42 variables, SPSS correlation analysis was used tomeasure the consistency of the five native speakers. If the degree of consistency ishigh, it indicates that the researcher is efficient in sorting out the speech corpus.
Table-4-1 was demonstrated the correlation comparison of five native speakers. Itshows a correlation coefficient of the five native speakers was between 0.913 and0.998, ps <0.001, which was a strong correlation.
