1. Introduction
With the development of science and technology and the frequent global exchange at home and abroad, dialects would unlikely to satisfy the increasing need of communication. As a basis of communication, oral English is an important part of language. Every language has its particular pronunciation rules. People who learn the second language will inevitably be affected or disturbed by the pronunciation habit of native language, so do our Chinese. Chinese and English belong to two different language systems: Sino-Tibetan family and the Indo-European family. The differences between Chinese and English in pronunciation produce obvious language interference or transfer when Chinese students learn English. In the case of spoken language, positive transfer occurs when the pronunciation of Chinese and English are similar. Therefore, we should pay much attention to the pronunciation of standard Chinese, which helps to master the correct pronunciation and to have a positive transfer between Mandarin and English. Now that the close relationship between mandarin and oral English, this thesis is on the basis of language transfer theory to analyze the positive transfer between mandarin and oral English.
