ⅠDefine each of the following concepts and theories: (36 points)

1. IPA refers to the acronym of the International Phonetic Association (1897) whose first title was Phonetic Teachers Association established by a small group of language teachers in France in order to popularize their teaching practice or methods.(2分) It also stands for the International Phonetic Alphabet (the IPA chart) first proposed by the Danish grammarian and phonetician Otto Jesperson in1886, whose first version was published in 1888.(2分)

2.Duality: the structural organization of language into two abstract levels: meaningful units (e.g. words) and meaningless segments (e.g. sounds, letters).(3分) It is one of human language’s design features. (1分)

(本题考查人类语言设计特征的二重性)

3.Vowel glide: vowel that involve a change of quality,(2分) including diphthones, when a single movement of the tongue is made, and triphthones, where a double movement is perceived. (2分)

(本题主要考查滑元音,包括双元音滑元音和三元音滑元音)

4. Complementary distribution: when two sounds never occur to the same environment, they are in complementary distribution.(3分) For example, the aspirated English plosives never occur after [s], and unaspirated ones never occur initially. (1分)

(本题考查音位学的互补分布特征的本质)

5.Root refers to the base form of a word that cannot be further analyzed without loss of identity. For example, it is that part of the word which is left when all the affixes are removed.(1分) In the word internationalism, after the removal of inter-, -al, -ism, the part left is the root nation. Apparently, all words contain a root morpheme. And roots can be further classified into free root morpheme and bound root morpheme. (1分)

Stem is any morpheme or combinations of morphemes to which an inflectional affix can be added.(1分) For instance, friend- in friends, and friendship in friendships are both stems. The former shows that a stem may be the same as a root, whereas the latter shows that a stem may contains a root and one, or more than one,

derivational affix. In another word, friendship is a stem, but not a root.(1分) (本题考查词根和词干的定义及其异同)

6. In English the NUMBER lexical items are regular and popular suffix which can be added to the verbs and nouns that distinguish the singular number (one or one group or part), plural form (more than one). In English nouns, we have book/books, pen/pens, hero/heroes, each of the former indicating the singular form (with no suffix or zero suffix), while the latter refers to the plural form, with the suffix (e)s. There are irregular forms in English pronouns, such a I/we, me/us, my/us,so on, indicating the distinction between the singular form and plural form. English verb has present tense the third person singular, for instance,Mary works, Mary teaches French. English verbs also has the irregular, for instance, have/has, am/is/are, which are not large in amount but fixed in usage.(2分)

In Contrast, Chinese has few lexical items to indicate the grammatical category NUMBER, such as students (学生们),children(孩子们),workers (工人们), indicating human beings’ plural forms, or prof essions. This seldom occurs to the nouns referring to non-human things, such as 桌子们,椅子们with the exception that they are used in scientific fiction or children’s fairies. Chinese has singular and plural distinction in pronouns for example, 我/我们, 他/他们,你/你们.In Chinese, we have a few expressions DUAL in terms of units, such as 一双,一副,一对,一套. In contrast, English has only “a pair of”, “a couple” .

There is no distinction in the number of Chinese verbs.(2分)

2 State and interpret the sense relations with examples.

There are three sense relations: sameness relation, oppositeness relation and inclusiveness relation. (4分)

Synonymy is the technical name for the sameness relation. English is rich in synonyms. e.g. buy/purchase; world/universe; wide/broad, autumn/fall. (1分) In Chinese, “父亲”和“爸爸”,“打死”,“搞死”,“整死”,“弄死”,“掐死”,“玩死”and so on, total synonymy is rare. (1分)

Antonymy is the name for oppositeness relation whose three main sub-types are gradable antonymy (old/young; long/short);complementary antonymy (alive/dead, pass/fail, odd/even) and converse antonymy (husband/wife, parent/child, over/under ) (4分)

The notion of inclusiveness can be seen in the following example. The meaning of desk is included in that of furniture. Hyponymy is a matter of class membership.

The upper term in this sense relation, the class name, is called SUPERORDINANT, and the lower terms, the members, hyponyms. Another classical example is, flower/ poeny, tulip, violet, carnation. (2分)

(本题考查词汇学或语义学知识,从同义关系,反义关系和上下义关系三个角度解释了主要意义关系,这里主要解释了词或词组之间的关系;而句子之间的关系也是一种意义关系,只是更加复杂,例如,同义反复关系,e.g. War is war.; 前提关系,矛盾关系,衍推关系等等,更复杂)

ⅣAnswer the following questions and try to elaborate the points indicated in questions with the knowledge you have acquired. (24 points)

Explain the differences between the Chinese and English cultures by illustrating one aspect of life, which is rich in Chinese but limited in English, and vice versa.

Different culture feature—be they environmental, material, or social—produce different linguistic features. (4分) 1) One aspect of life which is rich in Chinese but limited in English is the kinship terms. The kinship field is generally built around the lexical differentiation of three fundamental human family relations:filiations, consanguinity and spouseship. In English different words are used primarily to distinguish the set of kin relations, e.g. “brother” and “sister”, “aunt” and “uncle”, etc., but in Chinese distinction is also made lexically between members of kin who are older or younger than the speaker, or his/her parents, who are on the maternal side or on the paternal side, and who are in-laws or not. Thus, for the English “aunt,” we have in Chinese “gu”(father’s sister), “shen”(wife of father’s younger brother), “bomu”(wife of father’s elder brother), “yimu”(mother’s siter) and “jiuma”(wife of mothers’ brother).(8分)

2) One aspect of life which is rich in English but limited in Chinese is the horse words. (4分) The fact that English boasts a large number of horse words is a ready explanation in the important part horse plays in the life of the English people. Besides the most common word “horse”, there are “gee” (a term for horse used by children), “horseflesh”(ho rse considered as a group, especially for driving, riding, or racing),

“steed” (a spirited horse), “mare”(a young female horse), “foal” (the young offspring of a horse), “colt”(a young male horse), “filly”(a young female horse), “pony” (horse small in size when full grown), “thoroughbred” (a purebred or pedigree horse), and “bay” (a reddish brown horse). (8分)

(本题主要考查中英文化差异,文化学习是外语学习的一个重要课题)

Ⅴ1What are the methods for the addition of new words in the English language?

New words are created through the following processes:

a. Invention. It is a word-formation process related to the developing

economic activities. New lexical items come directly from the consumer items, their producers or their brand names, such as “Coke”, “nylon”, “Kodak” and so on.

b. Blending: It is a relatively complex form of compounding, in which two

words are blended by joining the initial part of the first word and the final part of the second word, or by joining the initial parts of the two words; such as smog (smoke + fog), digicom (digital + computer).

c. Abbreviation: The process of abbreviation refers to that a new word could

be created by cutting the final part, or cutting the initial part, or cutting both the initial and final parts accordingly.

Such as ad, (advertisement), van (caravan) , flu (influenza).

d. Acronym. It is made up from the first letters of the name of an

organization, which has a heavily modified headword, such as WTO, UNESCO.

e. Backformation. It refers to an abnormal type of word-formation where a shorter word is derived by deleting an imagined affix from a longer form already in the language. For example, “edit” is a word generated from “editor.”

f. Analogical creation. Roughly speaking, this process is one whereby words

are created in imitation of other words. For example, the appearance of the word “talkathon” is created on the model of “marathon.”

g. Borrowing. It refers to the fact that Eng1ish has borrowed words from

other language. For example, the word “cancer” and “tumor” were borrowed from Latin.

h. Derivation. New words can be created by the addition of derivational affixes, such as “national”, which is originated from the word “nation”.

i. Compound. It refers to the creation of new words by joining two separate words, such as “ice-cream” and “sunrise”.

(这里主要考查社会语言学的基本知识。考生可以从词汇的角度出发,回答问题。也可以从语言变化的角度答题。主要要解释英语产生新词的主要渠道或方法。注意:不要跟“词汇变化”和语言变化相混淆,因为词汇变化还有语音变化等,语言变化还有句法变化等)

2. When a teacher says “it’s hot in here” during a class, what does she probably mean? Refer to the theory of pragmatics when you analyze the situation.

This utterance would be semantically ambiguous if it was seen isolatedly without any context of situation. Its interpretation has to rely on the context in which it was uttered.(5分)

There could be generally two types of situation in which this utterance could happen. One may be that it is summer; the teacher just come into the class and is sweating heavily. The other may be that in class the students are quite

active towards the questions or problems the teacher has posed, for example,

discussing in group, or debating in a large scale.(5分)

According to the cooperative principle, in our conversation, in order to be cooperative, that is, to make his intentions to be known by the hearer, the speaker will try to make his conversational contribution such as is required, at the stage at which it occurs.

Therefore, according to the third maxim of cooperative principle, RELATION, which says “be relevant”, the utterance could be interpreted differently as follows:

In the firs t situation, when the students hear the teacher saying “it’s so hot

in here”, they would probably assume that the teacher is obeying the cooperative principle, and what he says is relevant to the context, which is that the teacher is sweating, and maybe accompanied by fanning himself with his hand. Therefore, what the teacher means is probably that the temperature is high. (5分)

What’s more, if the windows in the classroom are closed, this utterance will go further to be an implication of a request for opening the windows.

In the second situation, the students would assume that the teacher should have observed the maxim of relation, since it is under normal circumstances.

Given the context in which the students are discussing or debating about certain questions furiously, the hearer would tend to interpret the teacher’s utterance as: “you are discussing (or debating) so actively”, which implies a praise for the active participation of the students in class activity. (10分)

(本题主要考查主要语用学理论,考生要从会话含义,合作原则以及言语行为理论三个方面答题。尤其是言语行为理论中的以言行事(illocutionary act),或间接言语行为在语言使用中的作用。同时指出,在会话中,说话者和听话者基本遵守合作原则(CP)。另外,说话者一般都会收到言后之果(perlocutionary act),既学生把窗户打开,或更积极地参与讨论)

上外英语语言文学专业考研经验分享

上外英语专业考研经验分享 一、我的基本情况 我现在在上外英语系读研究生一年级,当初考研考了两次,第一年是由于对题目理解不深,考试指导方向不明,导致基础英语考了90多分,便未能进入复试。有了第一次的惨痛教训,我调整了复习方向,更换了一大批书目,第二年终于取得了成功,总分402,专业课也比第一年有了数十分的提高。在此我想和大家分享一些针对上外学术型英语专业考研的备考经验(以专业课基础英语和英汉互译为例),以期对大家有所帮助。 二、关于专业课复习 网上有很多人说上外的题目很难,确实如此,上外英专的题目几乎没有哪一道题是简单的,但这并不代表就无处下手,只要认真分析真题,制定相应的学习计划,还是能够取得成功的。 1、基础英语:其分为三大部分:英语基础知识运用、阅读理解、作文。其中后两项占比重最高,作文有大小两篇总共65分,阅读理解40道题40分(年份不同分值会稍有变化),这就告诉我们要在这两项上下大工夫。 英语基础知识运用首先是词汇题,考察考生的词汇量与理解程度,这不单单要求你认识这个单词还要求对这个单词有较深的理解。接着是改错题,这一道题像普通英语考试的改错题一样,难度不大,考察的都是最基础的知识。最后一小部分是完形填空,一篇不长的文章挖去30个空,给出一个包含30个单词的框,要你选择合适单词的

合适形式来填空。鉴于这道题的难度一直比较大,我们在平常积累搭配、词汇对付这道题的同时要注意对试卷整体的把握,毕竟只占15分(2013年与2014年),我们遇见不会的题目时要果断处置。整个的考试时间对上外的题量与难度来说几乎是捉襟见肘的,所以考试时通读文章之后要对难度与时间有一个基本的把握与衡量。 阅读理解,上外在2013年之前采用的是GRE的题目,从2013年开始沿用英语专业八级考试阅读部分的体型,2013年当年更是直接用了以往英语专业八级考试的部分真题,所以衡量自己的阅读能力最好的办法就是在规定的时间内完成一套专八真题,测试一下正确率。对于阅读来说,词汇是基础,没有过硬的词汇量读文章会比较费力,再者就是阅读速度,8篇文章(有长有短)40道题,时间大概不能超过一个小时,以40-50分钟为好,否则下面写作文的时间便少了很多。所以这道题目测试的就是应试者的理解力与阅读速度。又快又好是这部分试题的要求。作文是一篇小作文(要求为记叙文),250字左右,25分;一篇大作文(要求为议论文),记得是要求400字左右,40分。所出的题目都是比较富有哲理的,这无形中也增加了写作的难度,比如2014年的议论文要求考生论述WISDOM和KNOWLEDGE 的关系,就很具有思辨性。作文的提高不是一日而就的,要求我们平时要多阅读,多练笔,积累优美词句,养成爱思考的习惯,这样才能在考场上遇变不惊。 2、英汉互译:说起翻译似乎没有一个标准,一篇文章会有多个不同的翻译版本,但细细研读这些文章之后,我们便会发现其中的细

Book one Unit 6 Animal Intelligence Text A The first time: The first period: I. Preview: 1. Let the students be familiar with some important words and phrases in Text A, which will enable them to better understand the text: controversy, encounter, convince, suspicious, blank, relieve, figure out, assess, inaccessible, release, deceive and wipe out. 2. Ask the students to search for some information about animal intelligence through Internet or the Encyclopedia while keeping the question in mind that whether animals do have intelligence and what kind of presentation they may show. 3. Read Text A in general and paragraph 5&6 in Text B. II. Check the homework left last time when the fifth unit was finished. III. Introductory remarks (T s’ words): In unit 5, we’ve talked about romance. Of course, it’s about the romance of us human beings. But, do we believe that animals will also fall in love? In this unit, Text B, we have examples showing that animals do have certain affections to the one of the same kind but the opposite sex. As we’ve read paragraphs 5&6 in Text B, the point has been proved in someway. Well, from the stories, we see that animals really have their own way of thinking. But, what animals really think? Do they have intelligence as we do? IV. Check the preview work through discussion: 1. What’s the meaning of intelligence? And, what about animal intelligence? →Intelligence refers to the power of perceiving, learning, understanding, and knowing. It also means mental ability. As for animal intelligence, it involves such factors as the ability to learn, to solve new problems, or to create novel solut ions to familiar problems and reasoning. The last one means that some animals have the ability to benefit from the experiences of others. That’s what we can find in the third story in Text A, that Towan is clever to do the similar trick as Melati. 2. Ask Ss to tell some interesting stories concerning animals’ presentation of intelligence. Here are also two samples. →Story one: My parents once raised a dog named Doudou. One day, my father left his coat behind in the scallion field. Doudou stayed beside the coat until my father returned to the scallion field and looked for his coat. Then, he went home happily together with my father. Story two: Once in Y unnan Province, a boa saved the son of his master from a river. Ts may list some other animal behaviors to arouse the Ss’ interests: E.g.: Bees communicate a food source to other members of the hive by means of various “dancing”. Some other species can communicate by sight, taste or odor, electrical impulse (fish), or touch, and many animals have more than one system. Conclusion: From all above, we find that animals do display intelligence in some areas. Let’s read the text and find more examples of animal intelligence. V. Global reading tasks.

2020上外英语语言文学英美文学方向考研经验分享

2020上外英语语言文学英美文学方向考研经验分享 一年的考研之路终于画上圆满句号,现在自己也闲下来了,想给大家分享一下我个人的一些小经验,希望帮助到2020考研的小伙伴们。 基础英语(业务课一): 2019年的考试题型包括单选,完型,阅读,小作文以及大作文,题量比较大,难度也不小,考试时要注意时间的分配。单选主要考察GRE难度单词的词义辨析,基本上知道意思就可以选对。针对这一题型的备考主要是背单词,大家选择适合自己的方法来记忆就可以了,但一定要记熟,背单词背的摸棱两可真的没什么用,还浪费时间。 完型填空难度比较大,选择的篇章来自英文报刊和书籍,今年考的是一篇关于文学评论方法的文章,和平时资料里做到的风格不太一样。备考时主要用的是428资料里的35篇来练手,篇章主题包括政治,经济,文化等等。备考主要是多练习多阅读,一开始不用太在意时间,找到做题的状态,细心静心,尽量提高正确率。 阅读题备考主要是掐时间做一做专八的阅读,GRE的阅读。 小作文以描述,记叙类为主,428资料里还有一些具体的分类和范文。大作文比较常规,是最常见的说理议论类,遵循三段论的原则,框架搭起来,举例与论述相结合,注意语言的流畅度就可以。近两年没有考改错,往年一直在考,题型和难度与专八相仿,平时复习时可以适当练习。 英汉互译(业务课二): 一篇英译汉,一篇汉译英,英译汉的主题多为文化类,汉译英的体裁主要是名家散文。由于今年的基础英语试题难度较大,大家的分数普遍不高,差距不大,翻译就成了拉分项。备考汉译英大家基本上都选用《英译中国现代散文选》(张培基译注共四册),《散文佳作108篇》和历年真题作为练手和学习的材料。建议规定时间,自己先译,再对照参考译文,学习一些出彩的搭配和句型。我比较好的一点就是报了班,做完翻译不用自己去对答案,有爱考宝典的老师给我批改,他看过我的答案过后就能知道我的薄弱之处在哪,会针对性地给我讲解训练相关的内容。我们自己也要从参考译文中学习一些好的词汇,搭配和句型,观察参考译文对长难句的处理,长短句式的安排以及中英文转换时句子主语的变化和上下句之间的逻辑衔接。考试时保证自己的译文对原文的忠实性,注意语言的自然性,准确性和流畅度。英译汉首先是巩固自己的单词量,尽量不要因为不认识单词而失分,真题中还会出现个别GRE难度的词;其次是要注意自己对母语的把控能力,写出的句子要符合中文的语言习惯,并且成熟流畅,行文风格忠实于原文;再次是要了解一些世界文化常识。 二外(德语): 考试题型包括单选,完型,阅读,德译汉和作文。上外没有规定二外的参考书,我复习时主要是反复刷了刷本科时的二外教材《新编大学德语》一二三册,做了书上所有的课后习题,背了课后的单词,对照着配套的教师手册后的课文译文默写德语原文。语法的总结和巩固用的是《新求精德语语法精解与练习》,这本书的语法脉络与讲解很清晰简明,题目难度很适合二外的备考,好好做一做很有帮助。 政治:花的时间很少,完全靠运气,所以没啥经验好分享给大家,希望大家能好好复习这一门,尤其是理科生。 宝剑锋从磨砺出,梅花香自苦寒来。大家千万不要害怕困难挫折,勇敢的战胜它们,你就能成功,加油!
