Answer the following questions in English.（4%×5=20%）6) （5 points）Language functions include informative function，interpersonal function，performative function，emotive function，phatic communion，recreational function and metalingual function.Examples：omitted.7) （5 points）The meaning of a sentence is abstract and de-contextualized，while the meaning of an utterance is concrete and context-dependent. Utterance meaning is based on sentence meaning；it is the realization of the abstract meaning of a sentence in a real situation of communication，or simply in a context.8) （2.5 points）Saussure was the father of modern linguistics and he was the first to notice the complexities of language. He believed that language is a system of sings. To communicate ideas，signs must be part of a system of signs，called conventions. He held that the sign is the union of the signifier and the signified. He made clear the object of study for linguistics as a science. His ideas on the arbitrary nature of sign，on the relational nature of linguistic units，on the distinction of langue and parole and of synchronic and diachronic linguistics，etc. pushed linguistics into a brand new stage.9) （3.5 points）Conceptual meaning；connotative meaning；social meaning；affective meaning；reflected meaning；collocative meaning；thematic meaning；10) （4 points）Linguistics can contribute to the research in language learning by providing more accurate information about what language is in the first place. Language learning researchers are concerned with how teachers should teach and learner should learn. But the questions of “what to teach” and “what to learn” should be answered first. Linguistics certainly has an important role in answering these questions. Besides，applying linguisticanalysis to the description of the language produced by language learners can also facilitate out understanding of how learners actually learn language.。
