19、rs of a speech community. A. performance B. parole C. langue D. competence(分数:2.00)A.B.C. D.解析:解析 语言和言语的区别是瑞士语言学家索绪尔提出来的。语言是语言使用者们必须恪守的一套语言习惯和规则,而言语则是指对这些习惯和规则的遵守和实际应用。语言是抽象的,它并不具体指人们现实生活中所使用的语言;言语是具体的,它指的是自然而然正在发生的、具体的语言事件。语言是相对稳定的,它不会频繁地发生变化;而言语则因人而异,因语境的不同而不同。2.In terms of the place of articulati

A. linear B. hierarchical C. semantic D. grammatical(分数:2.00)A.
22、B.C.D. 解析:解析 我们对语言学知识的掌握应包括对句子构成成分之间结构关系和逻辑关系,也就是我们所说的语法关系。5.A word with several meanings is a _. A. synonymy B. polysemic word C. co-hyponym D. complete hyponym(分数:2.00)A.B. C.D.解析:解析 不同的词可以有相同或相似的意义,同一个词也可以有一个以上的意义,这就是我们所说的多义关系。具有多义关系的词叫做多义词。6.Ys utterance in the following conversation exchange vi

A. speech production B. comprehension of speech C. converting a visual stimulus into an auditory form and vice versa D. physical articulation of utterances.(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 神经语言学家们经研究得出以下结论,除了负责言语物理发声的肌动区域之外,大脑左半球有 3 个区域和语言密切相关。10.Basically all the following cat
27、egories except _ are always missing in the childrens telegraphic speech stage. A. the copula verb “be“ B. inflectional morphemes C. function words D. content words(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 儿童的早期多词句有一个非常特别的特征,即通常缺少屈折词素和大多数的次要词类范畴,比如表示动词不定式的小品词 to,冠词 the,助动词 can,以及系动词 be 的各种形式等功能词都很难见到。多词句中出现的通常是一些实词,用以
28、传达主要信息。因其与电报中的语言风格相似,故这一语言习得阶段的话语通常被称为电报式言语。三、BPART TWO/B(总题数:0,分数:0.00)四、B/B(总题数:10,分数:10.00)11.UP /Urelates the study of language to psychology.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:Psycholinguistics。)解析:解析 心理语言学研究的是语言和心理的相互关系。12.Stops, fricatives, affricates, liquids, and glides all have some degree of Uo /Uand
29、 are therefore consonants.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:obstruction。)解析:解析 爆破音、擦音、塞擦音、流音、鼻音、滑音等发音时,气流都有某种程度的阻碍,因此,它们都是辅音。13.UI /Umorphemes are those morphemes that show various grammatical relations or categories such as number, tense and case.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:Inflectional。)解析:解析 屈折词缀(也叫屈折词素)表现的是如数、时
30、态、级、格这样的语法关系或语法范畴。14.Words and phrases are organized according to the syntactic Uc /Uthey belong to.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:categories。)解析:解析 词和词组是根据它们所属的句法类型组织起来的。除了句子和子句以外,句法类型通常是指在句中起一定语法作用的词(称作词类)或者词组(称作词组类),比如句中的主语。可以相互替换而又不改变语法属性的成分属于同一句法类型。15.That the denial of one member of two words implies
31、the assertion of the other is the characteristic of Uc /Uantonyms.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:complementary。)解析:解析 成对的互补性反义词的特点在于,否定其中的一个成分,就意味着肯定了另一个成分。换句话说,它不是两个极端之间的级别问题,而是非此即彼的问题。例如,一个人要么是“生”,要么是“死”;要么是“男”,要么是“女”,没有其他的可能性。16.UD /Utries to get the hearer to do something.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:Directiv

33、uent occurrence of Us /Uwords and expressions, which make sense only to the people of particular social groups and serve as a mark of membership and solidarity within a given social group.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:slang。)解析:解析 俚语是对语言的一种非正式的使用。它由一些表达力极强但不太标准的词汇,出现很快且常常稍纵即逝的新词和以自发性抑或是挑逗性为特点的修辞格组成。俚语产生的中心
34、特点是它使用的动机:追求表现的新颖,强调的生动,希望能成为一个不为外界所知的一个特殊团体或阶级的成员,或者想跟上甚至超前于时代潮流。19.Genies case not only confirms the critical period hypothesis, but also the view that humans language Ua /Udevice is independent of other intellectual abilities.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:acquisition。)解析:解析 吉尼案例不仅证实了关键期假设,而且也证明了人类的语言习得机
35、制(LAD)是独立于其他智能发展之外的。不过,吉尼能继续开发语言能力并且能够说和理解一定数量的英语也提供了一些与上述假设相左的证据,即人们过了关键期之后并不是一点也不能习得语言的。20.Linguists often use the term native language or mother tongue instead of first language, and Ut /Ulanguage instead of second language in second language acquisition literature.(分数:1.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:target。)

37、有大量的语言只有口头形式。改正:The writing system is always a later invention.22.In English, long vowels are also tense vowels because when we pronounce a long vowel such as /i:/, the larynx is in a state of tension.(分数:2.00)A.正确 B.错误解析:解析 和长一短元音相对应原区别还有紧元音和松元音之分。所有的长元音都是紧元音,所有的短元音均是松元音。当我们发一个长元音的时候,喉部处于一种相对紧张的状态,
38、而当我们发短元音的时候,就没有这类紧张状态的出现,此时的喉部是放松的。23.Theoretically speaking, a compound can be a combination of two words of any parts of speech.(分数:2.00)A.正确 B.错误解析:解析 从理论上讲,不同词类的两个单词可以被组合到一起构成复合词。24.Since a compound is a word, its components can not be written separately.(分数:2.00)A.正确B.错误 解析:解析 从正字法上来看,一个复合词在拼写的
39、时候中间有无连字符都可以,或者写成两个单独分开的单词,譬如 armchair,follow-up,thunder bird 等。关于复合词的写法纯粹是习惯上的问题。改正:Orthographically, a compound has three forms: one word, one word with hyphen in between, and two separate words.25.Every utterance occurs in a particular spatiotemporal situation, the main components of which includ
40、e the place and time of the utterance.(分数:2.00)A.正确B.错误 解析:解析 所有的话语都是在特定的时空情景下产生的,除了话语产生的地点和时间以外,情景因素还包括说话人和听话人、他们当时的行为以及情景中所存在的物与事,也就是说,题干中所说的“话语产生的地点和时间”并不是主要的情景因素。改正:Apart from the place and time of the utterance, the main components of the utterance also include the speaker, the hearer, the acti
41、ons, the various objects and events.26.Of the views concerning the study of semantics, the contextual view, which places the study of meaning in the context in which language is used, is often considered as the initial effort to study meaning in a pragmatic sense.(分数:2.00)A.正确 B.错误解析:解析 我们讨论语义时,提到几个
42、涉及意义研究的观点,其中之一是语境论,它把意义研究和语言使用的背景结合起来。这种理论常被认为是人们从语用学角度研究意义的最初尝试。27.The most distinguishable linguistic feature of a regional dialect is its regional background.(分数:2.00)A.正确B.错误 解析:解析 尽管语言变异可以体现在语音、词汇或句法等方面,但主要还是在语音方面。对于地域方言来讲最重要的语言区别性特征还是口音。改正:Although variation may occur with respect to pronuncia
43、tion, vocabulary, or syntax, particularly to pronunciation, the most distinguishable linguistic feature of a regional dialect is its accent.28.Wernickes work strengthened Brocas claim that left hemispheric structures are essential for speech.(分数:2.00)A.正确 B.错误解析:解析 韦尼克的工作更有力地说明了布罗卡的主张,即大脑左半球的结构对言语活动功能有至关重要的作用,因而使人们对左半球的不同区域具有不同的语言功能的假设产生了更浓厚的兴趣。29.
