31、使徒)等。但当时古英语从拉丁语和其他语言中借来的词并没有后来那么多，有时是改变原有本族语词的词义，如 Easter(原意为纪念黎明之神的春节之名，现义为复活节)。常见的创造新词的办法是把两个本族语词合在一起而构成新词，如 handbook(手册)等。答案为 A。5.Between 1250 and 1500 about _ French words poured into English. A. 900 B. 9000 C. 10000 D. 12000（分数：1.00）A.B. C.D.解析：解析 从 1250 年到 1500 年的 250 年间，大约有 9000 个法语词汇进入到英语中，其

34、分数：1.00）A.B.C.D. 解析：解析 词素是最小的语义单位。如名词复数-s，-es。即有些词素在不同的语言环境中有不同的体现形式，这些具体的体现形式为词素变体。如否定前缀的变体有 im-，ir-，il-，in-。答案为 D。8.In English, inflectional affixes are _ and derivational affixes are both _ and _.

35、prefixes; infixes ; prefixes（分数：1.00）A.

B.C.D.解析：解析 概念(concept)存在于语言之外，是人类认知的结果，是客观世界在人脑中的反映，而意义(sense)存在于语言内部，意义的存在依赖于语言内部之间的语义关系及搭配。因此有些词虽具有相同概念，但因其搭配不同的词，所以意义不同。如

39、many 和 much 概念相同，但 many 与可数名词搭配，而 much与不可数名词搭配，所以二者意义也不同。另外，两词并不是理据词汇(motivated words)，它们的形式和意义之间是任意的、规约的关系。答案为 A。14.We can work out the meaning of heliocentric and geocentric according to _. A. morphological structure B. relevant details C. grammatical structure D. physical context（分数：1.00）A. B.C.D

41、.Sense relations include _. A. polysemy, analogy, amelioration, homonymy and hyponymy B. tautology, analogy, synonymy, antonymy and homonymy C. polysemy, homonymy, synonymy, antonymy and hyponymy D. inconsistency, homonymy, synonymy, antonymy and hyponymy（分数：1.00）A.B.C. D.解析：解析 词就其外部方面拼写和发音而言是具有任意性的

42、符号和独立的单位。但在语义上，所有的词都是彼此相关的。一个与其他词相关联的词是在语义上与它们相关的，因而有了语义关系。语义关系主要包括：多义关系、同形同音异义关系、同义关系、反义关系、上下义关系和语义场。答案为 C。16._ is not a pair of homophones. A. air, heir B. dear, deer C. son, sun D. tear, tear（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D. 解析：解析 A 项 air n. /*/(天空)，heir n. /*/(继承人)；B 项 dear n. /*/(亲爱的人)，deer n. /*/(鹿)；C 项 son n

43、. /*/(儿子)，sun n. /*/(太阳)；都属于同音异形异义词(homophones)；而 D 项 tear n. /*/(撕开，撕裂)属/(泪珠)，tear vt. /*/于同形异音异义词(homographs)。答案为 D。17.“Lump“, “slice“, “chunk“, “sheet“ and “cake“ have the same _ meaning “piece“, but they are different in A. conceptual; connotation B. lexical; denotation C. conceptual; application D. associative; collocation（分数：1.00）A.B.C.
