13、ears after an initials, e. g. in the word spin; an aspiratedph, e. g. initially in pin; but there is no context in which both would be normal.

14、(正确答案：An inflectional affix is an affix that expresses a grammatical contrast that is obligatory for its stem“s word class in some given grammatical context.

Structural change(SC):XAYXBY)解析：解析：考查音系规则中的

25、结构描写和结构变化。音系规则读为：音段或特征 A在 X_Y的环境中变为 B。12.Linking-r in British RPThe phenomenon of linking-r in British RP is illustrated by the data given below: （分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：In British RP, people pronounce an /r/ in red, where “r“ is followed by a vowel, but not in park, nor in bar when those words are sai

26、d in isolation. However, if a word ending in written “r“ is followed closely by a word or by a suffix beginning with a vowel, the /r/ is pronounced as in water ice or in barring. This phenomenon is referred to as “linking-r“.(4 points)Therefore, although the word bar is pronounced as ba:, the word b

27、arring is pronounced as . The phonological rule can be given as r/_ V.(3 points)And the rule reads; The voiceless letter “r“ is transformed intorwhen it appears directly before a vowel.(2 points)When the word park is followed by the suffix -ing, the vowel )解析：解析：考查英语中的 r音连读。单词末尾或音节末尾的 r在英式英语中是不发音的。但

28、是，当这个单词后面加上以元音开头的后缀或者这个单词后面紧跟着一个以元音开头的单词时，就会使原来不发音的字母 r读为r，并同后一个音节相连。根据音系规则，我们可以将其写为：13.Each of the following columns illustrates a different morphological process in English:（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：Column 1: infixation(2 points) Column 2; suppletion(2 points) Column 3 : stress shift(2 points) Column 4

29、: suffixation(2 points)解析：解析：考查英语中的形态变化过程。形态变化过程有三种主要类型：词缀法、重叠法和变异法。词缀法可以分为前缀法、后缀法和中缀法；重叠法可以分为部分重叠法和完全重叠法；变异法种类繁多，包括元音变化法、异干法、减法和重音转移。14.State the most obvious differences between compounds and verb phrases in English. Compounds Verb Phrasesfoot-warmers Iwarmed my feetman-eating Sheeats an applebrai

30、nwash He waswashing disheshaircut The boycuts a piece of paper（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：From the examples, we can see that compounds are those words that consist of more than one lexical morpheme, or the way to join two separate words to produce a single form. In compounds, the lexical morphemes can be o

31、f different word classes.(1 point)All the given words are endocentric compounds. The heads of them are derived from verbs. The first member is a participant of the process verb, which not only determines the category of the whole compound, but also determines the major part of the sense of the compo

32、und. In this sense, the right member serves as the head.(2 points)Compounds are written in different ways. Some can be written as single words; some can be joined with a hyphen “-“ ; some can be written with ordinary space between the two parts.(1 point) Phrase is a single element of structure conta

33、ining more than one word, and lacking the subject-predicate structure typical of clause. A phrase must be a group of words which form a constituent.(1 point)A verb phrase usually consists of a verb plus a nominal group, and is cbnsequently no longer a verb. The verb in the phrase serves as the head.

34、(2 points)Phrases are written with ordinary space between the words.(1 point)解析：解析：考查复合词与动词短语之间的区别。复合词指那些由一个以上的词汇语素构成的词，或者由两个独立的词连接起来构成的新形式。例子中给出的都是向心复合词，中心成分都是从动词派生出来的，第一个成员都是动作过程的参与者，决定了整个复合词的词类和主要意义，可以被看作中心成分。短语在语言的层级中，介于词和小句中间，由两个或者更多词构成，但没有主谓结构。短语必须由几个词构成一个语法单位。动词短语通常由动词加上一个名词词组构成，而动词被看作中心成分。从书

35、写方式来看，复合词有的可以写成一个词，有的可以用连字符“-”，也有的在其构成的两部分间可以有一个空格。构成短语的每个词之间用空格隔开。三、简答题(总题数：9，分数：18.00)15.The following phrases include a head, a complement and(in some cases)a specifier.

36、ed the money VP (2)full of mistakes AP (4)that argument with Owen NP（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案： )解析：解析：考查直接成分分析法。短语一般包含三部分：head(中心语)、specifier(标志语)和complement(补足语)。中心语左边的成分是标志语，右边的成分是补足语。如下图所示：16.Give the deep structure of the sentence What can the boy sit on?, and transform the deep structure of the sent

37、ence into its surface structure, using two diagrams to demonstrate the process of transformation.（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：Deep structure:(6 points) Surface structure:(6 points) )解析：解析：考查深层结构到表层结构的转换。要求画出深层结构和表层结构以及转换两个树形图。深层结构是指一个结构体的句法属性的抽象表述，即不同成分之间的结构关系的潜在层面。表层结构是结构体句法派生过程的最后阶段，与人们实际发送、接受的结构组织是相符合的。17.The following sentences are semantically ambiguous:(A)Peter saw the lady when she was near the bank.(B)The captain met wealthy men and women.You are required to point out the source of semantic ambiguity for each sentence.（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：In sentence(A
