25、etonymy（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：Metaphor involves the comparison of two concepts in that one is constructed in terms of the other, and it is often described in terms of a target domain and a source domain.

27、cularized conversational implicature（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：Conversational implicature can be divided into two kinds; the generalized and the particularized. A generalized conversational implicature refers to the implicature that is usually carried within the utterance produced by the speaker on the ba

28、sis of observance of a certain maxim. It is obtained by assuming that the speaker“s utterance of a particular sentence will generally carry some implicature. For example, A asks whether B has invited Tom and Jerry to the party, and B answered that he didn“t invite Jerry. We can infer from the conver

29、sation that B has invited Tom although B didn“t say it explicitly. As for the particularized conversational implicature, it is generated in a conversation by overly and deliberately violating some sub-maxims for communicative purposes and it is the inference dependent on particular time,place and pe

30、ople.

33、te this relationship,such as “because“ ,“even though“and “when“. For example, “He is a teacher when I am a student. “ In this sentence,“ when“ serves as a conjunction to start a subordinated clause which indicates the time of the occurrence of the main clause.)解析：解析：(考查并列关系和主从关系)4.inflectional morph

34、eme vs. derivational morpheme（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案：Inflectional morphemes manifest various aspects of the grammatical function of a word without changing its grammatical category. They can be used to indicate case and number of nouns, tense and aspect of verbs, and degree of adjectives and adverbs. F

35、or example, both “hard“ and “harder“ are adjectives. The inflectional morpheme“-er“simply indicates a comparative degree. Derivational morphemes are bound morphemes added to existing forms to construct new words. Derivational morphemes are productive but they do not represent any syntactical relatio

36、n or grammatical categories. For example, the addition of the derivational morpheme“ -ness“ changes the adjective“ happy“ to the noun“ happiness“ ,and the addition of “-hood“changes“brother“into“brotherhood“ ,a change in meaning without altering the part of speech.)解析：解析：(考查屈折语素和派生语素)二、单项选择题(总题数：12，
