44、判断题1 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查语言的定义和影响语言交际的因素。人们之间的有效沟通会受到语言、肢体语言、社会及文化等因素的影响。2 【正确答案】 B【试题解析】 考查语言的任意性。任意性指语言符号的形式与意义之间没有自然的联系。3 【正确答案】 B【试题解析】 考查语言的娱乐性功能。人们有时会因为纯粹的乐趣而使用语言。4 【正确答案】 B【试题解析】 考查语言的信息功能。信息功能是语言的主要功能，语言为传递信息服务。信息功能也被称为概念功能。5 【正确答案】 B【试题解析】 考查国际音标系统。丹麦语法学家叶斯伯森于 1886 年首先提出建立一套语音符号的想法。现在的国际音标系统主要

45、由英国语音学家丹尼尔琼斯和他在伦敦大学的同事们共同创造。6 【正确答案】 B【试题解析】 考查z和j的发音。z为齿龈浊擦音，j为硬腭通音。7 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查最小对立体。音位分析理论认为，一些语音会导致词义的变化，而另一些语音则不会。“最小对立体”测试法可以用来寻找导致意义变化的语音，但是此方法也有局限性，不适用于所有语言。8 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查音节结构。所有音节必须有一个核心，但并不是所有音节都有节首和韵尾。9 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查句子的重音。一般而言，句中实词通常重读，结构词不重读，但句子的重音经常被用来表示强调、惊异等语气，所以原则上重音可

46、以落在任何一个词或音节上。10 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查词的识别。识别词的三要素分别为稳定性、相对连续性和最小自由形式。11 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查形态学的定义。形态学涉及词语的内部结构，它研究意义的最小单位语素和成词过程。12 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查名词和动词的范畴。数和性是名词和代词的范畴，时和体是动词的范畴。13 【正确答案】 B【试题解析】 考查支配关系。支配关系指句法构造中某些词的形式被其他词控制，而非词与词在某些范畴上互相保持一致。14 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查组合关系。组合关系指一个单位和同一序列中其他单位之间的关系，或者说是所出现的所

47、有成分之间的关系。15 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查深层结构。为了解决直接成分分析法的不足，乔姆斯基建议区分句子的两种结构：表层结构和深层结构。深层结构指一个结构体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。(例如潜主语和动词、动词和宾语之间的关系)16 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查 Leech 对意义的划分。Leech 将意义划分为七种不同的类型：概念意义(conceptual meaning)、内涵意义(connotative meaning)、社会意义(social meaning)、情感意义(affective meaning)、反射意义(reflective

48、meaning)、搭配意义(collective meaning)、主题意义 (thematic meaning)。17 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 考查成分分析法。根据音系学中的区别特征，一些语言学家建议设立语义特征，也称语义成分，即词义可以看做不同语义特征的复合体。mother=PARENT(x，y)Loanword：tea(茶) ，yuan(元)，kung fu(功夫)，lichi(荔枝)，Confucian(儒家的)，wok(镬 )，cheongsam(旗袍)，kow tow(叩头)Loanshift：face(面子)Loan translation：Paper Tiger(纸老虎)

49、，Cultural Revolution(文化大革命)，National Peoples Congress (人民代表大会 )(3 points)【试题解析】 考查英语中借词的分类。英语在其发展过程中，通过借用其他语言的单词来扩充词汇。借词有以下几种类型：借词、混合借词、转移借词和翻译借词。借词的形式和意义都是借用的，有时为了适应新语言的音位系统，可以有些细小的改变；混合借词指所借词的一部分来自于本国语，另一部分借自外来语，但意义全都是借来的；转移借词的意义是借用的，但形式来自于本国语；翻译借词指所借词的每个语素或单词都是从另一种语言中的语素或单词对等地翻译过来的。72 【正确答案】 The Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis, named after the American linguist Edward Sapir and Benjamin Whorf,
