六、名词解释

Define the following terms with examples.

70. Non-finite verbs: The non-finite verbs are so called because they are not marked for tense or for subjectverb concord. In form, it has the features of aspect and tense, while in its function, it can be object, complement, adverbial ,etc. We recognize three type of nonfinite verbs: infinitive (further divided into to-infinitive and bare infinitive), -ing participle and -ed participle.

71. Extraposition

Extraposition, as a grammatical device for postpoing the important item, is defined as "the replacement of the postponed item by a substitute form." The extraposed item is almost always a nominal clause, which satisfies the desire for end-weight. In function, the extraposed

item can be subject or object; in form, it can be finite or non-finite. When we remove a clausal subject or object to the final position, we use the anticipatory it to fill in the slot.

72. Text

The term "text" refers to a unified passage, which may be spoken or written ,prose or verse, dialogue or monologue. It may be anything from a single proverb to a whole play, from a momentary cry for help to an all-day discussion on a committee. A text is a hingher-level unit than a sentence but is related to a sentence in the same way that a sentence is related to a clause, a clause to a phrase and a phrase to a word. A text is more a semantic unit than a grammatical one. In other words, a unified text is one that is not only structurally well-integrated but also semantically coherent.

七、简答题

Answer the following questions.

73. Illustrate with examples 2 major classes of auxiliaries other than modal auxiliary.

1.The couple have lived here for ten years.

2.Don't come over there.

3.When did he drive to station to meet his sister?

74. What are special features about modal auxiliaries in semantics and in syntax?

Modal auxiliaries are a special group of words that have unique features both in syntax and in semantics. They are often described as inflectionally defective verbs, because in synactic terms they lack a full set of forms - not having non-finite forms or being marked for concord with the subject.

In semantis, modeal auxilliaries are all the more complicated because nearly all of them are polysemous and , as a consequence, their interpretation is such that we forever feel the need to resort to context for clues.

I was driving a taxi, looking for a customer. While passing New York Hospital, I found a man running down the hospital steps, waving at me. I stopped. The man reached the taxi and jumped in. “The Airport, please,”he said. As always, I wondered about my passenger. Was this man a talker? After a few moments, he started saying, “How do you like driving a taxi?” “It’s OK” I said. “I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes.” “What do you do?” I asked. “I am a doctor at New York Hospital.” Many times during long rides, I’d developed a good relationship with my passengers and received very good advice from them. This time I decided to ask for his help. “Could I ask a favor of you?” He didn’t answer. “I have a son, 15, a good kid. He wants a job this summer. Is it possible that you get one for him?” He still wasn’t talking, and I was starting to feel foolish. Finally, he said, “Well, my students have a summer research project. Maybe he could join in. Have him send me his school record.” He left his address and paid me. It was the last time I ever saw him.

自考英语语法名词解释

Acronyms Acronyms is a word coined by putting together the initial letters of a group of words. Affixation A word formation approach that attaches morpheme – an affix to a base,which is a word with 1 or more affixes in it. Anaphoric reference前照应A demonstrative determiner with anaphoric reference is more likely to go with a non-restrictive relative clause Cataphoric reference 后照应A demonstrative determiner with cataphoric reference,which goes with a restrictive relative clause Collective nouns These are generally countable nouns,but even in the singular they refer to groups of people,animals or things. Compound A compound,the product of composition,and it is a lexical unit consisting of more than one base and functioning both grammatically and semantically as a single word. Conversion The derivational process whereby an item is adapted or converted to a new word class without the addition of an affix. Coordination并列词Realized by coordinators (also termed coordinating conjunctions)which join units at the same level. Countable nouns Nouns that can take plural. Dangling participle:When the subject of participle is not expressed, it is normally to be the subject of the clause. It is usually poor grammar, and sometimes absurd, if this rule is broken: Trying to be quiet, the floor board creaked. But the rule is often broken when the subject is vaguely understood to be “one”, “we”, “you”, people in general. Determiner Words used in the premodification of noun phrase and put before any adjectives that premodify the head word of noun. Dynamic adjectives Many adjectives can also be used in the dynamic sense (be being a.)in predicative position to show subjective measurement or suggest a temporary state,implying the qualities can be controlled or restricted. (e.g. he is being rude) end-focus 尾部焦点under neutral conditions,the nucleus falls on the last element of the sequence as it is common that we process the information in a message to achieve a linear presentation form low to high information value. We refer to this as the principle of end-focus. ellipsis:省略leaves out the redundant/wordy part and do not provide a substitute. Exclamation Express our impression,especially our surprise,excitement,amazement,etc. It doesn…t take S-V inversion.

Think again. Leasing can end up being just as expensive as buying. Most people think about leasing because they believe it will cost them less money. They're right-it is cheaper, but only in the short term. For example, if you were to lease anew Subaru Forester, you might pay $300 per month for the car. If you were to buy the same car, you would pay about $400 per month. Over a three-year, you would save $3600-a big savings. But after your lease is over, you have to give the car back. Many people want to lease because they can drive a more expensive car than they might otherwise be able to afford. For example, if you spend $300 monthly on a car, you might be able to lease a new Ford Explorer. For the same price, you might have to buy a used Explorer, or buy a new but much less expensive model. A lease,therefore,allows you to drive the latest models of more expensive cars. However, whatever car you can afford to buy you get to keep it, and it will always have a resell or trade-in(以新旧换)value if you want to upgrade to a new car later. Furthermore, people who lease cars are often shocked by how much they must pay when the lease is over . Most leases limit you to a certain number of miles. If you go over that, you must pay for each mile. As a result, you may end up paying thousands of dollars in mileage(里程) fees. In addition, when you lease ,you have to pay for regular maintenance and repairs to the vehicle. Since you must return the car finally, you are paying to repair someone else's car.

自考英语语法

本次语法串讲分三个部分,第一,方法篇;第二,命题特点分析;第三,重点章节复习。 第一、方法篇 自学考试英语专业《英语语法》科目是一门理论性和实践性都非常强的课程,旨在考核考生能否熟练掌握现代英语语法的基本理论和概念,掌握词的形态变化和用词造句的规则,以及组句成篇的一般形式和规律。 由于存在着英汉语言体系上的差异、教材的全英版和术语的生僻、语法本身乏味枯燥等外部因素,以及考生英语基础知识薄弱、精读和泛读的阅读数量尚未达到一定量因此不能将一些语法规则变成感性认识加以推演和归纳、甚至还有同学有畏难情绪,一旦跟不上就放弃,或者偷懒,不愿多做一些练习和多记一些概念解释,结果仅以一、二分之差没有及格,令人扼腕。 但是有志者事竟成,这句名言还没有过时。我们举几个成功的例子吧。 我教过的学生中有人刻意让自己爱上语法,首先,她克服困难,把全书通读一遍,可是有那么多不懂的单词和术语怎么办?她问我。我说,把它们暂时放在一边,然后通过例句猜测该词的含义,结果既记住了概念又结合了例句,相辅相成,直到掌握。 比如:什么是extraposition?这个词是由extra-(在……之外,额外)加position(位置),联想到appositive phrase(同位短语),appositive clause (同位语分句)等,那么从该词的外形上可以判定extraposition是“位置放在外围”。 它出现在我们教材中的《信息结构和强调》一章中,我们知道,突出强调信息的几种主要方法(postponement, fronting,inversion, cleaving,existential sentence)之一的后移又有三种后移的方法:passive voice, extraposition and discontinuity。从课本上我们看到这样的例句:To make fun of a disabled man is not funny at all. It is not funny at all to make fun of a disabled man. He found it annoying that his neighbor kept calling him by the wrong name. 你注意到这里有it出现在句中做形式主语和形式宾语,真正的主语和宾语在句末,然后,结合解释“When we re move a clausal subject or object to the final focal position, we use the anticipatory it to fill in the slot. Grammatically speaking, it is the formal subject or object while the extraposed clause is the real or notional subject or object. In function, the extraposed item can be subject or object; in form it can be finite or non-finite. 后移的结果就是满足了末尾重心(end-weight)的原则,达到强调的效果。
