The absence of a wide-ranging vocabulary of loanwords force people to rely more on word-formation processes based on native elements. The latter period of Old English was characterized by the introduction of a number of ‗loan translations‘. Grammatical relationships in Old English were expressed by the use of inflectional endings. And Old English is believed to contain about 24,000 different lexical items.In Middle English period, English grammar and vocabulary changed greatly. In grammar, English changed from a highly inflected language to an analytic language. In vocabulary English was characterized by the loss of a large part of the Old English word-stock and the addition of thousands of words from French and Latin.In Early Modern English period, English vocabulary grew very fast through extensive borrowing and expansion of word-formation patterns. And there was a great many semantic changes, as old words acquire new meanings.Modern English is characterized with three main features of unprecedented growth of scientific vocabulary, the assertion of American English as a dominant variety of the language, and the emergence of other varieties known as ‗New Englishes‘.2.appeareth in (a) becomes appeared in (b), and dreame becomes dream.

The suffix–ee is typically attached to a verb meaning ‗one who is the object of the verb‘. This meaning is considered as the core meaning of the form. So, trainee means ‗one who is being trained‘. But the background knowledge associated with the verb may modulate the meaning of the suffix. Suffix –ee in standee moves away from the core meaning and is deprived of the ‗object‘meaning. So ‗standee‘ means ‗one who stands‘.4. In ‗good baby‘, ‗good‘means ‗well-behaved, not causing trouble‘; in ‗good parent‘, ‗good‘means ‗kind, generous, considerate, etc.‘5.

Advanced Business English WritingSuggested Answers to Task-based ExercisesChapter One1. Information control1). The recommendations should be placed after the conclusions.2). Point 3d should not have been included.Language control1). The style of the sentence,I’ve been asked to… in the Terms of Reference is far too personal.2). In 4b the word must creates a hard tone that is inappropriate for addressing the vice-president of personnel.Presentation techniques1). Conclusions should not be indented in section 5.2). There is inconsistency in bracketing or not bracketing the letters.4. Certain changes should be made to the letter:1) Catherine Porter could address Audrey Maxwell as “Dear Mrs Maxwell”, rather than “Dear Madam”.2) She could use “I” rather than “we”. “We” is a way of hiding behind your company, avoiding responsibility. You should only use it if you really mean the company as a whole.3) She could replace formal expressions like “We acknowledge receipt”with more informal ones.4) She could use the active rather than the passive voice. “I have credited youraccount” rather than “Your account has been credited”. The first sounds friendlier, the second is very impersonal.5) She could be more apologetic about the company’s error. Nothing is more annoying that receiving a letter in which the company admits to having made a mistake but does not bother to apologize.6) She could be more tactful in turning down Mrs Maxwell’s request for compensation. There is no reason not to be firm if the situation calls for it, but you can be firm and friendly.5.To: Forest Guard Corp.Attention: Ms.Wang, Marketing ManagerFax No.: 26435783From: Xiang Yan, Designing Dept.Date: 16 June, 2009Subject: Printing Business CardsPages: ThisDear Ms. Wang,6.From ************************Date 25:7:03 16:06:29To *********************Subject Petty Cash VouchersJohnSome of the staff from your department are still bringing their petty cash vouchers to me.

This is an amended version of the previous letter. The staff should feel some sympathy with the company’s situation from the wording of this second attempt. They may feel peeved about the small increase, but they will probably also feel grateful that they still have a job.Chapter Three1.a)Stephen is writing to inform his manager of his resignation. The word resignationin the subject heading “My resignation”and in the first paragraph, “I am writing to inform you of my intention to resign from G & S Holdings.”b)He used polite phrases for the following reasons:●He wants to break the news as gently as possible, to avoid annoying the manager.Staff resignations cause trouble for a manager, as the manager then has to recruit another member of staff, which is a time-consuming, expensive and troublesome process.●He's writing to the Regional Manager, who has a higher status in the company.●He may want a good reference letter.●He may want Katherine Chu to be a referee for him in future.The polite phrases are:●“I have appreciated very much my four years...”●“I have gained valuable experience working within an efficient and professionalteam environment. In particular, I have appreciated your personal guidance...”●“Once again, thank you for your support.”c)“I would like to leave, if possible,..” This is tentative becase it uses a conditionalsentence (conditional sentences use “If” and have a comma in the middle).“I hope that this suggested arrangement is acceptable to the company”. This is tentative because of the word “h ope”.2.a)Hugo wants to present the information logically: what caused the memo, theinvestigation and finally the request for action.(Note: He has cleverly 'hidden' the fact that non-smokers only have a majority of 1 in the middle of the text, emphasizing the request for action and the fact that the memo comes from the Staff Liaison Committee.

tough work for middle and high school kids.And at first it is,says Abby Jaramillo,who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools.The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness,and healthy lifestyles.Jaramillo’s students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores.“The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,”she says.“They come to us thinking vegetables are awful,dirt is awful,insects are awful.”Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt,most are eager to try something new.Urban Sprouts’classes,at two middle schools and two high schools,include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection,tastings of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden.Several times a year,students cook thevegetables they grow,and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes.“We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they’re eating differently,”Jaramillo says.She adds that the program’s benefits go beyond nutrition.Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens.Besides,working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo’s special education students,many of whom have emotional control issues.“They get outside,”she says,“and they feel successful.”4.What do we know about Abby Jaramillo?A.She used to be a health worker.B.She grew up in a low-income family.C.She owns a fast food restaurant.D.She is an initiator of Urban Sprouts.5.What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the start of the program?A.The kids’parents distrusted her.B.Students had little time for her classes.C.Some kids disliked garden work.D.There was no space for school gardens.6Which of the following best describes the impact of the program?A.Far-reaching.B.Predictable.C.Short-lived.D.Unidentifiable.7.What can be a suitable title for the text?A Rescuing School Gardens B.Experiencing Country LifeC.Growing Vegetable LoversD.Changing Local LandscapeCReading Art:Art for Book Lovers is a celebration of an everyday object—the book,represented here in almost three hundred artworks from museums around the world.The image of the reader appears throughout history,in art made long before books as we now know them came into being.In artists’representationsContinued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page outdated.From a 21st-century point of view,the printed book is certainly ancient, but it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader.To serve its function,a book must be activated by a user:the cover opened,the pages parted,the contents reviewed,perhaps notes written down or words underlined.And in contrast to our increasingly networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked,a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private,“off-line”activity.8.Where is the text most probably taken from?A.An introduction to a book.B.An essay on the art of writing.C.A guidebook to a museum.D.A review of modern paintings.9.What are the selected artworks about?A.Wealth and intellect.B.Home and school.C.Books and reading.D.Work and leisure.10.What do the underlined words“relate to”in paragraph2 mean?A.Understand.B.Paint.C.Seize.D.Transform.11.What does the author want to say by mentioning the e-reader?A.The printed book is not totally out of date.B.Technology has changed the way we read.C.Our lives in the21st century are networked.D.People now rarely have the patience to read.DAs cities balloon with growth,access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find.If you’re lucky,there might be a pocket park near where you live,but it’s unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.Past research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for humans,but a new study shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely important for human well-being.The research team focused on a large urban park.They surveyed several hundred park-goers,asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park.The researchers then examined these submissions, coding(编码)experiences into different categories.For example, one participant’s experience of“We sat and listened to the waves at the beach for a while”was assigned the categories“sitting at beach”and“listening to waves.”Across the320submissions,a pattern of categories the researchers call a“nature language”began to emerge.After the coding of all submissions,half a dozen categories were noted most often as important to visitors.These include encountering wildlife,walking along the edge of water,and following an established trail.Naming each nature experience creates a usable language,which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them.For example,the experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park.Back downtown during a workday,they can enjoy a more domesticform of this interaction by walking along a fountain on their lunch break.“We’re trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions back into our daily lives.And for that to happen,we also need to protect nature so that we can interact with it,”said Peter Kahn,a senior author of the study.12.What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text?A.Pocket parks are now popular.B.Wild nature is hard to find in cities.C.Many cities are overpopulated.D.People enjoy living close to nature.13.Why did the researchers code participant submissions into categories?A.To compare different types of park-goers.B.To explain why the park attracts tourists.C.To analyze the main features of the park.D.To find patterns in the visitors’summaries.14.What can we learn from the example given in paragraph5?A.Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.B.Young people are too busy to interact with nature.C.The same nature experience takes different forms.D.The nature language enhances work performance.15.What should be done before we can interact with nature according to Kahn?nguage study.B.Environmental conservation.C.Public education.D.Intercultural communication.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
