Here the butcher cleverly uses the pair of homonyms meat and meet to make a pun. It makes a proper answer to the lady’s question. (1) Butchers cannot make both ends meat (make whole sausages with all meat) because they cannot make both ends meet (If they made sausages with all meat, which is more costly, they would not earn enough money to survive.)( 2) Don’t complain. All the butchers do the same. I am not the only one who is making sausages with bread.2) Swallow is a bird which is seen in summer. But by one swallow we see, wecannot deduce that it is already summer time. Swallow can also mean amouthful of wine. On a cold winter day, if one has a swallow of wine, one may feel warm.3) arms has two meanings: weapons; the human upper limbs. Since “a cannonball took off his legs”, the soldier was not able to fight on, so he “laid down his arms”, which means “surrender”. It can also mean he laid down his upper limbs.Synonymy3. avaricious: greedycourteously: politelyemancipate: set freecustomary: usualwidth: breadthadversary: opponentgullible: deceivedremainder: residueinnocent: sinlessobstacle: obstructionvexation: annoyance5. a. identifiable b. safetyc. motivatesd. delicatee. surroundingsf. artificialg. prestige h. perspirei. accomplishment j. silentk. impressive l. evaporate6. run move spinturn whirl roll7. a. stead b. gee-gee c. riped. maturee. effectivef. efficientg. fatigued, children h. tired, kidsi. declined j. refused k. rancidl. addled m.

In Sentence 1, got, furniture, recently are superordinates because they are generaland convey a very vague idea whereas in Sentence 2, the three words are replacedrespectively by bought, cupboard, three days ago, which are subordinates, conveying a definite and clear idea. So Sentence 2 is better than Sentence 1.In 3, it is said, magnificent building, destroyed, yesterday are superordinate terms, which are comparatively much more general than the news says, Royal Hotel, burnt down, last night respectively in 4, which can be described as subordinates.Since 4 is clearer than 3 in meaning, it is better.Semantic field3. Group 1 is synonymously semantic field and Group 2 is semantic filed. Thedifference lies: In 1 the words are synonyms, none of them covers the meaning of another, and they differ only in style and emotive values. In 2 the words are not synonyms, but each refers to a specific type of horse. Horse is a cover term or superordinate, and others are subordinates. These terms have no difference in style or affective meaning.【Chapter 7】4. 1) extension 2) extension3) narrowing 4) degradation5) elevation 6) narrowing7) extension 8) extension9) narrowing 10) elevation11) narrowing 12) degradation13) degradation 14) degradation5. a. associated transferb. abstract to concretec. abstract to concreted. abstract to concretee. abstract to concretef. abstract of concreteg. associated transferh. associated transferi. synesthesiaj. synesthesia6. a. objective b. subjective, objectivec. objectived. subjectivee. subjectivef. subjectiveg. subjective h. subjective, objective7. a. die b. graveyardc. bedlam疯人院d. old peoplee. strikef.

Here the butcher cleverly uses the pair of homonyms meat and meet to make a pun. It makes a proper answer to the lady’s question.

The difference lies: In 1 the words are synonyms, none of them covers the meaning of another, and they differ only in style and emotive values. In 2 the words are not synonyms, but each refers to a specific type of horse. Horse is a cover term or superordinate, and others are subordinates.

张维友英语词汇学教程第八章课本词汇,又称语汇,是一种语言里所有的(或特定范围的)词和固定短语的总和。
词汇是构建语言的材料,学好词汇是学好英语的关键。
词汇教学一直是英语教学中令教师最为头痛的一个难题。
为帮助教师搞好词汇教学,下面介绍几种词汇教学方法。
利用标音规则教学单词英语属于拼音文字,拼读和拼写是密不可分的,它们之间的联系就是规则。
拼读规则是学习英语的拐杖,是学生认读词汇的金钥匙。
教师应帮助学生通过大量的拼读练习,发现和掌握元音字母和辅音字母在单词中的读音规律,常见字母组合的拼读规则,使学生按有关规律和规则推断单词的读音。
反之,从单词的读音可判断其拼写形式,养成见到单词会读音、听到语音会写词的能力。
在语境中教学单词词语要放在语境中才有生命,才容易记住,才知道用法。
如果没有一定的语境,任何词汇将变得没有意义。
语境包括句子、语篇和上下文。
如:教water这个词,呈现以下的句子。
i’m very thirsty. i want to drink some water. 2、the flowers are dry.i must water them everyday. 从语境中使学生知道第1句中的water是名词“水”,第2句中的是动词“浇水”的意思,从而掌握water 不同的词性和用法。
用构词法教学单词英语主要有三种构词法:转变,即为由一个词类转变为另一个词类。
比如:water 水(名词)―― water 浇水(动词)train火车 (名词) _____ train训练 (动词)open 开(动词) _____ open开着的(形容词)衍生,即为词根加前缀或后缀形成另一个词。
比如:(1)happy――unhappy ―― happiness(2)possible―― impossiblelike____ dislike3、合成,即由两个或更多的词合成一个词。
例如:(1) suit+case= suitcase(2)good +looking= good-looking(3)out+side= outsidein+side= inside(4)make+up= makeup(化妆品)四、用联想法教学单词M18x法就是所指从崭新单词与段小宇的单词之间的联系抓起,将词汇按一定的关系放到一起,同时记忆。

Robertson(rev.)1957: 174Words taken over from foreign languages are known as borrowed wordsor loan words or borrowings in simple terms. English is a heavy borrower and has adopted words from all other major languages of the world. It is estimated that English borrowings constitute 80 percent of the modern English vocabulary. As is stated in Encyclopedia Americana, “The English language has vast debts. In any dictionary some 80% of the entries are borrowed”(1980 V ol.10, p.423).The English language is noted for the remarkable complexity and heterogeneity of its vocabulary because of its extensive borrowings. Baugh(1978)talks of the English vocabulary as “cosmopolitan vocabulary”, which reveals the true nature of the English vocabulary. According to the degree of assimilation(同化)and manner of borrowing(借词的方式), we can bring the loan-words under four classes.1. Denizens.(同化词)Denizens are words borrowed early in the past and now well assimilated into the English language.本句翻译:同化词是早期借来的单词,现在被完全同化,完全吸收。

Here the butcher cleverlyuses the pair of homonymsmeat and meet to make a pun. It makesa proper answer to the lady ' s question. (1) Butchers cannotmake both ends meat (make whole sausages with all meat) because they cannot make both ends meet (If they made sausages with all meat, which is more costly, they would not earnenough money to survive.)( 2) Don't complain. All the butchersdo the same. I amnot the only one who is making sausages with bread.2) Swallow is a bird which is seen in summer. But by one swallow we see, we cannot deduce that it is already summer time. Swallow can also mean a mouthful of wine. On a cold winter day, if onehas a swallow of wine, one may feel warm.3) arms has two meanings: weapons; the human upper limbs. Since “a cannon ball took off his legs ”, the soldier was not able tofight on, so he “laid down his arms” , which means“ surrender ”.

第一章词汇与词汇学的基本概念词汇学学习之初,有必要去澄清一些关于词和词汇的基本概念。
词语word是一个难以捉摸的概念,需要在开始就认真关注。
发音和意义之间的关系,声音和形式之间的关系,词语和词汇之间的关系。
另外,我们将注意一些关于词汇分类的共识的规则,并且在本章一定程度上研究每类词语。
1.1 一个词是什么?词语是什么?多年来已经引起了语言学家的关注。
争议较大。
尽管已经提出了很多的定义,没有一个是最好的。
学者们仍然没有在词语的定义上达成一致。
当我们谈起一个词语,我们倾向于根据视觉条件来思考。
在这个角度,一个词可以被定义为平印在或者写在纸上的字母的有意义的集合。
当根据口语定义的时候,词被看成是一个发音或发音的集合,是由人的发音器官自由的发出的。
根据语义学家的意见,一个词是一个意义单位。
语法学家,则认为一个词是在句中起作用的自由形式。
等等。
总结起来,词语的定义包含以下几点:(1)一个最小的自由形态(2)一个发音的集合体(3)一个意义单位(4)能独自影响句子的形式因此,我们能说“词语是语言最小的自由形式,拥有固定的声音和意义以及句法作用。
”词语可以是简单词或者合成词,然而全部必须服从这些标准。
Man和fine是简单词,但是他们都有读音,意义和句法意义。
每个都能单独出现在句子中。
自然他们都是词。
也有像是misfortune和management 这样的复合词,他们都是多音节词,可以用来作主语,宾语和预示性词语。
尽管misfortune可以被进一步分为mis和fortune,前者不能作为词单独使用。
相似的,management可以被分成manage和ment,但是后者不能自由使用。
Blackmail能被分为black和mail,而且都能作为独立的句子单位使用,然而词的意思绝对不是两个部分的组合。
Black是颜色,针对white,mail指示“被邮局运送的东西”,然而当它们放在一起,组合形式意味着“强迫,利用不光彩的秘密要人送钱或行动作为答复。
”因此blackmail是一个不同的词。
1.2 读音和意义词语是一个符号,代表着世界上其他的事物。
每种世界文化已经赞成一定的读音将代表一定的人,事,地方,特性,过程,行动,当然是在语言系统之外。
这种象征性的联系几乎总是主观的,并且“在代表事物和思想的声音和实际的事物和思想之间没有法定关系。
”一只狗被称作“狗”,并不是因为那读音和三个字母能自动的指示那讨论中的动物。
它只是象征性的。
它们之间的关系是约定俗成的,因为同种语言的人们赞成用一串声音说那动物。
在不同的语言中相同的概念可以用不同的声音表达。
Woman,在德语中是frau,在法语中是femme。
在中国话中是funu。
另一方面,相同的读音也表示不同的意义,如mi:t用来表示会议,肉和边界。
骑士和夜晚,尽管代表不同的事物,仍然有相同的读音。
1.3 读音和形式通常认为,自然语言的书写形式是口语形式的书写记录。
自然书写形式应该和口语形式相一致。
换而言之,发音应该和形式相一致。
这在英语中是相当正确的在早期也就是古代英语中。
那时候的口语比今天更忠实的代表书面语。
随着语言的发展,越来越多的不同出现在口语和书面语之间。
内因是因为英语字母表采用罗马字母,罗马字母没有独立的字母代表每个读音,因此一些字母代表两个读音或者组合在一起发音。
Alphabet字母表另一个原因是发音比拼写的变化快,在一些时候还拉开了距离。
在最近五百年里,尽管口语发音已经出现了显著的变化,却没有相应的拼写变化。
第三个原因是一些早期的书写员发明了一些不同。
在早年拼写差别不是问题,因为人们不常看印刷体,而且拼写不像今天这样固定。
结果,没人能够肯定一些英语词汇该如何拼写。
有时候人们故意把拼写改变为一条直线或者只是为了方便识记。
在印刷术传到英国以前,每样东西都是手写的。
那些书写员,那些靠为他人写作谋生的人经常繁忙工作,为了应付国王,主教和商人的需要。
一个问题是几个字母用简短垂直的笔画书写象是iuvmw和n都看上去很相像。
因此,他们的书写体引起了误解。
为了部分解决这个问题,他们把mnv之前的u 改成o.这就是sum cum wuman wunder 变成some come woman wonder monk的原因。
某些时候,书记员可能认为没有单词应该以u或者v结尾。
因此,及时的,e被加入那样的词语象是live have true 但是没有发音。
At some point 在某个时候到1500年年末,印刷已经变得非常普及。
它有助于固定单词的拼写。
标准化使得拼写不容改变。
字典在拼写终结中得到好处。
同时,读音继续如往常变化,以此带来了更多的不同。
最后借词来了,这是丰富英语词汇的重要途径。
当英语从其他语言中借鉴单词时,它同样借用了拼写。
早期的借词被同化,后来的则不再遵守英语的发音和拼写规则,例如……英语的书写因此是发音形式不完善的代表。
历史上一次又一次,一些英美学者尝试去改革英语的拼写,但是不成功。
尽管差别,至少百分之八十的单词读音和拼写一致。
就算是那些拼写不规范的也有更多的规律和用处,超出我们的认识。
例如,象是hymn condemn bomb 他们的最后一个字母是不发音的。
但是他们扩展为更长的单词,沉默的字母就要发音,hymnal1.4 词汇所有一种语言中的词构成了它的词汇。
术语“词汇”使用在不同的地方。
他不仅用来代表一种语言中的单词总数,他还能代表所有特定历史时期的单词,例如古代英语词汇,中古词汇和现代英语词汇。
我们也用他来代表所有特定方言的词汇,一本书的词汇,一种学术的词汇和一个人的词汇。
英语是高度发展的世界语言之一。
自然词汇是最大最丰富的之一。
今天的英语笼统估计词汇量超过100万。
1.5 词类英语词汇由所有种类的词汇组成。
它们可以根据不同的标准或者不同的目的进行分类。
根据使用频率,单词可以分为基础词和非基础词。
可以根据概念分成实词和虚词,可以根据来源分为本地词和借词。
1.5.1 基础词和非基础词基础词是几世纪积累的词汇的基础,构成语言的核心。
尽管基础词占英语词汇比例小,它仍然是最重要的组成部分。
这些词有明显的特征。
1 所有的民族特征。
基础词代表我们身边世界中最常见的事物和非凡的现象。
这是所有说那种语言的人都要知道的,这包括和下面方面相关的词:自然现象:雨雪火,水,太阳月亮春夏风山人的身体和亲属:头足手脸父母兄弟姐妹儿子女儿动植物:橡树松树草梨苹果树马牛羊猫狗小鸡动作,尺寸,范围,状态:来去吃听打带好邪恶老年轻热冷重白黑数词代词介词连接词:一十百我你你的,谁,在里,在外,在下,和但直到如同这些词不能被英语会话者回避。
不能不考虑词源教育专业地区文化等等。
2.稳定性基础词已经被使用若干世纪,例如人火山水太阳月亮。
由于它们代表生活需要的普遍事物,它们很可能保持不变。
稳定性只是相对的,实际上基础词正在进行着变化。
象是弓箭马车骑士,过去是常见的,现在都删出了词库,同时象是“电,机器,汽车,飞机,微机无线电电视”这些代表新事物和现代生活方式的词,已经进入了词库,但是这个变化是缓慢的,更多的是加入而不是清除。
3.生产力基础词大多是词根。
它们每个都能单独使用同时可以和其他词根或词缀一起构成新词:例如足:片段,足球,人行道,页脚,脚步,立足的,未婚的,愚昧的,男仆,立足点,脚印和许多其他的。
同样的,dog是忠实的,狗性,狗车,便宜,折角,平局,混战,狗窝狗刨小憩这些词的父亲,只是说了一点。
4.意义分歧术语基础词的赐予经常拥有一个以上的意思因为它们中的大多数都已经发生了意义变化根据使用,变得一词多义。
一个例子将满足解释的需要动词take可能是说:从一地搬运到其他地方;未经允许或者错误的移动或使用,获得抓住,独立自强,用手抓住,愿意接受,忍受,需要(特定数量的时间);完成相关的行动,测试或者测量,写下,有预想效果或者工作成功。
5.搭配能力基础词中许多在一些设定表达,习惯用法,谚语和类似的东西中出现。
例子是很多的。
以心为例,变心,不在心上,金子的心,在心上。
伤害心,穿过心,呼喊心声,吃掉心,心在嗓子眼,心和手,心和灵魂,心上下浮动,挂心,把心挂在袖子上,全心全意等等。
当然,不是所有的基础词都有这些特点。
代词和数词有全国使用范围和稳定性,但是无歧义,生产和组合能力有限。
因此,全民性是区别通用词和其他词的最重要特征。
没有上面描述特征的词,不属于语言的正常核心。
它们包括下面:1.术语。
包括特定学科和学术领域的技术术语,例如在医学上:光扫描,肝炎,消化不良,青霉素;在数学上:代数,三角学,微积分;音乐上,交响乐,管弦乐队,奏鸣曲,协奏曲,教育上:视听教学,自休大学,微型教学等等。
2.行话。
用于特定的词汇,通过特定艺术,科学,商业和专业领域的成员在彼此之间交流,例如在商业:底线是不能逃避的暗示,无法避免的结果,最终版本。
“。
垒球数字是说估计,讨价碎片是说被谈判中一方控制的好处,在马赛中:抓他回来是说不让他赢,抓他进来是说强迫马匹在比赛开始跑到后面以便在最后提速;在医学中:多疑是指怀疑多虑,人格面貌是指人的人格面貌。
Hypo指皮下注射器;在战争中:buster 是炮弹。
总体来说,圈外人理解这些词有困难。
3.俚语粗话属于低等语言,处在标准通用语言,(包括每人用的非正式词汇)和团体内部语言包括cant(任何下等团体的行话),jargons,argot,所有这些词汇都和特定的人群联系或者大部分能被特定人群使用。
特定词被标示为“俚语”不是因为他们的写法和发音,而是因为他们的用法。
面团和面包,例如,是标准的当他们作为食物术语。
但是当标示俚语时则标示金钱。
类似的,“草”和“壶”相应的有标准或者正式的使用意义,就是“植物的类型”和“烹饪器皿”,但是作为俚语使用为“大麻”。
那样的词象是海狸(女孩),吸烟的,熊(警察),捉住(谈话),叫喊(呼叫)收到(理解),x光(雷达)都是俚语。
“头”的概念可以用“坚果”“圆屋顶”“上面的”“豆子”“大块”表示,诸如此类。
同样的,“喝醉”可以用超过三百个单词表示,象是“提高”“愉快”“高兴”“舒服”“沸腾”“草率”“紧张”“敲掉”“蓝眼”“薯条”“瘫痪”“腌制”“僵硬”“击昏”。
这些例子说明很多俚语都是通过改变或延伸现有单词的意义决定的,尽管一些俚语大体来说是新成员。
俚语被广泛使用。
有时几乎每个人都使用俚语,还有一些人经常使用大量俚语。
那些不去办公室或者很少过正常生活的人,还有那些经常和亲近的朋友一起而不是和同事或者极少的熟人在一起的人,使用俚语最多,因为俚语生动,直率,印象深刻而且感人。
正如一些人所说的,俚语避免了自负的感觉。
他是“卷起袖子立刻能够工作的语言”。
4.黑话通常是指罪犯的黑话。
他的应用被限制在下层文化团体,外人很难理解他。
