23、本題解析： 在語言交際中占有一席之地、由人類的發(fā)音器官所發(fā)出來的聲音在數(shù)量上是有限的。這些范圍有限，但對人類交際活動意義重大、對語言學(xué)研究價值不菲的聲音就是語言的音響媒介，凡是在這個范 圍內(nèi)的每個單個的聲音都叫做語音。 3、正確答案： B 本題解析： 正如音位是音系學(xué)研究中的基本單位一樣，詞素是形態(tài)學(xué)研究中的基本單位。 4、正確答案： C 本題解析： 對于任何一種自然語言，一套句法規(guī)則可以產(chǎn)生出無窮多的句子，也就是說，任何語言的句法規(guī)則都是有限的，而說話人能夠說出和理解的句子的數(shù)量是無限的。 5、正確答案： C 本題解析： 布龍菲爾德在試圖定義詞匯意義時采用了行為主義心理學(xué)觀點。 6、正確答案

24、： B 本題解析： 話語意義基于句子意義，是句子意義在特定交際情景或者語境中的具體體現(xiàn)。也就是說，句子的話語意義依靠的是說該句子的語境或情景。 7、正確答案： B 本題解析： 古英語可以追溯到公元 5 世紀(jì)中葉，當(dāng)時說英語的盎格魯一撒克遜人從北歐入侵了不列顛群島。英語中絕大多數(shù)基本單詞均來自古英語，比如 man, woman, Child, house 等。 8、正確答案： C 本題解析： 言語的變異總是以國語、方言以及不同的個體交際語言等形式來進行。從社會語言學(xué)的角度來看，一種言語變體無非是一種語言的方言變體而已。 9、正確答案： C 本題解析： 人的大腦位于頭蓋骨之下，平均包括 100億個

25、被稱為神經(jīng)元的神經(jīng)細(xì)胞。每個神經(jīng)元至少和一千到一萬個其他的神經(jīng)元相聯(lián)系。這些神經(jīng)參與著數(shù)不勝數(shù)的微電路性質(zhì)的活動。這些活動使得感知、思維、交流及其他類型的智力活動成為可能。 10、正確答案： D 本題解析： 當(dāng)我們說語言的習(xí)得基本上是語言的語法系統(tǒng)習(xí)得的時候，我們并不是說語言的語法系統(tǒng)內(nèi)的每一個具體的規(guī)則都需要習(xí)得。實際上，兒童習(xí)得的是使言語合乎語法規(guī)范所必需的一些具有普遍意義的規(guī)則。我們注意到，在生成話語時，兒童傾向使用普遍的語法規(guī)則，而排斥個別的不規(guī)則的情況。 11、正確答案： B 本題解析： 我昨天晚上寫一個報告，否則我就不會熬夜了。考查副詞詞義選擇題。 A 然而，不過 B 否則，要不然

26、 C 因此，所以 D 再者，而且 12、正確答案： B 本題解析： things 和 persons 是先行詞 .當(dāng)定語從句要修飾的先行詞是既表示人 , 又表示物的名詞時 , 其關(guān)系代詞要用 that 13、正確答案： A 本題解析： A 在于，原因是，在方面 C. 關(guān)于，至于應(yīng)用舉例： I like the country better in that it is closer to nature. 我更喜歡鄉(xiāng)村，因為它更接近自然。 14、正確答案： C 本題解析： 本題考查的是倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)的用法。第二分句中因有否定副詞 never 提前，故應(yīng)用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu);第一分句中的 have been mar

27、ried 已限定了時態(tài)，據(jù)此可排除 D 項。 15、正確答案： D 本題解析： 為了保持句子的平衡，往往用先行詞 it 作形式主語或形式賓語，而把真正的主語或賓語放到后面，尤其是 that 引導(dǎo)的主語從句往往用先行詞 it 作形式主語。此句也可以改寫為： That English is being accepted as an international language is a fact. 16、正確答案： C 本題解析： 譯文：我讓他騰出幾分鐘時間以便我們能一起仔細(xì)察看所有的問題。本題考查詞匯區(qū)分。 A .花費; B.節(jié)省; C.抽出 (時間 );D.分享。 17、正確答案： B 本題解

28、析： 譯文：小孩子對事物是如何組成的很好奇，一些孩子總是想把他們夠得到的東西都拆開。此題考查短語搭配， be curious about 對好奇。 18、正確答案： C 本題解析： 從本題后半句可以看出這是一個與過去事實相反的虛擬條件句， 從句中的動詞要用 “had +過去分詞”，如果將 if 省略，had 要位于主語之前，構(gòu)成倒裝句， 故本題的答案是 C。Had it not been for the free ticket =If it had not been for the free ticket 。 19、正確答案： B 本題解析： 譯文：更不用說，另一個定時系統(tǒng)在我們的人體時鐘內(nèi)，

29、它會使人保持在一個 25 小時的生理節(jié)奏上。此題考查關(guān)于 leave 的短語。 leave behind意為“留下， 放棄”，leave alone 意為“更不用說” 。 leave out 意為“遺漏，忽視”。 20、正確答案： D 本題解析： with whom 引導(dǎo)定語從句 .with whom 放在從句中即為 :my father works with the engineer 21、正確答案： B 本題解析： rather than 而不是。 other than 不同于，除了; in place of 代替; instead 代替 22、正確答案： B 本題解析： would ra

30、ther 或 would sooner 的意思都是“寧愿” ，其后要求直接用動詞原形。 如果后邊是 that 引導(dǎo)的從句，那么要求用過去時動詞表示尚未發(fā)生的動作，用過去完成時動詞表示對已經(jīng)發(fā)生的動作的某種愿望。應(yīng)用舉例： We would rather talk about football or the weather. 我們寧愿談?wù)動嘘P(guān)足球或者天氣的話題。 I would rather you came tomorrow. 我寧愿你明天去。 I would sooner you had gone there too. 我寧愿你也去那里了。 23、正確答案： D 本題解析： 考查感嘆句和“ sothat”的用法。 24、正確答案： D 本題解析： 孩子們對他們周圍的事物有著天然的好奇心?？疾槊~詞義選擇題。 A 確定性， 肯定的事 B 能力，才能 C 精明，聰穎 D 好奇心，求知欲 25、正確答案： D 本題解析： A 顯然，明顯地 B 外表上，直觀地 C 垂直地，直立地 D 實際上，事實上 26、正確答案： C 本題解析： A 什么 B 哪一個 C 什么時候 D (無詞義) 27、正確答案： A 本題解析： A 不確定的、試探性的 B 正當(dāng)?shù)?、有根?jù)的、有效的 C 技術(shù)性的、專門技術(shù)的 D 徹底的、十足的 28、正確答
