  一、 考试内容

  Chapter One Introduction

  1. Differences between general linguistics and descriptive linguistics.

  2. The nature of language(s)

  System/symbolic/vocal/arbitrary/creative/changeable/double-structured

  3. Scientific method in linguistics

  Common biases/the process of rule-construction

  4. The goal of linguistics

  Model/competence/explicitness/generativeness

  5. The sub-brancuistics

  Phonetics/phonology/morphology/syntax/semantics

  6. Saussure: the father of linguistics

  three major distinctions: synchronic/diachronic; paradigmatic/cyntagmatic; langue/parole

  Chapter Two Phonetics

  1. The sub-branches of phouetics aritculatory/acoustic/auditory

  2. The names of speech organs: Figure 1,p.17

  3. International Phonetic Alphabet

  Relationship between spelling and sound in English/advantages of IPA

  4. Classification of the English consonants

  (1)the position of the soft palate:nasal/oral;

  (2)the presence or the absence of vocal-cord vibration; voiceless/voiced;

  (3)thep lace of articulation:bilabials/labiodentals/dentals/alveolars/post-alveolars/alveopalatals/palatals/velars/glottals;

  (4)the manner of articulation;

  stops/fricatives/affricates/liquids/glides

  5.Classification fo the English vowels

  (1)the state of the velum:oral/nasal;

  (2)the position of the tongue:high-mid-low/front/central/back

  (3)lip rounding:rounded/unrounded

  (6)diphthongs/triphthongs

  (7)Phonetic features

  consonantal/vocalic/continuant/voiced/aspirated/nasal/anterior/coronal

  Chapter Three Phonology

  1.Importaet concepts

  phoneme/phone/allophone:minimal pair/minimal set

  2.Identifying phonemes

  (1)environment/distribution/contrastive distribution/complementary distribution/free variation

  (2)principles;contrastive distribution-separate phonemes; free variation——phonetic variants; complementary distribution+phonetically similar——phonetic variants.

  (3)procedures; Figure 13,p.36

  3.Sequential constraints

  4.Distinctive features

  5.Suprasegemental features;

  stress/tone and intonation/juncture

  Chapter Four Morphology

  2.Classifications of morphemes;

  (1)root/affiz;free/bound;lexical/functional

  (2)prefixes/suffixes/infixes

  (3)inflectional/derivational

  3.Identifying morphemes

  (1)cutting sound sequences into morphs; comparison;

  (2)grouping morphs into morphemes; semanti-cally indentical+complementary distribution——separate morphemes

  (3)empty morph/zero morph

  4.Morphemic analysis

  (1)Immediate Constituent Analysis(JC analysis);

  ultimate constituents/immediate constituents/constituents;

  (2)principles of IC analysis;

  meaningful relationship/morphological rules

  5.Word-formation processes

  (1)main processes; affixation/conversion/compounding;

  (2)minor processes; blending/clipping/acronymy/back-formation

  Chapter Five Syntax(Ⅰ)

  deep structure/surface structure

  2.The PS rules for the sentences, noun phrases, verb phrases and auxiliary phrases

  Chapter Seven Syntax(Ⅲ)

  1.Three kinds of operations performed by T-rules;optional/compulsory transformations.

  2.The structure of a T-rule; The structural description (SD)/the structural change(SC)

  3.T-rules; T-affix/T-Passive/T-Agent-deletion/T-Negation/T-Do-insertion/T-Yes/No question/

  T-Reflexivization/T-Imperative

  4.Ordering of transformations

  二、考试形式

  e.g.Morpheme is defined as

  (a)a meaningful unit

  (b)a minimal unit

  (c)a minimal meaningful grammatical unit

  (d)a minimal meaningful unit

  3.go If two or more sounds can occur in the

  same environment,they are said to Le in comple-mentary distribution. True False

  4.Essay-type questions

  e.g.How doesl angue differ from parole according to Saussure‘s view?
