第一题,与去年相同,依然是术语区分
1.fricative vs. affricate
2.meronymy vs. hyponymy
3.positive face vs. negative face
4.sense vs. reference
相比之下,今年该题偏简单,第一个不清楚,后三个都是很基本的概念,平时复习注意总结,结合例子用自己的语言表达出来即可。
第二题,依然是二分法
1.internationalization
2. The weather in Chicago today is no good for watching cridket.
第四题,简答题,给了5个新闻标题,要我们分析,what rules are there when we write elliptical English newspaper headlines?
(1) 3 Arrested in New Orleans Hospital
(2)Blast Kills 53 in Iraq Holy city
(3)Mission Applauded as Shuttle Returns
(4)U.S. at odds with Allies on Mideast Conflicts
(5)Optimism on Both Sides of Gay-marriage Debate
然后再为今天的考试写一个新闻标题
