第二单元练习2
Velar refers to _______ A. larynx B. soft palate C. alveolar D. pharynx
Name five of English front vowels:
The sound [p] can be described with _____ bilabial , stop. By the position of the _____ part of the tongue, vowels are classified as front vowels, central vowels and back vowels.
True or Fal vowels are also tense vowels because when we pronounce a long vowel such as /i:/, the larynx is in a state of tension. In classifying the English consonants and vowels, the same criteria can be applied. A general difference between phonetics and phonology is that phonetics is focused on the production of speech sounds while phonology is more concerned with how speech sounds distinguish meaning.

语言学第二章练习题讲课讲稿
语言学第二章练习题Chapter 2 Phonology1. What are the two major media of communication? Of the two, which one is primary and why?Two major media of communication are speech and writing, Of the two, speech is primary. The reasons are as follows.1)From the point of view of linguistic evolution, speech is prior to writing. Thewriting system of any language is always “invented’ by its users to recordspeech when the need arises.2)In everyday communication, speech plays a greater role than writing in termsof the amount of information conveyed.3)Speech is always the way in which every native speaker acquires his mothertongue, and writing is learned and taught later when he goes to school.4)For modern linguists, spoken language reveals more true features of humanspeech while written language is only the “revised” record of speech.2. What is voicing and how is it caused?Voicing is a quality of speech sounds. It is caused by the vibration of the vocal cords.3. Explain with examples how broad transcription and narrow transcription differ.When we use a simple set of symbols in our transcription, it is called broad transcription. Narrow transcription is the use of more specific symbols to show phonetic details.In broad transcription, the symbol [ l ] is used for the sound [ l ] in words leaf [ li:f] and feel [fi:l]. The [l] in [ li:f] , occurring before a vowel, is called clear [ l ]. The [ l ] in [fi:l] occurring in the end of a word or before another consonant , is called dark [ l ].And in narrow transcription the diacritic tilde [~] is used to indicate it. 4.How are the English consonants classified?English consonants can be classified in two ways: one is in terms of manner of articulation and the other is in terms of place of articulation.In terms of manner of articulation, it can be classified into stops, fricatives, affricates, liquids, glides and nasals. In terms of place of articulation, it can be classified into bilabial, labiodental, dental, alveolar, palatal, velar and glottal.5. What criteria are used to classify the English vowels?According to the place of the tongue, vowels can be distinguished as front, central and back. According to the openness of the mouth, vowels can be classified into four groups: close vowels, semi-close vowels., semi-open vowels and open vowels. According to the shape of the lips, all the front vowels and the central vowel can are unrounded vowels and all the back vowels are rounded vowels.6. Give the phonetic symbol for each of the following sound descriptions:1) voiced palatal affricative [ dʒ ]2) voiceless labiodental fricative [f ]3) voiced alveolar stop [ g ]4) front close short [ i ]5) back semi-open long [ ɔ: ]6) voiceless bilabial stop [ p ]Give the phonetic features of each of the following sounds1)[ d ] voiced alveolar stop2)[ l ] voiced alveolar liquid3)[ tʃ ] voiceless palatal affricate4)[ w ] voiced bilabial glide5)[ u ] back close short6)[ ae ] front open7. How do phonetics and phonology differ in their focus of study? Who do you think will be more interested in the difference between, say, clear [ l ] and dark [ l ] , aspirated [ p] and unaspirated [p] , a phonetician or a phonologist ? why? Phonology and phonetics differ in their approach and focus. Phonology aims at discover how speech sounds in a language form patterns and how these sounds are used to convey meaning in linguistic communication. Phonetics is of a general nature and it is interested in all the speech sounds used in all human languages.The difference between clear [l] and dark [ l ] is what the phoneticians are interested in . For the phonologists, these two sounds are fundamentally the same ,since they have one and the same function in communication , in distinguishing between words and meanings despite their difference in pronunciation.8. What is a phone? How is it different from a phoneme? How are allophones related to a phoneme?A phone is a phonetic unit or segment. A phoneme is a phonological unit. It is a unit that is distinctive , abstract and it is the smallest unit. The different phones which can represent a phoneme in different phonetic environments are called the allophones of that phoneme. For example, in the word leaf [ li:f] and the word deal [di:l] , / l / is onephoneme and the [l] in [li:f] is clear, the [ l ] in [di:l] is dark. They are all allophones of the phoneme /l/.9. Explain with examples the sequential rule, the assimilation rule, and the deletion rule.Sequential rules are the rules that govern the combination of sounds in a particular language. For example, if a word begins with a [ l ] or [ i ], then the next sound must be a vowel. Thus, [ lbik ] [ ilkb ] are impossible in English. They have violated the restrictions on the sequencing of phonemesThe assimilation rule assimilates one sound to another by “copying’ a feature of a sequential phoneme, thus making the two phones similar. For example, the [ i:] sound is nasalized in words like bean, green and team. This is because in all these sound combination the [ i:] sound is followed by a nasal [n ] or [ m].The deletion rule tells us when a sound is to be deleted although it is orthographically represented. For example, in the pronunciation of such words sign, design, there is no [ g ] sound although it is represented in spelling by the letter g10. What are the suprasegmental features ? How do the major suprasegmental features of English function in conveying meaning?The phonemic features that occur above the level of the segments are called suprasegmental features. The main suprasemental features include stress, intonation and tone. The location of stress in English distinguishes meaning. Tones are pitch variations, which are caused by the differing rates of vibration of vocal cords. Intonation plays an important role in the conveyance of meaning in almost every language, especially in a language like English. Intonation has four tones.: the falling tone, the rising tone, the fall-rise tone, the rise-fall tone. When spoken in different tones, the same sequence of words may have different meanings.杨晓娅唐明李克燕谢江兰李佳卉2011级英语二班。

Women are achieving economic independence.Families, too, are simpler today. In America, it is not customary for parents to live with their married children. With our greater mobility, relatives have scattered, the parents retiring to Florida or Arizona and the young people, after they marry, going wherever their jobs or their interests take them.Young adult women have new freedom, too. While attendingcollege, they often live away from home, sometimes far from their parents or their relatives. After college, they move to the city, find a job, and set up a“bachelor”apartment.

Unit 2 单元测试一、阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题,每小题2.5分,满分25分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AMore than two thirds of the world’s polar bears will be wiped out by 2050, according to ashocking new study. By then, scientists say, global warming will have melted 42 percent of theArctic sea ice. By 2100, only a very few of these important creatures will be left.The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey. The scientists have publicizedtheir findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne, who has beenasked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals, which are their main food. Without enough ice, polar bears would be forced to go onto the land, where they are killed by hunters, and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time. Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears: on the ground, from spotter planes and in the lab, using computer models. Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says. They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer had been forecasting, Satellite observations have showed that the ice has decreased to an all-time low.However, not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale. Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy “sportsmen” who want their skins and heads. At least ten international companies offer bear-hunting trips.1. What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?A. He is an animal scientist.B. He is a protector of animals working for the US government.C. He was asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.D. He offered to put polar bears on the endangered species list.2. Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?A. Because polar bears can’t catch enough food without sea ice.B. Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.C. Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.D. Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.3. After a six-month study, some scientists fear that ________.A. there is something wrong with their computersB. polar bears will disappear even faster than they ever expectedC. their computer models are not as accurate as they expectedD. global warming will destroy everything in the ArcticBThe British are known for their sense of humor. However, it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.Understatement means saying less than you think or feel. For example, if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say, “It’s a little damp(潮湿的)outside.” Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person, someone else might say, “She isn’t exactly friendly.” Understatement is often used in an unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly. Understatement plays an important part in British humor.Another key to understanding British humor is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others. They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidently falls over in the street. They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society. They like to make jokes about their accents, the way they dress and the way they behave. What’s more, the British love to watch comedies(喜剧)about people who do not know how to behave in society. The comedies series Mr. Bean is a good example of this kind of humor.Mr. Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990. Mr. Bean doesn’t talk often, and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh. Perhaps what makes Mr. Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do. Mr. Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor. Because of this, many people have become familiar with the British sense of humor.4. Why is it difficult for foreigners to understand British jokes?A. The British often enlarge the fact.B. British jokes are connected with many different cultures.C. British jokes are not as funny as jokes in other countries.D. The British try to make out that something is less important than it is.5. The author explains understatement by ________.A. describing a processB. making comparisonsC. following time orderD. using examples6. What can be the best title for the text?A. British Humor in ComedyB. Humor in Different CulturesC. Understanding British HumorD. Developing Your Sense of HumorCWhere do the turtles go?Every summer, thousands of endangered green sea turtles climb onto beaches around the world. Each mother sea turtle produces 100 or more eggs in a hole, and covers the hole with sand before she swims away.Two months later, the eggs hatch, and the baby turtles climb out of the sand andswim into the ocean. They don’t reappear until they have grown as large as dinner plates.Until now, no one knows where the baby turtles go or what they do.“If we don’t know where these little turtles are, we can’t protect them,” says KimReich, who helps solve part of the mystery.Her teacher, Karen Bjorndal, has studied green sea turtles for more than 30 years.Every year, Bjorndal goes to the Bahamas Islands. Many young sea turtles come here tolive and eat at the end of their childhood.These turtles are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters. In fact, their name may be a result of what they eat. The turtles don’t look green but they do have green fat. Scientists learned that the turtles eat green sea plants, which may turn their fat green.Between 2002 and 2004, Bjorndal caught 44 green sea turtles in the Bahamas. After testing them, she found something to support the 20-year-old idea: baby green sea turtles eat meat before they turn to a diet of plants. In fact, they eat animals that live in the open ocean.Scientists still need to find where exactly green sea turtles grow. We now know that baby green sea turtles are out in the open ocean, but the open ocean is a big place.“It is really a problem,” says Bjorndal. The discovery may help us do a better job of protecting this sea animal.7. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A. Baby turtles go to the ocean when they are three months old.B. Mother turtles leave the eggs alone after they produce them.C. No one knows when turtles appear on the beach.D. Mother turtles are as large as dinner plates.8. Kim Reich does research on where baby turtles go because she wants to ________.A. help her teacherB. prove an ideaC. protect turtlesD. become a scientist9. What does Karen Bjorndal’s research prove about green sea turtles?A. The young live in the Bahamas Islands.B. The young eat meat before turning to a diet of plants.C. They live in the open ocean for a lifelong time.D. They are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters.10. What does the underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Finding out where young turtles grow.B. Protecting this endangered sea animal.C. Changing young turtles’ eating habits.D. Living in the open ocean.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

But it is possible that in the future we will ask a different question. We might ask, “What do you play?”Computers and such things are making jobs more automatic and less demanding (依赖). Scientists tell us that one day very few people will have to work. Our society will be run by computers. And so we will all have a great deal of free time. And then games will be more important than jobs.Today games and play are a very important part of life. Today people are divided into social classes (社会阶层)because of the type of work they do. Tomorrow they may be divided because of the types of games they play.In the future, we may have “fun specialists,” just as we now have specialists in different types of work. It would be their job to show us how to get the most fun and enjoyment out of our spare time. And our society (社会) may be made up of sub-groups, such as surfers, skydivers, joggers, skiers, etc… Many of these subgroups may depend on technology (科技) to provide (提供)the equipment (设备)for their games.66. A common question we ask a stranger is ________.A. “What do you play?”B. “What do you do?”C. “What is your name?”D. “Where do you live?”67. Jobs now are less demanding because ________.A. we have many specialists who can do most of the jobsB. we have more and more working peopleC. we have computers and such things to help usD. our society is divided into sub-groups68. “Fun specialists” refer to (指的是) ________.A. a few people who still have to workB. sub-groups of societyC. people who would provide equipment for gamesD. people who would show us how to play well69. Future society may be made up of sub-groups according to what people ________.A. playB. doC. needD. have70. The best title for this passage is ________.A. Fun SpecialistsB. Future SocietyC.
