CHAPTER 1英文

CHAPTER 1INTO THE PRIMITIVEOld longings nomadic leap,Chafing at custom's chain;Again from its brumal sleepWakens the ferine strain.Buck did not read the newspapers, or he would have known that trouble was brewing, not alone for himself, but for every tidewater dog, strong of muscle and with warm, long hair, from Puget Sound to San Diego. Because men, groping in the Arctic darkness, had found a yellow metal, and because steamship and transportation companies were booming the find, thousands of men were rushing into the Northland. These men wanted dogs, and the dogs they wanted were heavy dogs, with strong muscles by which to toil, and furry coats to protect them from the frost.Buck lived at a big house in the sun-kissed Santa Clara Valley. Judge Miller's place, it was called. It stood back from the road, half-hidden among the trees, through which glimpses could be caught of the wide cool veranda that ran around its four sides. The house was approached by graveled driveways which wound about through wide-spreading lawns and under the interlacing boughs of tall poplars. At the rear things were on even a more spacious scale than at the front. There were great stables, where a dozen grooms and boys held forth, rows of vine-clad servants' cottages, an endless and orderly array of outhouses, long grape arbors, green pastures, orchards, and berry patches. Then there was the pumping plant for the artesian well, and the big cement tank where Judge Miler's boys took their morning plunge and kept cool in the hot afternoon. And over this great demesne Buck ruled. Here he was born, and here he had lived the four years of his life. It was true, there were other dogs. There could not but be other dogs on so vast a place, but they did not count. They came and went, resided in the populous kennels, or lived obscurely in the recesses of the house after the fashion of Toots, the Japanese pug, or Ysabel, the Mexican hairless, strange creatures that rarely put nose out of doors or set foot to ground. On the other hand, there were the fox terriers, a score of them at least, who yelped fearful promises at Toots and Ysabel looking out of the windows at them and protected by a legion of housemaids armed with brooms and mops.But Buck was neither house dog nor kennel dog. The whole realm was his. He plunged into the swimming tank or went hunting with the Judge's sons; he escorted Mollie and Alice, the Judge's daughters, on long twilight or early morning rambles; on wintry nights he lay at the Judge's feet before the roaring library fire; he carried the Judge's grandsons on his back, or rolled them in the grass, and guarded their footsteps through wild adventures down to the fountain in the stable yard, and even beyond, where the paddocks were, and the berry patches. Among the terriers he stalked imperiously, and Toots and Ysabel he utterly ignored, for he was king--king over all creeping, crawling, flying things of Judge Miller's place, humans included.His father, Elmo, a huge St. Bernard, had been the Judge's inseparable companion, and Buck bid fair to follow in the way of his father. He was not so large--he weighed only one hundred and forty pounds--for his mother, She, had been a Scotch shepherd dog. Nevertheless, one hundred and forty pounds, to which was added the dignity that comes of good living and universal respect, enabled him to carry himself in right royal fashion. During the four years since his puppyhood hehad lived the life of a sated aristocrat; he had a fine pride in himself, was even a trifle egotistical, as country gentlemen sometimes become because of their insular situation. But he had saved himself by not becoming a mere pampered house dog. Hunting and kindred outdoor delights had kept down the fat and hardened his muscles; and to him, as to the cold-tubbing races, the love of water had been a tonic and a health preserver.And this was the manner of dog Buck was in the fall of 1897, when the Klondike strike dragged men from all the world into the frozen North. But Buck did not read the newspapers, and he did not know that Manuel, one of the gardener's helpers, was an undesirable acquaintance. Manuel had one besetting sin. He loved to play Chinese lottery. Also, in his gambling, he had one besetting weakness--faith in a system; and this made his damnation certain. For to play a system requires money, while the wages of a gardener's helper do not lap over the needs of a wife and numerous progeny.The Judge was at a meeting of the Raisin Growers' Association, and the boys were busy organizing an athletic club, on the memorable night of Manuel's treachery. No one saw him and Buck go off through the orchard on what Buck imagined was merely a stroll. And with the exception of a solitary man, no one saw them arrive at the little flag station known as College Park. This man talked with Manuel, and money chinked between them."You might wrap up the goods before you deliver them," the stranger said gruffly, and Manuel doubled a piece of stout rope around Buck's neck under the collar."Twist it, and you'll choke him plenty," said Manuel, and the stranger grunted a ready affirmative. Buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. To be sure, it was an unwonted performance but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. But when the ends of the rope were placed in the stranger's hands, he growled menacingly. He had merely intimated his displeasure, in his pride believing that to intimate was to command. But to his surprise the rope tightened around his neck, shutting off his breath. In a quick rage he sprang at the man, who met him halfway, grappled him close by the throat, and with a deft twist threw him over on his back. Then the rope tightened mercilessly, while Buck struggled in a fury, his tongue lolling out of his mouth and his great chest panting futilely. Never in all his life had he been so vilely treated, and never in all his life had he been so angry. But his strength ebbed, his eyes glazed, and he knew nothing when the train was flagged and the two men threw him into the baggage car.The next he knew, he was dimly aware that his tongue was hurting and that \he was being jolted along in some kind of a conveyance. The hoarse shriek of a locomotive whistling a crossing told him where he was. He had traveled too often with the Judge not to know the sensation of riding in a baggage car. He opened his eyes, and into them came the unbridled anger of a kidnaped king. The man sprang for his throat, but Buck was too quick for him. His jaws closed on the hand, nor did they relax till his senses were choked out of him once more."Yep, has fits," the man said, hiding his mangled hand from the baggage man, who had been attracted by the sounds of struggle. "I'm taking him up for the boss to 'Frisco. A crack dog doctor there thinks that he can cure him."Concerning that night's ride, the man spoke most eloquently for himself, in a little shed back of a saloon on the San Francisco water front."All I get is fifty for it," he grumbled, "and I wouldn't do it over for a thousand, cold cash."His hand was wrapped in a bloody handkerchief, and the right trouser leg was ripped from kneeto ankle."How much did the other mug get?" the saloon-keeper demanded."A hundred," was the reply. "Wouldn't take a sou less, so help me.""That makes a hundred and fifty," the saloon-keeper calculated, "and he's worth it, or I'm a squarehead."The kidnaper undid the bloody wrappings and looked at his lacerated hand. "If I don't get hydrophobia--""It'll be because you was born to hang," laughed the saloon-keeper. "Here, lend me a hand before you pull your freight," he added.Dazed, suffering intolerable pain from throat and tongue, with the life half throttled out of him, Buck attempted to face his tormentors. But he was thrown down and choked repeatedly, till they succeeded in filing the heavy brass collar from off his neck. Then the rope was removed, and he was flung into a cage-like crate.There he lay for the remainder of the weary night, nursing his wrath and wounded pride. He could not understand what it all meant. What did they want with him, these strange men? Why were they keeping him pent up in this narrow crate? He did not know why, but he felt oppressed by the vague sense of impending calamity. Several times during the night he sprang to his feet when the shed door rattled open, expecting to see the Judge, or the boys at least. But each time it was the bulging face of the saloon-keeper that peered in at him by the sickly light of a tallow candle. And each time the joyful bark that trembled in Buck's throat was twisted into a savage growl.But the saloon-keeper let him alone, and in the morning four men entered and picked up the crate. More tormentors, Buck decided, for they were evil-looking creatures, ragged and unkempt; and he stormed and raged at them through the bars. They only laughed and poked sticks at him, which he promptly assailed with his teeth till he realized that was what they wanted. Whereupon he lay down sullenly and allowed the crate to be lifted into a wagon. Then he, and the crate in which he was imprisoned, began a passage through many hands. Clerks in the express office took charge of him; he was carted about in another wagon; a truck carried him, with an assortment of boxes and parcels, upon a ferry steamer; he was trucked off the steamer into a great railway depot, and finally he was deposited in an express car.For two days and nights this express car was dragged along at the tail of shrieking locomotives; and for two days and nights Buck neither ate nor drank. In his anger he had met the first advances of the express messengers with growls, and they had retaliated by teasing him. When he flung himself against the bars, quivering and frothing, they laughed at him and taunted him. They growled and barked like detestable dogs, mewed, and flapped their arms and crowed. It was all very silly, he knew; but therefore the more outrage to his dignity, and his anger waxed and waxed. He did not mind the hunger so much, but the lack of water caused him severe suffering and fanned his wrath to fever-pitch. For that matter, high-strung and finely sensitive, the ill treatment had flung him into a fever, which was fed by the inflammation of his parched and swollen throat and tongue.He was glad for one thing: the rope was off his neck. That had given them an unfair advantage; but now that it was off, he would show them. They would never get another rope around his neck. Upon that he was resolved. For two days and nights he neither ate nor drank, and during those two days and nights of torment, he accumulated a fund of wrath that boded ill for whoeverfirst fell foul of him. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he was metamorphosed into a raging fiend. So changed was he that the Judge himself would not have recognized him; and the express messengers breathed with relief when they bundled him off the train at Seattle.Four men gingerly carried the crate from the wagon into a small, high-walled back yard. A stout man, with a red sweater that sagged generously at the neck, came out and signed the book for the driver. That was the man, Buck divined, the next tormentor, and he hurled himself savagely against the bars. The man smiled grimly, and brought a hatchet and a club."You ain't going to take him out now?" the driver asked."Sure," the man replied, driving the hatchet into the crate for a pry.There was an instantaneous scattering of the four men who had carried it in, and from safe perches on top the wall they prepared to watch the performance.Buck rushed at the splintering wood, sinking his teeth into it, surging and wrestling with it. Wherever the hatchet fell on the outside, he was there on the inside, snarling and growling, as furiously anxious to get out as the man in the red sweater was calmly intent on getting him out. "Now, you red-eyed devil," he said, when he had made an opening sufficient for the passage of Buck's body. At the same time he dropped the hatchet and shifted the club to his right hand. And Buck was truly a red-eyed devil, as he drew himself together for the spring, hair bristling, mouth foaming, a mad glitter in his bloodshot eyes. Straight at the man he launched his one hundred and forty pounds of fury, surcharged with the pent passion of two days and nights. In mid-air, just as his jaws were about to close on the man, he received a shock that checked his body and brought his teeth together with an agonizing clip. He whirled over, fetching the ground on his back and side. He had never been struck by a club in his life, and did not understand. With a snarl that was part bark and more scream he was again on his feet and launched into the air. And again the shock came and he was brought crushingly to the ground. This time he was aware that it was the club, but His madness knew no caution. A dozen times he charged, and as often the club broke the charge and smashed him down.After a particularly fierce blow he crawled to his feet, too dazed to rush. He staggered limply about, the blood flowing from nose and mouth and ears, his beautiful coat sprayed and flecked with bloody slaver. Then the man advanced and deliberately dealt him a frightful blow on the nose. All the pain he had endured was nothing compared with the exquisite agony of this. With a roar that was almost lion-like in its ferocity, he again hurled himself at the man. But the man, shifting the club from right to left, cooly caught him by the under jaw, at the same time wrenching downward and backward. Buck described a complete circle in the air, and half of another, then crashed to the ground on his head and chest.For the last time he rushed. The man struck the shrewd blow he had purposely withheld for so long, and Buck crumpled up and went down, knocked utterly senseless."He's no slouch at dog-breaking, that's what I say," one of the men on the wall cried with enthusiasm."Druther break cayuses any day, and twice on Sundays," was the reply of the driver, as he climbed on the wagon and started the horses.Buck's senses came back to him, but not his strength. He lay where he had fallen, and from there he watched the man in the red sweater." `Answers to the name of Buck,' " the man soliloquized, quoting from the saloon-keeper's letter which had announced the consignment of the crate and contents. "Well, Buck, my boy," he wenton in a genial voice, "we've had our little ruction, and the best thing we can do is to let it go at that. You've learned your place, and I know mine. Be a good dog and all will go well and the goose hang high. Be a bad dog, and I'll whale the stuffing outa you. Understand?"As he spoke he fearlessly patted the head he had so mercilessly pounded, and though Buck's hair involuntarily bristled at touch of the hand, he endured it without protest. When the man brought him water, he drank eagerly, and later bolted a generous meal of raw meat, chuck by chunk, from the man's hand.He was beaten (he knew that); but he was not broken. He saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. He had learned the lesson, and in all his afterlife he never forgot it. That club was a revelation. It was his introduction to the reign of primitive law, and he met the introduction halfway. The facts of life took on a fiercer aspect; and while he faced that aspect uncowed, he faced it with all the latent cunning of his nature aroused. As the days went by, other dogs came, in crates and at the ends of ropes, some docilely, and some raging and roaring as he had come; and, one and all, he watched them pass under the dominion of the man in the red sweater. Again and again, as he looked at each brutal performance, the lesson was driven home to Buck: a man with a club was a lawgiver, a master to be obeyed, though not necessarily conciliated. Of this last Buck was never guilty, though he did see beaten dogs that fawned upon the man, and wagged their tails, and licked his hand. Also he saw one dog, that would neither conciliate nor obey, finally killed in the struggle for mastery.Now and again men came, strangers, who talked excitedly, wheedlingly, and in all kinds of fashions to the man in the red sweater. And at such times that money passed between them the strangers took one or more of the dogs away with them. Buck wondered where they went, for they never came back; but the fear of the future was strong upon him, and he was glad each time when he was not selected.Yet his time came, in the end, in the form of a little weazened man who spat broken English and many strange and uncouth exclamations which Buck could not understand."Sacredam!" he cried, when his eyes lit upon Buck. "Dat one dam bully dog! Eh? How much?" "Three hundred, and a present at that," was the prompt reply of the man in the red sweater. "And seeing it's government money, you ain't got no kick coming, eh, Perrault?"Perrault grinned. Considering that the price of dogs had been boomed skyward by the unwonted demand, it was not an unfair sum for so fine an animal. The Canadian Government would be no loser, nor would its dispatches travel the slower. Perrault knew dogs, when he looked at Buck he knew that he was one in a thousand--"One in ten thousand," he commented mentally.Buck saw money pass between them, and was not surprised when Curly, a good-natured Newfoundland, and he were led away by the little weazened man. That was the last he saw of the man in the red sweater, and as Curly and he looked at receding Seattle from the deck of the Narwhal, it was the last he saw of the warm Southland. Curly and he were taken below by Perrault and turned over to a black-faced giant called Francois. Perrault was a French Canadian, and swarthy; but Francois was a French Canadian half-breed, and twice as swarthy. They were a new kind of men to Buck (of which he was destined to see many more), and while he developed no affection for them, he none the less grew honestly to respect them. He speedily learned that Perrault and Francois were fair men, calm and impartial in administering justice, and too wise in the way of dogs to be fooled by dogs.In the 'tween-decks of the Narwhal, Buck and Curly joined two other dogs. One of them was a big,snow-white fellow from Spitzbergen who had been brought away by a whaling captain, and who had later accompanied a Geological Survey into the Barrens.He was friendly, in a treacherous sort of way, smiling into one's face the while he meditated some underhand trick, as, for instance, when he stole from Buck's food at the first meal. As Buck sprang to punish him, the lash of Francois's whip sang through the air, reaching the culprit first; and nothing remained to Buck but to recover the bone. That was fair of Francois, he decided, and the half-breed began his rise in Buck's estimation.The other dog made no advances, nor received any; also, he did not attempt to steal from the newcomers. He was a gloomy, morose fellow, ant he showed Curly plainly that all he desired was to be left alone, and further, that there would be trouble if he were not left alone. "Dave" he was called, and he ate and slept, or yawned between times, and took interest in nothing, not even when the Narwhal crossed Queen Charlotte Sound and rolled and pitched and bucked like a thing possessed. When Buck and Curly grew excited, half-wild with fear, he raised his head as though annoyed, favored them with an incurious glance, yawned, and went to sleep again.Day and night the ship throbbed to the tireless pulse of the propeller, and though one day was very like another, it was apparent to Buck that the weather was steadily growing colder. At last, one morning, the propeller was quiet, and the Narwhal was pervaded with an atmosphere of excitement. He felt it, as did the other dogs, and knew that a change was at hand. Francois leashed them and brought them on deck. At the first step upon the cold surface, Buck's feet sank into a white mushy something very like mud. He sprang back with a snort. More of this white stuff was falling through the air. He shook himself, but more of it fell upon him. He sniffed it curiously, then licked some up on his tongue. It bit like fire, and the next instant was gone. This puzzled him. He tried it again, with the same results. The onlookers laughed uproariously, and he felt ashamed, he knew not why, for it was his first snow.IndexNextThis Free Ebook is ProducedBy "Eshu Space".Need More Free Ebooks, Pls Go To/。

Previously, he had called the discipline “positive philosophy”( social physics ), both to stress its scientific nature and to distinguish it from traditional philosophy. The aim of sociology, as he saw it, was to find the “invariable laws” of sociology upon which a new order could be based.

Over the years my English has improved, and I now consider myself bilingual, fluent in both Spanish and English, which is a plus in the hotel business. I have also studied French and can speak it fairly well. I have been a U.S citizen for the past two years.I received my bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois in 2004 and my master's degree from Northwestern University in 2006.

Fundamental views about language:⏹Children learn their native language swiftly, efficiently and withoutinstruction.⏹Language operates by rules.⏹All languages have three major components: a sound system, a system of lexicogrammar and a system of semantics.⏹Everyone speaks a dialect.⏹Language slowly changes.⏹Speakers of all language employ a range of styles and a set of jargons.⏹Languages are intimately related to the societies and individuals who use them.⏹Writing is derivative of speech.What is language? (p. 2)Different senses of the word “language”:1. Language is human speech;2. the ability to communicate by this means;3. a system of vocal sounds and combinations of such sounds to which meaning is attributed, used for the expression or communication of thoughts and feelings;4. the written representation of such a system (Webster's New World Dictionary)What is language?Our understanding and definition:Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication.How do you understand the underlined words?⏹A system----since elements in it are arranged according to certain rules systematically, rather than randomly. They cannot be arranged at will.⏹e.g. He the table cleaned. (×)⏹The child the street alone crossed. (×)⏹bkli (×) xbo (×)⏹Arbitrary----there is no intrinsic (logic) connection between alinguistic form and its meaning, between the sounds that people use and the objects to which these sounds refer.⏹Different language have different words for the same object.椅--chair;桌--table; 玫瑰--rosePeople might call a rose something else.⏹Symbols----words are just the symbols associated with objects, actions, and ideas by nothing but convention. Namely, people use the sounds or vocal forms to symbolize what they wish to refer to.⏹Vocal-------- the primary medium for all languages is sound, no matter how well developed their writing systems are. Writing systems came much later than the spoken forms.e. g. Small children learn and can only learn to speak and listen before they write or read indicates that language is primarily vocal, rather than written.People with little or no literacy can also be competent language users.⏹Human ----language is human-specific.Human beings have different kinds of brains and vocal capacity.“Language Acquisition Device”(LAD)What does it mean to“know’’ a language?1. knowing the sounds that are part of thelanguage and those that are note.g. Bach ch German sound outside the English sound system ,2. knowing which sounds may start a word, end a word, and follow each othere.g. English spelling & pronounciationph- phrase, phone, elephantpf- What’s the word?3. knowledge of a language enables you to combine words to form phrases, and phrases to form sentences, to be able to produce new sentences never spoken before and to understand sentences never heard beforeNoam Chomsky calls this ability ---the part of the creative aspect of language use.4.knowing what sentences are appropriate in various situationsThere are formal and informal situations. People also use formal and informal language in their communication.A professor talking with somebody:with another professor in the office;with the dean;with a child;with his wife;1.3 Design features of languageA question for you to consider:What makes our language advantageous over animal languages?e.g. the singing of the birdsthe dancing of the beesthe bark of the dogs1.3.1 Arbitrariness(任意性)(p. 4)According to Saussure, Arbitrariness refers to the fact that the formof linguistic signs bare no natural relationship to their meanings.⏹There is no logical connection between sound and meaning.⏹e.g. A dog might be a pig if only the first person of group of persons had used it for a pig.⏹Language is therefore largely arbitrary.Onomatopeic words⏹The linguistic sign and its meaning⏹They are words that sound like the sounds that describe.⏹In English: Bang, cuckoo, tick-tack, jingle, clink, crack, etc.⏹In Chinese: 叮咚,叮呤,咕咚,轰隆,咣铛But there are only few of these compared with the total number of words in one language.Arbitrariness at the syntactic levelAccording to systemic-functionalists, language is not arbitrary at the syntactic level.When we make up sentences, we must obey grammar rules. The sentences must be constructed according to the grammar of arrangement.Look at the sentences on p.5, which sentence is acceptable?1. He came in and sat down.2. He sat down and came in.3. He sat down after he came in.Arbitrariness and convention⏹The relation between a linguistic sign and its meaning is a matter of convention.⏹The linguistic forms and meaning are conventionally accepted.⏹When we learn a foreign language, the conventionality of the language is much more worth noticing than its arbitrariness.1.3.2 Duality(二重性)Look at the definition given by Lyons (1981: 20) on p.5: Language has two levels of structures:1. Sounds: (secondary units) a sequence of segments which lack anymeaning in themselves;The only function of the sounds is to combine with one another to form units that have meaning.2. Words: (primary units) Language is analyzed in terms of combinations of meaningful units.⏹The secondary units are meaningless.⏹The primary units have distinct and identifiable meaning. Discuss the following statement:Many animals communicate with special calls. But animal communication system do not have this design feature. Remember the following statements:(P. 6)⏹The lowest level of language consists of dozens of bits of meaningless sounds which occur in champs that we call syllables. A syllable is the smallest meaningless unit that is normally spoken. Scores of syllables become the carriers of hundreds of meaningful segments of words. With thousands of words we associate millions of meanings.⏹ A large number of different units can be formed out of a small number of elements—tens of thousands of words out of a small set of sounds, around 48 in the case of English.1.3.3 Creativity(创造性)⏹Creativity refers to the ability that we all have to construct and understand an definitely large number of sentences in our native language, including sentences that we have never heard before, but that are appropriate to the situation in which they are uttered.⏹The grammar rules and the words are finite, but thesentences are infinite. Every speaker uses language creatively.⏹Language is resourceful because of its duality and its recursiveness. We can use it to create new meanings.⏹Words can be used in new ways to mean new things, and can be instantly understood by people who have nevercome across that usage before.Examples of sentences:⏹He bought a book which was written by a teacher who taught in a school which was known for its graduateswho ...⏹She killed the man that visited the jeweler that made the ring that won the prize that was given at the fair that was held …1.3.4 Displacement(移位性)⏹Human languages enable their users to symbolize objects, events and concepts which are not present (in time and space) at the moment of communication.⏹Language can be used to refer to things real or imagined, past, present or future.Look at the two groups of words:Group A: Group B:Confucius North PoleGeorge Washington AmericaWilliam Shakespear Big BenKing George Sydney Opera HousePeople use language to describe the people and the places far away from them.1.4 Origin of Language⏹Scripture in the Bible:In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with the god, and the Word was God.And the lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and they begin to do; and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.(P. 8)⏹The bow-wow theory⏹The pooh-pooh theory⏹The yo-he-ho theory1.5 Functions of LanguageWe know that⏹Language is a tool for people to have communication.⏹Language is a tool for people to know the world.⏹Language is a tool for people to create artistic works.⏹For Jakobson, language is above all for communication.⏹In his famous article, Linguistics and Poetics, he defined six primary factors of any speech event, namely:⏹addresser, addressee, context, message, code, contact. (P.9)⏹ 1. Referential(所指功能)-- to convey message and information;⏹ 2. Poetic(诗学功能)-- to indulge in language for its own sake;⏹ 3. Emotive(感情功能)-- to express attitudes, feelings, emotions;⏹ 4. Conative(意动功能)-- to persuade and influence others through commands and requests;⏹ 5. Phatic(交感功能)-- to establish communion with others⏹ 6. Metalingual function(元功能)-- to clear up intentions and meanings;1.5.1 Informative(信息功能)⏹People use language to record facts and express thoughts. For example:a speaker / writer: supply informationa listener / reader: receive information1.5.2 Interpersonal function(人际功能)⏹It is the most important sociological use of language. People use language to establish and maintain status in a society and have different communicative roles.For example:The ways people address others and refer to themselves indicate the various grades of interpersonal relations.Dear Sir, Dear Professor,sincerely yours;Which sentence do you use if you speak politely?⏹Would you please pass me the salt?⏹Pass me the salt.⏹I need some salt.⏹I have been waiting for a long time.⏹You must stop using it. It is my turn.1.5.3 Performative(施为功能)⏹This function of language is to change the social status of persons. For example:⏹I apologize. (In the process of speaking the sentence, the speaker has already carried out the act of saying sorry to the listener. )⏹I advice you to give up smoking. ( In the process of speaking the sentence, the speaker has already carried out the act of giving advice. )1.5.4 Emotive function(感情功能)⏹It is so crucial in changing the emotional status of an audience for / against sth. or sb.For example:My goodness! (surprise)Dame it! (dislike or hatred)What a sight! (appreciation and like)Wow, Ugh, Ow (surprise, sympathy)1.5.5 Phatic communion(交感性谈话)⏹Some seemingly meaningless expressions are used to maintain good personal relations.Ritual exchanges about health, weather, etc.For example: Good morning. God bless you.Nice day. Good luck.Nice to meet you.1.5.6 Recreational function(娱乐功能)⏹The use of language for the sheer joyFor example:⏹Entertainment program⏹Verbal duelings: one person begins a few lines and challenges his opponent tocontinue the content or provide a rejoinder in a similar rhythm and rhyme scheme.⏹Children’s nursery rhymes;⏹Poetry writing: the pleasure of using language for its sheer beauty;1.5.7 Metalingual function(元功能)⏹Language is used to talk about itself.For example:1. Book (a word)Write a book to talk about “book”.2. Change the linear order of the sentence to organize a written text into a coherent one.For example:The lion chased the unicorn all around the town.All around the town the lion chased the unicorn.1.6 What is linguistics?(P. 14)Linguistics is usually defined as the science of language, or as the scientific study study of language.It has firmly established its place as a major branch of humanity and social science as well.1.7 Main branches of linguistics(Students are suggested to read this section by themselves.)⏹Phonetics 语音学⏹Phonology 音系学⏹Morphology 形态学⏹Syntax 句法学⏹Semantics 语义学⏹Pragmatics 语用学1.7.1 PhoneticsPhonetics studies speech sounds, including the production of speech, that is how speech sounds are actually made, transmitted and received, the sounds of speech, thedescription and classification of speech sounds, words and connected speech, etc.1.7.2 PhonologyPhonology studies the rules governing the structure, distribution, and sequencing of speech sounds and the shape of syllables. It deals with the sound system of a language by treating phoneme as he point of departure. A phoneme is the smallest linguistic unit of sound that can signal a difference in meaning. English has approximately forty-five phonemes. If you repeat the /p/ sound ten times, each production will vary slightly for some physiological reasons. In addition, the /p/ sound differs from that in poor or soup because each is influenced by the surrounding sounds. Even so, each /p/ sound is similar enough so as not to be confused with another phoneme.1.7.3 MorphologyMorphology is concerned with the internal organization of words. It studies the minimal units of meaning—morphemes and word-formation processes. Although many people think of words as the basic meaningful elements of a language, many words can be broken down into still smaller units, called morphemes. Morphemes serve different purposes. Some derive new words by changing the meaning or the part of speech, others only refine and give extra grammatical information about the already existing meaning of a word. As morphemes are pairings of sounds with meanings, there are many complexities involved.1.7.4 SyntaxSyntax is about principles of forming and understanding correct English sentences. The form or structure of sentence is governed by the rules of syntax. These specify word order, sentence organization, and the relationships between words word classes and other sentence elements. We know that words are organized into structures more than just word order.1.7.5 SemanticsSemantics examines how meaning is encoded in a language. It is not only concerned with meanings of words as lexical items, but also with levels of language below the word and above it, e.g. meaning of morphemes and sentences. The following are what the key concepts look like: semantic components, denotation of words, sense relations between words such as antonymy and synonymy, senserelations between sentences such as entailment and presupposition.1.7.6 PragmaticsPragmatics is the study of meaning in context. It deals with particular utterances in particular situations and is especially concerned with the various ways in which the many social contexts of language performance can influence interpretation. In other words, pragmatics is concerned with the way language is used to communicate rather than with the way language is structured. 1.8 Macrolinguistics(Students are suggested to read this section by themselves.)psycholinguisticsSociolinguisticsAnthropological linguisticsComputational linguistics1.9 Important distinctions of linguistics⏹Descriptive vs. prescriptive⏹Synchronic vs. diachronic⏹Langue & parole⏹Competence and performance1.9.1 Descriptive vs prescriptive(描写式与规定式)⏹In our textbook (P. 19): Don't say X. People don't say X.⏹The first is a prescriptive command, while the second is a descriptive statement.⏹The distinction lies in prescribing how things ought to be and describing how things are.⏹If the linguistic study aims to lay down rules for "correct and standard" behavior in using language, i.e. to tell people what they should say and what they should not say, it is said to be prescriptive.(e.g. Grammar)⏹In the 18th century, all the main European languages were studied prescriptively.⏹The grammarians then tried to lay down rules for the correct use of language and settle the disputes over usage once and for all.⏹Some usages were prescribed to be learned by heart, followed accurately or avoided altogether.⏹The nature of linguistics as a science determines its preoccupation with description instead of prescription.1.9.2 Synchronic vs diachronic(共时与历时)(p. 20)⏹Language exists in time and changes through time. The description of a language at some point of time in history is a synchronic study and most linguistic studies are of this type.A Grammar of Modern EnglishA Grammar of Modern GreekThe Structure of Shakespeare’s EnglishThey can be the description of a single present / past state of language.⏹The description of a language as it changes through time is a diachronic study. A diachronic study of language is a historical study; it studies the historical development of language over a period of time.1.9.3 Langue and parole(语言与言语)⏹Saussure distinguished the linguistic competence of the speaker and the actual phenomena or data of linguistics (utterances) as langue and parole.⏹Langue and parole are French words; Langue refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech community, and parole refers to the realization of langue in actual use.⏹Langue is the set of conventions and rules which language users all have to abide by, and parole is the concrete use of the conventions and the application of the rules.⏹Langue is abstract; it is not the language people actually use. Parole is concrete; it refers to the naturally occurring language events.⏹Langue is relatively stable, it does not change frequently; while parole varies from person to person, and from situation to situation.1.9.4 Competence and performance(语言能力与语言应用)⏹This fundamental distinction is discussed by Chomsky in hisAspects of the Theory of Syntax (1965).⏹Competence refers to the ideal user's knowledge of the rules of his language, and performance refers to the in linguistic communication. actual realization of this knowledgeDiscuss:Can a person who has perfect knowledge (excellent competence) of his language have excellent performance?⏹According to Chomsky, a speaker has internalized set of rules about his language, this enables him to produce and understand an infinitely large number of sentences and recognize sentences that are ungrammatical and ambiguous.⏹Despite his perfect knowledge of his own language, a speaker can still make mistakes in actual use, e. g., slips of the tongue, and unnecessary pauses. This imperfect performance is caused by social and psychological factors such as stress, anxiety, and embarrassment.Major points in this chapter:To sum up, students need to be familiar with the following points:⏹What is language?⏹Design features of language⏹Functions of language⏹Important distinctions of linguistics。

Warm-up Exercise
Placing is the process of transferring the fresh concrete from the conveying device to its final place in the forms. Prior to placing, loose rust must be removed from reinforcement, forms must be cleaned, and hardened surfaces of previous concrete lifts must be cleaned and treated appropriately. Placing and compacting are critical in their effect on the final quality of the concrete. Proper placement must avoid segregation, displacement of forms or of reinforcement in the forms, and poor bond between successive layers of concrete.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP_AND_VENTURE_CAPITAL_-_Chapter_1

ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND VENTURE CAPITALChapter 1: Introduction to EntrepreneurshipThe subject of entrepreneurship is receiving considerable attention worldwide in recent years as more and more people have discovered the opportunities that entrepreneurship presents to them. Further, in many countries in the world, starting and running your own business is the first, and often only, option for most people. Literally tens of millions of small businesses exist in all parts of the world. These small businesses provide the economic viability and well-being for billions of people. This text is designed to introduce this important topic in a new way as we focus our attention on the special tactics required to bring new technology to market, largely through the development of new companies.There are many sources for explanations of entrepreneurship and we will look a t a few of these. However, the purpose of this text is to examine the topic from the perspective of those who have access to new technology and who desire to commercialize that technology. In many instances, but certainly not all cases, this commercialization will result in the formation and development of a new company. We will examine the process of opportunity evaluation, business planning, and financing the new venture is significant detail in the chapters that follow. A good number of worksheets and planning guides will be provided so that the interested entrepreneur can be thorough in the business evaluation and planning. As much as anything, this book is a tool to assist you in planning a new venture and for creating the strategic and business plans that will give direction and substance to your planning.Defining EntrepreneurshipMany definitions of entrepreneurship have been offered over the last century. The word “entrepreneur” comes from a French word meaning “to do” or “to go between”. Another way of describing that meaning is that an entrepreneur attempts to go between two groups and do something of value for both groups. A dictionary definition of an entrepreneur is one who organizes, manages, and assumes the risk of a business. A definition that is very useful is that an entrepreneur innovates or creates for personal gain; takes the initiative to create wealth, and accepts personal risk of the activities.Other definitions include the following from students at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York:“An entrepreneur is a person who is willing to take risks in order to obtain positive results.”“An entrepreneur is one who organizes, manages, and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise.”“An entrepreneur is a person who has the vision and the drive to make a project happen.”“An entrepreneur is a person who a ssembles and deploys resources in new combinations that disrupt an otherwise static market.”“Entrepreneurship is the discovery of new combinations of resources under uncertain situations that generate profits as a reward for risk-taking.”An additional way to look at entrepreneurship is as the Austrian Economist Joseph Schumpeter did nearly 100 years ago. He emphasized the role of innovation in entrepreneurship, focusing on:∙New products∙New production methods∙New markets∙New forms of corporate organizationAccording to Schumpeter, wealth is created when innovation results in new demand with the entrepreneur combining input factors such as new technology or new procedures to generate value for the customer. The hope is that the value created for customer will exceed the cost of the inputs factors, resulting in superior returns to the entrepreneur.Peter Drucker, famous American management advisor and author, said, “Entrepreneurs innovate. Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship. It is the act that gives resources a new capacity to create wealth. Innovation, indeed, creates a resource.”We will use these definitions because of the emphasis we will take in this book about new and innovative technologies or procedures that give rise to entrepreneurial opportunities.Entrepreneurship is where the excitement of business really occurs. While we will emphasize that entrepreneurship usually results in the formation of a new company, we also understand that new technologies may more appropriately be used by existing companies, so there is an important role for innovation within existing companies of all sizes. But whether a new company is formed or an existing company is expanded, entrepreneurship is the creative outlet for those who are willing to innovate, create value, and take risk.’Entrepreneurship is where dreams and reality meet – or collide! It is where large companies have their small beginnings. Every large company today had its start as the entrepreneurial dream of its founders. Pick any large corporation in the world, and at some point in its history it started as a small operation, usually under with one or two founders who had a dream and were not afraid of the risks. These companies come in various shapes and sizes, have differing reasons and results; it is where time and talent are put to the test in the marketplace. Guy Kawasaki, a successful entrepreneur and teacher in the US, emphasized the role of action in entrepreneurship when he wrote, “…doing, not learning to do, is the essence of entrepreneurship.”1 The Germa n author Goethe said, “What you can do, or dream you can do, begin it! Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.”An example of such a new venture that has quickly grown to worldwide status is the Shanghai-based company called Focus Media. In 2002, Jason Jiang (**will need his Chinese name here**) observed that many Chinese will wait for elevators in the numerous buildings where they work and live. He decided that there would be an opportunity to advertise to these people as they wait for elevators. By 2003 he had secured contracts to put advertising screens next to these elevators in 50 locations in Shanghai. His risk taking innovation has proven to be auspicious! By 2008 Focus Media has nearly 200,000 screens in nearly 100 cities in China, resulting in revenues estimated to be about US$500 million with earnings of about US$150 million. The company is listed on NASDAQ (Ticker symbol FMCN) and has a market cap of nearly US$4 billion. This innovative idea has made Jason Jiang one of China’s richest young entrepreneurs.The example of Focus Media is exactly what Jeffry Timmons had in mind when he wrote his pioneering book on entrepreneurship entitled, New Venture Creation, Entrepreneurship for the 21st Century, “Entrepreneurs, as they invent, mold, recognize, and pursue opportunities, are the genius and energy behind this extraordinary value and wealth creation phenomenon: the entrepreneurial process.”2 Timmons further declared that, “Entrepreneurship…is arg uably the single most powerful force to create economic and social mobility.”3Entrepreneurship is both Art and ScienceArt and science are often thought of as very distinct disciplines. Artistic expression as exhibited in the arts is usually considered to be creative, impulsive, full of energy and emotion, and insightful. Science, on the other hand is more methodical, analytical, approached with a disciplined mind and a systematic approach. Just like the merging of two powerful rivers in Chongqing to form the mighty Chang Jiang, in entrepreneurship the merging of the two streamsof art and science are blended to form a powerful combination that stimulates economic growth worldwide. Entrepreneurship requires a good bit of artistry in creativity, energy, and insight. But accompanying such artistic flair is the disciplined, methodical analysis that must evaluate each opportunity and challenge in order to find solutions that will create value for customers and founders alike.The careful blending of both art and science in entrepreneurship is having tremendous results. “Entrepreneurs are driving a revolution that is transforming and renewing economies worldwide. Entrepreneurship is the essence of free enterprise, because the birth of new businesses gives a market economy its vitality. New and emerging businesses create a very large proportion of innovative products and services that transform the way we work and live, such as personal computers, software, the Internet…,biotechnology drugs…There has nev er been a better time to practice the art and science of entrepreneurship.”4One on-going study that shows the impact that entrepreneurship is having worldwide is the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM). Started in 1997, GEM looks at the economic impact and determinants of entrepreneurship in more than 50 countries worldwide. GEM defines two type of entrepreneurship: opportunity based and necessity based. In general, nations with high per capital income levels have more opportunity-based entrepreneurship and those nations with lower per capital income level see much more necessity driven entrepreneurship. GEM also reports that regardless of the income level of the countries, young people in the age group 25-34 years old are the most active in early stage ventures. But in all countries, except the Philippines, men are more likely to be the entrepreneurs, though women are gaining ground in the years since the study began. (For the full report for 2006 and prior years, go to/ and click on GEM Publications at the top of the page and then GEM Global Reports. You can then select the year of the report you want to read.)Entrepreneurship is about combining dreams and ambitions with analysis and discipline to achieve the best possible results for the customers and for the entrepreneurs. Art and science combine to make an opportunity emerge for the entrepreneur. The entrepreneur will identify a need or opportunity, create or develop a solution, and implement the solution in a way that creates value. Entrepreneurs perhaps take risks more than others, but they focus on the opportunity, have confidence in their dream and in their ability to make it happen. They prepare themselves carefully and systematically study the opportunity in order to reduce the risks to manageable levels. This combination of artistic flair and technical competence allows the entrepreneur to maximize the chances of success while minimizing the risk incurred. This bookwill help the entrepreneur unleash his or her creative powers while providing the tools for a systematic review of opportunities.。
