解答:

1. Q:What are the differences between competence and performance?

A:Competence refers to the knowledge that native speakers have of their language as a system of abstract formal relations, while performance refers to their actual linguistic behavior, that is, the actual use of this knowledge. Chomskys distinction represents a similar classification of knowledge and behavior and a similar dichotomy of the scope of linguistic inquiry. Chomskys competence is a psychological construct and de Saussures langue is a set of social conventions.

2. Q:What is Speech Act Theory?

A:Speech Act Theory was proposed by J.L.Austin and has been developed by J.R.Searle. Basically, they believe that language is not only used to inform or to describe things, it is often used to do things, to perform acts. It has three parts: Locutionary act ; Illocutionary act; Perlocutionary act. The locutionary act is the saying of it with its literal meaning. The illocutionary act can be a request. The perlocutionary act is the hearers reaction. 3. Q:What are the four maxims of the cooperative principle?

A: Make your conversational contribution as is required, at the stage at which it occurs, by the accepted purpose or direction of the exchange in which you are engaged. (1)The Maxim of Quality: Try to make your contribution one that is true.

(2)The Maxim of quantity: Make your contribution as informative as is required.

Do not make your contribution more informative than is required

(3)The Maxim of Relation: Be relevant (4)The Maxim of Manner: Be perspicuous

4. Q:What are the differences between modern linguistics and traditional grammar?

A:1.Traditional grammar is usually based on earlier grammars of Latin or Greek and applied to some other languages, often inappropriately.

2.Traditonall grammar emphasizes such matters as correctness, linguistic purism, literary

excellence, the use of Latin models and the priority of the written language.

3.Linguistics describes languages and does not lay down rules of correctness. Linguistics are interested in what is said, not what they think ought to be said. So they are often said to be descriptive, not prescriptive.

4.Linguistics regard the spoken language as primary, not written. It is believed that speech came into being first for any human language and the writing system came along much later.

5.Linguistics describes each language on its own merits. 5. Q:How do you understand language? Explain it in detail.

A:Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication. So, Language is a system---elements in it are not arranged and combined randomly, but according to some rules and principles.

Language is arbitrary---there is no intrinsic connection between the word and the thing. Language is vocal---the primary medium for all languages is sound.

Language is used for human communication---it is human-specific, very different from system of animal communication.
