英语专业英美文学方向06年研究生入学考试初、复试总结

terminatxxx

Question 1: 关于词汇量,我发现凭专八的词汇量不是那么能够自由表达,而且还有高难度的翻译,这两个方面是我比较担心的.

你能做到扎实地掌握和运用专八的词汇就很不错了,自由表达是我们要切近的一种理想状态,不必因不能至而焦虑不安.今天刚刚上了南大外院的一门专业课,授课者是知名的学者,我也不觉得他的英文口头表达到了自由的境界.还是那句话,词汇或翻译有很多是我们平时积累下来的东西,备考时在这些方面的专门投入只有部分的作用.你不放心就做些针对性的练习.

Question 2: 此外英美文学,我不是考南京大学,学校指定的教材里面甚至连专有名词都没有,我该如何处理?

如果你是问如何应对文学术语释义这样的题目,建议你买一本外语教学与研究出版社出的<A GLOSSAY OF LITERARY TERMS>,可以从简总结一些条目.注意一定要从简单,因为其中有些条目作者写得很深很详尽,超出了考研的要求.

秋风悲歌

多谢了！
下午来看了下帖，感觉有种莫名的惊悸。一向自负的我骤然发现自己的不足，所谓“会当凌绝顶，一览众山小”应该是在学姐那样的高度吧！
其实我准备考研的时间很短，好多东西以前都不曾知道，所以有时候感觉很迷惘。唯一坚定的信念就是我一定要考上，年复一年，决不放弃。
我现在最苦恼的是我不知道该到哪里去找一些材料辅助阅读和分析，希望学姐可以给我提供些帮助，我已经存了学姐的邮箱，我也把我的留下吧，以后还有好多地方还得仰仗学姐和各位研友呢

感谢师兄的回复
再请教一个问题,学校指定的教材里面对于有些作品没有引用,比如,the cantebury tales,教材中只有the general prologue,那是不是别的章节就不会考呢?我要熟悉到什么程度?还有,关于Yeats,教材中只有他的一篇The Second Coming 但是2004年的试卷上有他的其他作品出现,我是不是要把所有教材上提到他的作品都要熟悉?谢谢!

Given the heavy academic load, prompt replies are quite unlikey in the future. Sorry for this.

学校指定的教材里面对于有些作品没有引用,比如,the cantebury tales,教材中只有the general prologue,那是不是别的章节就不会考呢?我要熟悉到什么程度?

Nobody knows for certain wheather other chapters of Cantebury Tales will be included or not in the exam of 2007. All you can and need to do is to understand thoroughly the excerpt adopted in the textbook and develop a high degree of familiarity with it. This applies to each and every excerpt in the textbook. As for the degree of familiarity you should reach, it should be such that you know with little difficulty the author and title upon seeing any passage taken from an excerpt and that you recall with comparative ease the general plot of and important events and characters in the excerpt.

还有,关于Yeats,教材中只有他的一篇The Second Coming 但是2004年的试卷上有他的其他作品出现,我是不是要把所有教材上提到他的作品都要熟悉?

It is certainly preferable that you acquaint yourself with all the works of the authors listed in the textbook. But this is impracticable and in most cases unnecessary. That would simply be too time consuming. It is all too natural for an examinee to encounter things he or she is not familiar with in an exam paper. In such cases, despite your unfamiliarity with the materials being dealt with, you have that ability to comprehend and a stock in the mind of acquired literay knowledge. You need to mobilize every resource you have and do the best you can when being examined.

Dear terminatxxx, first I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your enthusiastic
advice and philanthropic way of instruucting people out of haziness and into a clearer future
that lies ahead. I can never forget my excitement when I, for the first time, came across
your article that finds a suitable platform for pursuers who are so devoted themselves to the
field in English and American Literature. What impresses me most is your scintilling(to quote
your own words) diction in Chinese. Your excellence in words is such an inspiration for me. I
am now on my way for 2007 graduation exma and Nanking University is my dreaming shrine
to fulfill my long desiring expectation. I have some problems in Comprehensive English Test,
which mostly revolves around vocabulary. How many words should a man master to call a
ideal proficiency? GRE enough? I am looking forward to your promt reply and expertise advice.
