人文知识内容总结

2005年的英语专业考试依照2004年新版的《高校英语专业八级纲》的有关规定,取消了快速阅读,取而代之的是人文知识,或者叫做文化常识题(GeneralKnowledge)。

那么到底这个题型考的是什么题,又有哪些内容呢?

  其实,英语专业的教学大纲对这一项并没有具体要求,但是八级纲则有以下四点说明:

  1.能基本了解主要英语国家的地理、历史、现状、文化传统等。

  2.能初步具备英语文学知识。

  3.能初步具备英语语言学知识。

  4.考试时间为10分钟。

  从纲里看,这一部分涉及到三个方面的内容:

英美文学,英语语言学和英语国家概况。

  其中英美文学包括英国文学和美国文学。

英国文学主要分为六个时期:

  1.OldandMedievalEnglishLiterature(中古英国文学)。

  2.TheRenaissancePeriod(文艺复兴时期)。

  3.TheNeoclassicalPeriod(新古典主义时期)。

  4.TheRomanticPeriod(时期)。

  5.TheVictorianPeriod(维多利亚时期)。

  6.TheModernPeriod(现代时期)。

  美国文学主要分为四个时期:

  1.TheLiteratureAroundtheRevolutionofIndependence(独立革命前后的文学)。

  2.AmericanRomanticism(美国浪漫主义文学)。

  3.AmericanRealism(美国现实主义文学)。

  4.AmericanModernism(美国现代主义文学)。

  语言学,考生不光要知道语言的本质还要掌握语音学,音位学,形态学,句法学,语义学和语言学的知识。

  关于英语国家概况,英语专业的学生都会开设英美概况这门课程,但是专八考试的中需要考生了解的是英语国家概况,不光包括英国和美国,还有其他一些说英语的地区,包括爱尔兰概况,加拿大概况,澳大利亚概况和新西兰概况。

根据对样题和试题做出的具体分析可以得出这样的结论:

试题挖掘的并不是很深,但涉及面比较广,着重考查学生在英语专业领域的知识面。

因此,我们可确定人文知识题的应对策略:

英语国家概况侧重英美、兼顾澳加新等国,掌握基本地理位置,通晓重大历史、政治事件,了解各国现状、文化传统。

英美文学着重掌握英美各时期的重要作家及其重要作品,以及基本文学概念。

语言学要熟练掌握基本概念,并能应用这些概念分析简单实例。
