出版社：外语教学与研究出版社,2000

简介：　　"The theoretical discussions are excellent. The Scollons provide a unique combination of all the essential topies in cross-cultural communication, a sophisticated and original theoretical framework, and an unusually well-organized and concise presentation of the material. The book in extrmely well written: it is cleaar and full of telling examples. I can't imagine a better treatment of the topic.'Deboran Tannen, Georgetown University. 　　 "The Scollons mix contemporary linguistic anthropology with modern concerns over intercultural communication and forge a creative, important blend. Their lively and accessible approach will enlighten anyone who lives and works in our culturally diverse world,'Michael Agar, University of Maryland. 　　 This volume is a lively introduction and practical guide to the main concepts and principal problems of intercultural communication. Viewed from within the framework of interactive sociolinguistics associated with Tannen, Gumperz, and others, the authors focus in particular on the discourse of Asians and of westemers, the discourse of men and women, corporate discourse and the discourse of professional organizations, and intergenerational discourse. While making use of research in pragmatics, discourse analysis organizational communication, social psychology, and the ethnography of communication, this book presents students, researchers, and practitioners with a comprehensive and unified framework for the analysis of discourse. 　　 Ron Scollon and suzanne wong scollon have written extensively on cross-cultural communication, from academic positions in North american universities as well as in Taiwan. south Korea, and Hong Kong, and in consultancies with over fifty governmental and corporate organizations in North America and Asia.

An Introduction to Discourse Analysis:Theory and Method

作者：  [美]James Paul Gee著;杨信彰导读

出版社：外语教学与研究出版社,2000

简介：　　"If you only read one book on discourse analysis, this is the one to read. Gee shows us that discourse analysis is about a lot more than linguistic study; it's about how to keep from, as he says, 'getting physically, socially, culturally, or morally “bitten”by the world'.” ron scollon, Georgetown University James Paul Gee presents here his unique integrated approach to discourse analysis: the analysis of spoden and written language as it is used to enact social and cultural perspectives and identities. Assuming no prior knowledge of linguistics, James Paul Gee presents both a theory of language-in-use, as well as a method of research. This method is made up of a set of "tools of inquiry" and strategies for using them. Clearly structured and written in a highly acceesible style. the book presents these tools of inquiry alongside the theory of language-in-use. They are then placed in the framework of an overall approach to discourse analysis. Finally an extended example of discourse analysis is presented using some of the tools and strategies developed earlier in the book. Perspectives from a variety of approaches and disciplines, including applied linguistics, educaion. Psychology. anthropology, and comunication, are incorporated to help students and scholars from a range of backgrounds formulate their own views on discourse and engage in their own discourse analyses. James Paul Gee is the tashia Morgridge Professor of Reading at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. His previous publications include social inguistics and iteracies, the social Mind, and The New Work order(with Glynda Hull and Colin Lankshear).

Patterns in Language:Stylistics for Students of Language and Literature

作者：  [英]Joanna Thornborrow，[英]Shan Wareing著;刘世生导读

出版社：北京大学出版社,2000

简介：　　How can linguisties help you enjoy literature? 　　 What do writers do with language? 　　 This student-friendly textbook uses the principles of linguistic analysis to investigate the use of language in literary (and non-literary)texts. Patterns in Language communicates how linguistic knowledge can enhance and enrich the analysis of texts. 　　 The authors borrow from traditional stylistics but focus primarily on the recuring linguistic patterns used by writers. Using a wide variety of imaginative and stimulating textual examples, the authors encompass both classic and contemporary lierature, drama and poetry (including James Joyce and Alice Walker. Shakespeare: Dennis Potter and Tom Stoppard; Emily Dickinson and Sylvia Plath)as well as popular fiction and adverts. User-friendly features include: Clear explanations of the phonetic, syntactie, semantic and discoursal properties of language. Numerous tasks, a checklist for analysis and suggestions for further reading in each chapter. An answer key and a glossary of terms. 　　 Patterns in language assumes little or no prior knowledge of linguistic theory or literature.It is therefore ideal for students of English language, linguistics, and English literature, as well as for non-native speakers of English studying English as a foreign language.　　

Typology and Universala

作者：  [英]William Croft;沈家煊导读

出版社：外语教学与研究出版社,2000

简介：　　Comparison of the grammars of human lagnuages reveals systematic patterns of variation. research in typology and universals attempts to uncover those patterns. to formulate the universal constraints on language that define those patterns, and to seek explanations for the universals. In this volume, the first of its kind, william Croft provides the reader with a comprehensive introduction to the method and theory used in typology-universals research. together with an overview of basic grammatical differences between languages. He discusses theoretical issues ranging from the most fundamental-on what basis can the arammars of diverse languages be compared?-to the most absttact-what is the role of fuctional and historical explanation of language universals? -and gives extensive illustration from the world's languages. several case studies also provide extended examples of the methodologies applied to specific problems. As well as explicating basic concepts established in the last thirty years. current areas of typological research are thoroughly covered (including some discussion of phonological typology). The author demonstrates how complex patterns of cross-linguistic variation. such as hierarchies and prototypes. are built on the basic patterns of implicational universals and markedness. He also draws together contemporary research on cross-linguistic patterns of the form-meaning relation and on universals of language change, and shows how a new approach to limguistic explanation, the "functional-typological" or "dynamic" paradigm, has evolved in the last decade. 　　This textbook will appeal to scholars and students alike in linguistics and anthropology.

Americans and their culture:an interpretation of perception, thinking, behavior, values and tradition

作者：  周毅著

出版社：四川大学出版社,2010

简介：　　In this book, Dr. Zhou rethinks the evolution of the American history and criticizes the values and styles of life held by Americans. The focus on the cultural aspects of ordinary American people found in this book is unusual among Chinese scholars； and he seeks to make contributions to developing the cross-cultural communicative competence and the global horizon of young Chinese. Like any other writer of an introductory book, he exerts himself to make connections with other fields and find appropriate examples from the literature or his research experience. I think that Americans and Their Culture is an exciting book which goes far towards providing Chinese university students with a new perspective from which to understand the American culture. Though the book is aimed at undergraduate courses and introductory graduate seminars on the American history and culture, researchers interested in selected topics should be able to read selectively without feeling lost.

出版社：机械工业出版社,2011

简介：　　 You are holding in your hand a book that will most likely 　　change the way you think about learning and speaking English.The 　　fact that you bought this book is proof you really want to improve 　　your spoken English.You have studied English under many different 　　teachers,probably all very skilled.You have taken English 　　exams.You've studied with lots of English textbooks,but you are 　　not satisfied with your present ability to communicate in 　　English.Nowyou have chosen to read a book that will take you 　　beyond classroom and textbook study,intothe real world of freely 　　speaking English. 　　 Although I've taught Oral English classes for more than twelve 　　years,I prefer to call them byanother name.I like to refer to 　　those classes,and the topic of this book,as 　　EnglishCommunication.Why do we study a foreign language? For that 　　matter,why do we even learnour own mother language? ls it not for 　　the purpose of communicating with other people? Whatabout English? 　　 People all over the world are learning English so they can 　　communicate with people fromEnglish speaking countries.They also 　　study Engtish to talk with non-native English speakers fromother 　　nations who have learned to speak English.The purpose of language 　　is communication.Therefore,in this book sometimes the words Oral 　　English or Spoken English are replaced withEnglish 　　Communication.That's why we learn language to communicate with 　　people. 　　 Lots of people in China study English.Far less people can 　　actually communicate well in thislanguage.Some are satisfied with 　　high exam scores.Others just want to pass their Englishclasses so 　　they can move on to other courses.Many people are only interested 　　in being able toread English,especially if they have to read 　　English instructions for their jobs or understandEnglish on the 　　computer.These are all good reasons to study English,but the 　　contents of thisbook are designed for people like you: People who 　　are not satisfied with just passing examsand reading,people who 　　are eager to go out and really commuhicate with this language. 　　 You are reading this book,instead of just studying another 　　textbook: This shows that you arenow ready to take the next step 　　toward successful English commuhication.Fluentcommunication takes 　　more than just studying.It takes action.It requires taking the 　　actions youare preparing to read about in the following chapters. 　　 The methods for improving your English communication skills in 　　this book are notcomplicated.They are not meant to be complicated 　　because the best ways to improve oralEnglish are not 　　complicated.In fact,most of this book is written in very simple 　　English.There's no need to make your training any more complex 　　than it needs to be.I often tell mystudents,Spoken English is not 　　complicated,but it isn't easy either.It's simple,but hardwork.It 　　does require self-discipline but it doesn't have to be so complex 　　that nobody canfigure out what it means. 　　 In my experience teaching English in China,I have found that 　　some of the worst Englishspeakers were also the most complex 　　ones.I've tried to make them understand that simple isbetter,but 　　they are not willing to listen.They have believed for years that 　　complicated is morescholarly.Sadly,those students will never be 　　good English communicators.They are theones who will just read a 　　few chapters of this book,then throw it aside and proudly say,This 　　book is too simple.They will go back to their complicated 　　scholarly books andcontinue becoming worse and worse at speaking 　　natural English. 　　 On the other hand,there are wise people,like you,who will see 　　the simplicity of this bookand honestly say,Maybe this foreigner 　　really does know what he is talking about.I'll give ita try.These 　　people may or may not already be good at speaking English,but they 　　have abright future of fluently and freely communicating in 　　English.They don't care if proud peoplelook down on them for their 　　simple approach.They are not worried about higher exam scoresof 　　their classmates.They are willing to try the methods in this 　　book,and,while the others arejust becoming more complicated,they 　　will become the best English communicators in China.- or,where 　　ever in the world they want to go. 　　 As you read this handy guide,I hope you will feel my heart.I 　　hope you will realize.th:at Ilove China and Chinese people.I 　　really want you to succeed.The whole world is speakingEnglish 　　today,and I want you,my Chinese friend,to be one of the best of 　　those English.speakers.I want you to go out and communicate freely 　　with the rest of the world.I wantYOU to be able to effectively use 　　English in your job.Whether you go abroad or make friendswith 　　intemational visitors in China,I want YOUR English conversations 　　to be fluent andnatural.As you read this book and try these 　　methods,I invite YOU to join me in the great adventure of the real 　　world of English communication!

Chicken Soup for the Single’s Soul

作者：  [美]Jack Canfield等编著

出版社：安徽科学技术出版社,2001

简介：　　Welcome to Chicken Soup for the Single's Soul/ For the first time in history,there are more single people than married people in our society. If you are reading this book,it is likely that you have never been married ,or have become divorced or widowed. 　　This is a book that shares the love,the challenges and the unique joys of being single. 　　Whether you are single by choice or by circumstance ,these stories will show you that you are not alone. 　　When we started this book,our intention was to compile a collection of stories that would address the many types of single people from the twenty year-old never married man or woman,to the fifty-year old divorcee,to the eighty-year old widower. And we discovered that the opportunities and challenges facing this diverse group of people are numerousand often inspiring. 　　For example, we included stories about being Single and Happy an unprecedented trend in our country. For the firsttime,many people are choosing to remain single for a lifetime -.-something that was almost inconceivable even twenty years ago. 　　On the other hand, it's impossible to talk about being single without addressing the desires that so many single people have regarding relationships. Many single people want to have a relationship ,and that's why we have included chapters on Dating and Finding Your Mate. 　　Still others are in the process of letting go of a relation ship or'grieving the loss of a love. 　　The stories in Single A gain deal with rebuilding life after divorce. The stories in Losing a Partner share experiences of healing after the death of a partner. 　　Then there are single parents! Thirty three percent of all families in the United States are now headed by a single parent. We hope the stories in Single Parenting will touch the hearts of single mothers and fathers everywhere and eneour age them on their journey. 　　One of the most rewarding aspects of working on this book has been discovering the strength and commitment many single people have to making their own lives fulfilling and enriching the lives of others. You will find their stories in our chapter on Making a Difference. 　　We have also included stories about the incredible support available in many ways for single people. In our chapter We Are Not Alone,we see the support that often appears when least expected or in miraculous ways. In the chapter called Friends and Family, we see the power of the support that comes from the deep bonds of family and important friend ships. 　　Finally,there's love. Love is the most powerful force in the universe. While we often think of love in terms of a mar riage or intimate relationship,it's very clear that love comes in many forms. And in a world where 50 percent of the population is now single, we recognize that love is not just for those in relationships. In fact,it is the common thread that binds the many different kinds of stories in Chicken Soup for the Single's Soul. 　　So in the spirit of love,we offer this book to single people everywhere. No matter what your circumstance in life as a sing e person,we hope these stor es open your heart and give you a vision of life's possibilities. May your path be filled with joy and the magical touch of love wherever you find it.
