英语作文中的祝贺信【一】
许多研究语言中的歧义现象的学者都认为,我们说话和写文章都应力求“准确、简明、生动”,避免歧义。不过歧义也并不只有消极的作用。在我们的日常生活中,歧义同样也产生了积极的作用,如在商业广告、政治宣传中,歧义都达到了很好的幽默诙谐的效果。本文从语法、词汇和语音的角度分析了英语中的歧义类型。当然,有些提法还有待商榷(比如因“完全同形同音异义词”引起的词汇歧义,由“意义不同、但某些语法形式相同的词”引起的语音歧义等,以便进一步探讨。

1。thereof
以”there”为前缀加上介词构成的词，如thereafter， thereby， therein， thereinafter， thereinbefore， thereon， thereof， thereunder， thereupon， therewith等，在文中具体指什么，需要读者依照合同的上下文来判断，因而理解起来比较复杂，请看下例：
This Agreement is written in the English language。 In case of any discrepancy between the English version and any translation thereof， the English text shall govern。 句中”the English version and any translation thereof”从上下文判断意为 “the English version and any translation of the English version”，即thereof一词代替of the English version。与以here开头的词如hereof的理解方法类似。
2。therein
该词意为in that， in that particular
context， in that respect，“在那里”，“在那点上”，“在那方面”，表示上文已提及的“合同中的”“工程中的”。如：the contract or any part thereof意为the contract or any part of the contract，合同或合同的任何部分。
3。thereto
该词意为：to that，“随附”，“附之”，如：“Contract Products” means the products specified in Appendix 2 to this Contract， together with all improvements and modifications thereof or developments with respect thereto。 句中or developments with respect thereto 意为：or developments with respect to the developments。

When I was a freshman in college I watched the film Gua Sha Treatment for the first time, now I am a junior student and I come back to review the movie from a multicultural aspect, I have many different feelings after watching the film again.
At the beginning of the film, XuDatong is given an award and later he delivers a speech. What makes me impressed most is in his speech he says “one day I will become one of you, a truly successful American, today this award proved that America is a true land of opportunity and I am the living proof of that.” At that moment Xu thinks he has realized his American Dream totally with his lovingly wife and adorable son. However, I think it is ironical that to make a speech like that and I assume it is made on purpose to hind a clue for the story's development. How many non—American people have such a beautiful American dream? One of my classmate studies in American now and before he went aboard he told me his American dream is he can stand at the top of the New York. To be honest, I also dream that one day I can get the Green Card living there happily and successfully maybe working at the Wall Street. When Xu gets the award he thinks he entirely melted in the melting pot neglecting the multicultural obstruct, later the plot goes against the way he thinks. And later Quinlan asked Xu'why you be the scapegoat of your father?' Xu answers 'because he is Chinese.' Then maybe Xu knows that there is always a wide gap between Chinese and American cultures.
The second scene is Xu hit his son Denis because Denis hit the son of xu's boss, at the middle of the film xu tells his boss that he hit his own son is only to show his respect to his boss John Quinlan, that time Quinlan feels puzzled “what a Chinese logic”,yes, American can never understand such a logic full of Chinese characteristic, because they respect everyone including the children, they won't beat a child to please the boss, and there is no such a conception of degree between employee and employer, they feel everyone is equal, which is quite different from china.
Connected to the second scene, the third difference I want to analyze is the care for the children. In America, people pay more attention to the right of children which can be seen from the law—leaving children alone at home is illegal, while in China it is so common that almost everyone may experience such loneliness. And Children Welfare Agency does work in America which shows the importance Americans attach to children's right. What's more, I remember a line 'No one won the case, especially the child.' In my opinion, it also manifests the universal concern from the American public to the children.
The fourth aspect is following the procedure, in the film, more than there times, the people focus on the rule, the law, the procedure. At the Christmas Eve Xu wants to return back to his home pretending as a Santa Claus, what a pity, the security recognizes him and persuades 'you are always a good tenement, never causes troubles for me.' And another scene is at the end of the film , the judge says 'I have to follow the procedure.' However, in China people always have to ask for a favor to do something, and later you have to pay back the favor,for myself, I prefer the American style, strict to the procedure.
The fifth and the last point is the humors, Quinlan says 'you can't fall, your health security is the company paid.' 'Datong, welcome home, maybe next time, you can come from the front door.' 'dady, why you come from the window' ' because we don't have a chimney.' I really adore this distinguished American humor, especially in dangerous situations, which is quite rare in China.
That's my whole reaction to Gua Sha Treatment.

伍谦光(1995∶199指出:“‘词汇歧义’是指由于对句子中某一个词的意义有不同的理解而产生的歧义。”
2.1因“一词多义”(Polysemy引起的歧义
Robert.A.Hall指出“人们在各种不同场合赋予一个词以各种不同的意义。这些意义自然也就是这个词的真正涵义”(周立人,1997∶4。由此可见,一个词的词义往往是多义的。侯国金(1998∶66说:“一个词若具备两个或两个以上的意义便是‘多义词’。”因此,用多义词造句就可能产生歧义。当然,只要我们把多义词放到一定的语境里,一般可以避免歧义。不过有时我们会遇到一个多义词的两个不同意义在句子中都讲得通,这样,句子就产生了歧义。下面是一些实例:
2.1.1名词
(12Mr.Smith gave me a ring yesterday.
句子中的ring可理解为“戒指”,也可理解为“打电话”。
2.1.2动词
(13He painted a tree.
此句中的painted可作“涂上油漆”解,也可作“用颜料画”解。
2.1.3形容词
(14It is hard.
句中的hard可作“艰难的”解,又可作“坚硬的”解。
2.1.4副词
(15The man was walking backwards.
句中的backwards可作“向后”解,又可作“背朝后”解。
2.1.5介词
(16The vase is on the television.
此句中的on,可作“在……之上”解,也可作“上了电视屏幕”解。
2.1.6连词
(17Oil the machine in case it gets rusty.
句中的in case可解释为“以防”,也可解释为“如果”或“当……时候(尤其在美国英语中”。
2.1.7代词
(18You should be quiet.
句中的You可以是主格第二人称代词“你,你们”,也可以是不定人称代词,泛指“任何人”。
2.1.8数词
(19She is a mother of sixteen.
句中的基数词sixteen既可作“十六岁”解,又可作“十六个孩子”解。
2.1.9冠词
(20It can be moved by a child.
句中的不定冠词a既有数量的概念,即“one”的意义,也有种类的概念,即指孩子,而不是大人或其它什么东西。
2.2因“完全同形同音异义词”(Perfect homonyms引起的`歧义
林承璋(1997∶82认为:“同形同音异义是指两个或两个以上的词具有相同形式不同意义的现象。”具体来说,同形同音异义词是指意义不同、读音和拼写都相同或意义不同、但在读音或拼写某一方面相同的词。
完全同形同音异义中的B类由于读音、拼写和词性都相同,所以易引起歧义。下面是一些实例:
(21a.John drove to the bank.
b.He was attracted by the ball.
c.The tourists passed the port at midnight.
这三个例句中的bank,ball,port都属于完全同形同音异义词,即读音、拼写和词性都相同,但由于意义不同而引起了歧义。例(21a中的bank既可以理解为“银行”,又可以理解为“河岸”。例(21b中的ball既可以理解为“球”,又可以理解为“正式舞会”。例(21c中的port既可以理解为“港口”,又可以理解为“葡萄酒”。

1。Whereas
该词意为：considering that， “鉴于”，“就（而论”，常用于合同协议书的开头段落以引出合同双方订立合同的理由或依据。如：Whereas Party A desires to use the Patented Technology of Party B to manufacture and sell the Contract Products……鉴于甲方希望利用乙方的专利技术制造并销售合同产品。
2。Whereby
该词意为：by the agreement， by the following terms and conditions，“凭此协议”，“凭此条款”，常用于合同协议书中以引出合同当事人应承担的主要合同义务。如：
A sales contract refers to a contract whereby the seller transfers the ownership of an object to the buyer and the buyer pays the price for the object。 句中a contract whereby the seller transfers……意为：a contract by which the seller transfers……
以上是对外经贸合同英语中几个典型旧体词用词方面的重要的特点，笔者希望初涉外经贸合同的教师和学生予以留意，有针对性地学习，达到事半功倍的效果；也希望进行外贸合同写作时也能把握住这几个特点，写出好的外经贸合同，顺利地进行外贸业务往来。
英语作文中的祝贺信【七】
‘人生’觉得好伟大、神圣的一个词啊。我不是一位哲学家，也不是一位演说家，我呢，只是一名中学生，自认为自己没有什么资格、责任去谈天说地，特别是谈‘人生’。而今天在这里呢就是想说说自己心中的想法。
见笑了。
我觉得人生英语有着密不可分的关系，再细一点解释呢就是与英语中的时态息息相关。
当我们变成了一个风烛残年的老人。坐在摇椅上回想着我们这一生，每件往事都会清晰的浮现在眼前，任回忆说着过去时态的语言演绎着昨天的故事，那时的我们啊就是在温习英语中的‘过去时态’不是吗………。
破镜重圆时，我们啊乘坐着时间的飞船回到了中年时期。那时的`我们正在为自己的生活而努力奋斗着。在这个科技爆炸的现代化时代里，我们被生活践踏的体无完肤《话可能有点严重了》。我们得买房、买车，过上小康生活，要不都说现代人的生活节奏快呢，可能就是这个原因吧。所以啊，那时的我们就是演绎着英语中的‘现在进行时’不是吗………
现在呢，我们来到了人生中的黄金时期———青春期。青春是人生的花样年华，身处青春期的我们总是会憧憬着这样或那样的未来。这不就是英语中的‘一般将来时’吗………。
其实啊，不管怎样，无论是‘过去时’、‘现在时’、还是‘将来时’，都需要我们为现在的生活去努力、拼搏、奋斗不是吗………。
歌词写得好啊‘梦想是注定孤独的旅行，这路上少不了质疑和嘲笑，但那又怎样，哪怕遍体鳞伤，也要活得漂亮
。我为自己代言
最后呢，因为我也是一名初中生，即将面临着中考。在此呢，就祝愿普天下所有的中学生在中考中能考出一个好成绩、实现自己的梦想
悦。加油，相信你自己。加油加油加油………
谢谢观看……
