北外英美文学专业初试复试备考经验及 03—06真题 准备考研的时间不长，只有三个月，总结起来两大经验吧，细节和节奏。细节是说考研要做个有心人，要勤看别人的经验，即使不是一个方向的。因为虽然准备的内容不同，但过程都是一样的（讲到底也只有专二不同）。学习别人的经验自己才能避免走别人的弯路，犯别人犯过的错误。节奏是说时间的充分利用，时间不在长短而在效率的高低，要根据自己的情况制定合适的复习计划。在这里给大家小小的鼓励一下：永远不要觉得时间不够用，也永远不要觉得这是不可能完成的的任务。当然要基于自身实力和现实的考虑，我相信大家都明白我的意思。等到真正做到了，你就是那个“传说”。 政治：六十多分没什么经验。。。。。。总的感觉是过线不拉分就好因为进入复试政治和二外就不算分了，不要给自己太大的压力，不要浪费过多的时间，节省下来精力好好看专业。 法语：学校用的是很老的橘黄色皮的《法语》，先复习一遍，把忘掉的知识捡回来。然后把历年真题研究一遍，考察的知识点就那么多，有的题基本没变隔年又考一次。从图书馆借来新大学法语1-3，从头到尾梳理知识点整理笔记。因为知道考什么，所以看得有重点。借书的好处之一就是“书非借不能读也”，借来的总要还，有压力就看得快了，而且借的书都少都有点笔记，看看也是很好的。
基英：分阅读，翻译和写作三个部分。像名字一样就是考察英语的基础，所以投机取巧是不可取的，要稳扎稳打地不间断复习。阅读--每天精读一篇1500字左右的新闻，有用的词句整理出来，有兴趣的段落翻一翻，阅读是最好的输入方式，扩大阅读量不言而喻，也对写作和翻译大有益处。翻译--练了叶子南里面几个靠谱的文章，订在一起没事看看，每翻译一篇都会看到自己逐步的进步，翻译得逐渐成熟。写作—写作看的是内容、结构和语法。虽然在考场上不可能三方面都完美，但是写的时候有这样的意识在脑子里，偏也偏不到哪里去。基础自认为还是不错的，所以每天的复习就是一个routine，保持对英语的娴熟度，主要的精力都集中在复习专业上了。 专业：文学选段匹配+小说分析，今年取消了逻辑题。虽然文学的复习范围没边没沿，文学著作浩如烟海；但是恶俗的讲一句，只要是考试，它就有它的侧重点和一定的规律。文学选段匹配--本着上一原则，我把历年真题找来统计了一下每年考得上都是谁的作品，集中在哪几部作品上。统计过后发现大概十人左右而且都是大家Mark Twain, Charles Dicke ns, Wordsworth…然后就拜读他们的大作就好了。小说的话要先看看写作风格，像总考的adventures of huckleberry finn，如果没读过现读是来不及的，但只要了解马克吐温的写作风格，就会在看到南方方言的第一时间想到他老人家。诗歌

What’s symbolism? 1）Symbolism is a movement in literature and the visual arts that originated in France in the late 19th century. In literature, symbolism was an aesthetic movement that encouraged writers to express their ideas, feelings, and values by means of symbols or suggestions rather than by direct statements. Hawthorne and Melville are masters of symbolism in America in the 19th century. 2）举例。
48. “Young Goodman Brown ”is one of Hawthorne ’s most profound tales. What is the allegorical meaning of Brown, the protagonist? What does Hawthorne set out to prove in this tale? How does Melville comment on Hawthorne ’s manner of concerning with guilt and evil?
**ELIZABETH **4. A comparison of the three giants: William Dean Howells; Mark Twain; and Henry James They are the three dominant figures of the realistic period. The forerunner of American Realism is Howells. Though the three writers wrote more or less at the same time, they differed in their understanding of the “truth.”While Mark Twain and Howells seemed to have paid more attention to the “life”of the Americans, Henry James had apparently laid a greater emphasis on the “inner world”of man. Though Twain and Howells both shared the same concern in presenting the truth of the American society, they had each of them different emphasis. Howells focused his discussion on the rising middle class and the way they lived, while Twain preferred to have his own region and people at the forefront of his stories. This particular concern about the local character of a region came about as “local colorism,”a unique variation (变体) of American literary realism.

英语专业考研：英语综合题型盘点及备考指导 “综合英语”其实正确的名称叫做“英语综合”，是一个比较复杂的概念，是针对“基础英语”概念而提出。如果说基础英语考查学生对读写译基础和词汇表达的掌握，那么“英语综合”就是对英语下设的具体方向知识的考查。英语综合类具体方向比较多，包括文学、语言学、文化、教育等等，其中以英美文学、语言学和翻译理论与实践最多。 1.About专业 英语语言文学的专业代号是050201，一般下设的具体方向为英美文学。部分综合类大学的“英语语言文学”方向包括翻译理论与实践，也有的大学的这一专业包含了语言学方向。外国语大学类的方向更多，包括教学法、XX英语国家研究、跨文化交际等等。对外经贸的一大特色是商务英语。传媒大学有两大特色：一是影视翻译，二是英语播音。 有的学校单独把语言学抽出来单独作为一个方向，并赋予一个为050211的代号，所属的二级学科是“外国语言学及应用语言学”，简称是我们老百姓所说的“语言学”。这个学科下面的方向包括应用语言学、理论语言学、外语教育等等。北京外国语大学还包括X英汉同声传译，但这个我觉得是个“语言学”里面的例外，毕竟人家属于高翻学院，真正的方向是“翻译理论与实践”。从名称上来看，这个专业不限于英语专业报考，其他语种专业的学生也可以报考的，比如说上！外！ 而对于“翻译学”（一般为0502Z1），也不能说是最偏门的方向，只不过单独把它作为一个方向的学校比较少 2.About科目代号 无论是“英语语言文学”还是“外国语言学及应用语言学”，抑或是“翻译学”，除了“基础英语”这门课之外，另外一门基本考查考生的专业知识。北京外国语大学的050201专业的第二门专业课为英语能力测试（写作），上海外国语大学此专业的第二门专业课为824英汉互译（你说牛不牛，学个英美文学也得考互译T^T），其余学校，大家看看就好。 部分学校部分科目举例 941英语语言文学（北师） 861综合英语（对外经贸，考查语言综合运用能力，不涉及专业知识）811英语语言文学基础知识（中国传媒大学） 870英语语言文学综合二（中国政法大学，文学、语言学、翻译出一张卷子上） 815~818文学、教学法、翻译理论与实践、英美文化方向（人大） 857综合考试（清华，语言学和文学专业都考这个） 813英美文学史（复旦） 801英语综合（武汉大学，语言学文学都在一张卷子上）而对于050211外国语言学及应用语言学，大部分学校都会考“语言学综合知识”这一科，北外的外研中心的语料库语言学方向会考816语料库语言学，然而上外的语言研究院的两门专业课都很“特儿”：640考外国语言学和应用语言学理论，中英文七三开（中文70%，英文30%），另外一科是X汉互译。 至于再偏门一点的“翻译学”，专业课也就考英汉互译或翻译综合之类的。
