While the strong version believes that languagepatterns determine people's thinking and behavior, the weak one holds that formerinfluences the latter.(全背)3.eg.

(While the strong one suggests that children must acquire their first language by puberty or they will never be able to learn from subsequent exposurethe weak holds that language learning will be more difficult and incomplete after puberty.)二十七、what is a behaviorist view of language acquisition?(语言习得的行为主义主要观点是什么?)(书本P141)Traditional behaviorists view language as a kind of behavior and believe that language learning is simply a matter of imitation and habit formation.[An innatist view of language acquisition: Chomsky proposed that human beings are born with an innate ability known as Language Acquisition Device, or LAD.UniversalGrammar (UG)An interactionist view of language acquisition]二十八、what is bilingualism?(双语能力)(书本P122)Ability to speak two languages equally well.二十九、What is Spoonerism?(斯本内现象,首音互换)(书本P186)Transposition of initial consonants in a pair of words.eg.
