Grice (1975), Y’s remark, which seems to be a statement, like a news announcement, is actually a refusal to the request. The first speaker (X) has to infer a lot, but easily: a) I made a proposal; b) I expected him to accept or decline, but he didn’t tell me in an explicit, direct way; c) so his illocution (言外行为) must be different from the literal meaning; d) I know that the study for an exam means a lot of time; e) going to the theatre means some time; f) he probably cannot do both in one evening; g) probably his primary illocutionary act is a rejection to my proposal. 6. Translation. Put this passage into English. (15 points) 丈夫：搞好了？ 妻子：我把灯都修好了。 对于旁人来说，丈夫的话似乎是在问妻子是否把灯修好了，实际交际往往比这更复杂。他可能问的是其他事，如“我的稿子你抄好了没有？”或者“投保的事搞好了没有？”但是妻子的回答（不是肯定，也不是否定，而是一个陈述）似乎与问话没有关联。但是只要他们双方具有共同的背景和一般的认知能力和推理能力，他一定能懂她的话，即言外之意、弦外之音。我们在现实交际中，从来不这样明说，总是间接表达言外之意。 Part Two: Writing. (40 points) Task 1 (15 points) 3 / 4
