📖 題組:
Science is an _______ field; that is, it develops a body of knowledge by observing things and performing experiments. The deliberate process of gathering and analyzing data is called ‘the scientific method’ or ‘the scientific study.’ People often have this misconception of Linguistics not being a scientific study. Let us see whether Linguistics is indeed a scientific study of language. Etymologically, Linguistics is a scientific study of language. Like all the other sciences, Linguistics has a well-defined subject matter. It employs careful methods to observe, record and analyze various phenomena related to its subject matter, and hopes to present verifiable descriptions. Linguistics is based on observation, formation of hypothesis, testing, and verification. Some methods of observation include simple listening, phonetic transcription, and use of various instruments such as pitch makers. Linguists also have laboratories where they perform all these procedures in studying languages. They firstly observe linguistic events, make a hypothesis, and test to make it verifiable or provable as that of a scientific experiment. Thus, we can say that Linguistics is indeed a scientific study of language.
According to paragraph 3, what is the general procedure of a piece of linguistic research?
  • A observe, analyze, describe, relate
  • B observe, analyze, hypothesize, verify
  • C observe, hypothesize, test, verify
  • D observe, record, analyze, listen
  • E observe, record, listen, analyze

思路引導 VIP

請試著思考:當科學家觀察到一個有趣的現象,但還不確定背後原因時,他們通常會先提出一個「暫時性的解釋」;接著,為了證明這個解釋是否正確,他們又必須進行哪一種實際的操作,來讓這個解釋變得可信呢?

恭喜你精準地掌握了文章的細節!你能從第三段的敘述中,正確篩選出語言學作為科學研究的標準作業程序,展現了非常優秀的資訊檢索與邏輯對應能力。

科學研究的邏輯脈絡

這道題目的核心在於驗證**科學方法(Scientific Method)**的實踐。根據文章第三段的描述,語言學家的研究流程具有高度的系統性:首先是「觀察(observe)」語言事件,接著根據觀察結果「提出假設(make a hypothesis)」,隨後進行「測試(test)」,最後則是確保研究結果是「可驗證的(verifiable/verify)」。這四個步驟環環相扣,構成了一個完整的實證科學循環。
