Take an example to show that oral language differs from written language in manners of production.
【正确答案】:Oral language differs from written language in manners of production. The speaker has available to him the whole range of body language (voice qualities, facial expressions, postures, gestures, etc. which we will discuss in the next chapter). So his speech must be interpreted in relation to body language that accompanies his speech. Thus the speaker who says “I, d really like to” is more likely to be interpreted to mean what he says if he says it with a warm, breathy voice, while leaning forward and smiling than a speaker who says it with a sneering, nasal voice, while leaning away and with brow puckered.
