Frequently used in both spoken and written language, you know, after a series of grammaticalizations, eventually evolves into a discourse marker which reflects speakers’ metapragmatic awareness to different degrees and performs different metapragmatic functions. Based on the COCA, this paper analyses the metapragmatic functions of the discourse marker you know according to Verschueren’s theory of Metapragmatic Awareness and the Relevance Theory proposed by Sperber and Wilson. It is found that you know has six metapragmatic functions: highlighting the information, giving further explanation, regulating turns in conversation, providing examples, making suggestions and maintaining relationships. By exploring the metapragmatic functions of you know, the relationship between you know and the metapragmatic awareness of language users is further revealed.展开更多

Chuang Tzu pointed out the phenomenon of person's being enslaved by the outside or material world was a common state of his time, yet this great pow er and its influence was ignored by people. About the source of this giant power,Chuang Tzu thought that it was the sage's goodw ill and the Confucianist moral and emotions and know ledge in their work and life that caused the alienation of the human na-ture. Thus there are two ways against the alienation; one is realistic that abandons all wise men and rulers,back to the primitive society,the other is idealistic,w hich is to abandon all wis-dom,care about noting and do nothing.展开更多
