Subject: HELP! gen.
Здравствуйте!
Мне очень, очень нужна Ваша помощь
Я студентка на лингвистическом.
Задали задание провести семантический анализ c опросом информантов-носителей языка, которые, к сожалению, не торопятся отвечать.
В приведенном ниже семантическом тесте нужно расставить баллы. Проверяется употребительность и совместимость слов в контексте.
Grade each of the sentences below according to the following scale:

Rating Meaning Comment
1 Acceptable, preferred Most frequent
2 Acceptable, not preferred Frequent
3 Not preferred Infrequent
4 Marginally acceptable Rare
5 Unacceptable Not occurring

Any of your comments will be highly appreciated!

разочарую Вас - здесь носителей тоже нема...
в ожидании оных можете сделать запрос в гугле - "корпус английского языка" (типа такого: http://www.natcorp.ox.ac.uk/)
вводите туда свои сочетания и изучайте их частотность
