41. In Unit 3, there is a paragraph as follows:
"'" when we say that in Chinese chess there are five 'soldiers', we must realize that
they are abstract soldiers which carl be materialized in any solid substance. The abstract
'soldiers' are made 'soldiers' because there are rules dictating the way they are used in the
game.
......
You may argue that we cannot say that the materials of which Chinese chess is made are
not significant. For instance, wood chess pieces can be less expensive than stone ones. Or
magnetic chess pieces can be hung on the wall so that an audience can watch players play.
Your reasoning is sound, but is irrelevant to the point we talk about. Our question is what
makes a 'soldier' a soldier in Chinese chess. Your objection is about the differences in chess
material."
Discuss the ways in which words are like the chess pieces.
（答案）
41. The discussion should includes the following points:
(1)words are also abstract;
(2)they can be materialized in a cluster of sounds, or strokes, or letters;
(3)words become words, not because they are made of these materials, but because
they are used together with other words in communication;
the physical sounds or strokes can be important to some people, e.g. calligraphers, but
calligraphy has little to do with linguistics.
