The article presents an analysis of English and Russian-language Internet reviews of hotels in different countries and cities. The main purpose of the study is to identify the specific features of reviews in two languages in order to formulate clear criteria for automatic determining the tone of the text. On the basis of the existing works of linguists in this field, the author has identified the main directions of research on various issues related to the specifics of Internet reviews. Among others, gender and language specificity of reviews were noted, regardless of comparing their characteristics in two unrelated languages. The research undertaken focuses on the basic means of expressing positive, negative, or neutral tones in two languages, which is an interdisciplinary problem that combines work on the issues of selecting tone criteria for automatic text processing, as well as linguistic problems of language specificity of reviews, allowing to identify the main parameters for automatic tone detection on the basis of the most frequent specific features. The main results of the study are specific distinguishing features of English- and Russian-language reviews, the general and the particular in their characteristics. The most active means involved in the formation of a review are the frequent use of genre-specific lexemes, especially with positive or negative emotional and expressive coloring, combining words in a sentence, the role of negation, grammatical forms of verbs, the use of quantitative adverbs, adjectives in the superlative degree, etc.

This article is devoted to the problem of using Russian time-prepositions by foreigners, especially by the Chinese. An analysis of modern literature allows the author to identify the main areas of the work aimed at foreign students’ development of the skills and abilities to correctly build the prepositional combinations and continuously improve the communication skills by means of the Russian language. In this paper, the time-prepositions in the Russian language have been analyzed in detail; some examples of polysemantic use of prepositions, their semantic and stylistic shades alongside with possible errors made by foreign students are presented. The results of the study are to help in developing a system of teaching Russian time-prepositions to a foreign language audience, taking into account their native language, on the basis of the systemic and functional, communicative and activity-centred basis. The role of Russian time-prepositions in constructing word combinations has been identified; the need for foreign students’ close attention to this secondary part of speech has been specified. It has been stated that prepositions are the most dynamic and open type of secondary language units within the quantitative and qualitative composition of which regular changes take place. The research substantiates the need that students should be aware of the function of time-preposition in speech; they are to get acquainted with the main time-prepositions and their meanings, to distinguish prepositions and other homonymous parts of speech as well as to learn stylistic shades of time-prepositions. Some recommendations related to the means of mastering time-prepositions have been given: to target speakers to assimilate modern literary norms and, therefore, to teach them how to choose and use them correctly by means of linguistic keys that are intended to fill the word with true meaning, to give it an organic structure, an inherent form and an easy combinability in the texts and oral speech.

This chapter discusses the main distinguishing features of two liberal traditions—classical liberalism and what I call “the high liberal tradition”—and their respective positions regarding capitalism as an economic and social system. It also compares the two traditions’ different positions regarding equality of opportunity and the distributive role of markets in establishing economic justice. I critically assess the classical liberal principle that economic agents deserve to be rewarded according to their marginal contribution to economic product. The chapter concludes with some reflections upon the essential role that dissimilar conceptions of persons and society play in grounding the different positions on economic justice that classical and high liberals advocate.
