【正确答案】正确答案：(a) The verb drink represents a behavior of the animate beings, therefore, it is required that the subject of this verb should have a semantic feature as (+ ANIMATE) , however, the word television , which is in position of subject, has an opposite feature; (- ANIMATE). That's why such a collocation results in oddness. (b) The action of writing poetry is normally one which only human beings could do, therefore, the subject is required to have a semantic feature as (+ HUMAN) ; however, the word dog in the subject position is featured as (- HUMAN). Therefore, the sentence is odd.
