| 1 | The article is dedicated to the analysis of the functional-semantic types of complex syntactic units in up-to-date social and political journalism. Various syntactic relations between the components of complex syntactic units, their structural peculiarities and means of boundaries are examined. The material of the research is presented by publications of “The Russian newspaper” of the 2015. The functional-pragmatic essence of complex syntactic units with different types of syntactic relations is revealed. The study of the newspaper’s material demonstrates that there are various syntactic relations observed in complex syntactic units: enumerative, opposed, contrastive, conjunctive, consecutive. It is noted that in spite of various syntactic relations between sentences in the complex syntactic unit every such construction manifests itself as indivisible solid formation, which presents a message as a consistent communicative unit. Keywords: a complex syntactic unit, ultraphrasal unity, syntactic relations, conjunctive construction, newspaperjournalistic style, sentence, indention | 1214 | ||||
| 2 | The ways of expressing comparison in the works of Yuri Polyakov are considered. The authors define the morphological and syntactic features of similes and their functions in an artistic text. Similes, accomplished with the help of conjunctions as, like, as if, as well as the other means of connection are allocated. Among them are the special forms of nouns (genitive and instrumental case), other parts of speech (prepositions, adjectives, participles, adverbs). The most frequent in the works of Y. Polyakov are comparative constructions with such lexical means as a preposition as, an adverb like, an adjective similar to, a participle resembling, having likeness. The author’s favorite form of expression of comparison, as our observations show, is predicative units, representing different types of subordinate compound sentences. In the novel of Y. Polyakov, there are constructions with a comparison in the predicative center with a predicative-noun, which is the rarest in fictional texts. A specific way of expressing the phenomenon under consideration in the work of Y. Polyakov is a description of situations based on comparison. In content the vast majority of Yuri Polyakov’s comparisons have a distinct individual character, they are unusual, original and thus picturesquely presented an individual author’s picture of the writer’s mindset, involve the reader in the world of the artist of the word.
