问题     We use language every day. We live in a world of words.
Hardly any moment passes with someone talking, writing or【S1】______
reading. Indeed, language is most essential to mankind. Our life
increasingly depends on fast and successful use of language.【S2】______
Strangely enough, we know more about things around us than that of【S3】______
ourselves. For example, language is species-specific, that is, it is
language that differs human from animals. However, we do not【S4】______
know yet how exactly we inquire language and how it is possible for【S5】______
us to perceive through language; so do we understand precisely the【S6】______
relationships between language and thought, language and logic, or
language and culture; still more, how and when language started.【S7】______
One reason why this inadequate knowledge of language is that we,【S8】______
language users, take too many things for granted. Language comes
to every normal person so naturally that a few of us stop to question【S9】______
what language is, much less do we feel the necessity to study it.
Language is far more complex than most people have probably
imagined and the necessity to study it is much greater than some
people may have assumed. Linguistics is a branch of science which
takes language like its object of investigation.【S10】______
【S5】

选项

答案inquire—acquire

解析 词义混淆。inquire意为“询问,查究”,acquire意为“获得,取得”。此处意为“但是我们不知道自己到底是如何获得语言的”,故使用acquire更为恰当。
