问题     In every cultivated language there are two great classes of words which, taken together, comprises the whole vocabulary. First, there are those words【1】which we become acquainted in daily conversation, which we【2】, that is to say, from the【3】of our own family and from our familiar associates, and【4】we should know and use【5】we could not read or write. They【6】the common things of life, and are the stock in trade of all who【7】the language. Such words may be called "popular", since they belong to the people【8】and are not the exclusive【9】of a limited class.  
    On the other hand, our language【10】a multitude of words which are comparatively【11】used in ordinary conversation. Their meanings are known to every educated person, but there is little【12】to use them at home or in the market-place. Our【13】acquaintance with them comes not from our mother’s【14】or from the talk of our school-mates,【15】from books that we read, lectures that we【16】, or the more【17】conversation of highly educated speakers who are discussing some particular【18】in a style appropriately elevated above the habitual【19】of everyday life. Such words are called "learned", and the【20】between them and the "popular" words is of great importance to a right understanding of linguistic process.

选项 A、prospect
B、way
C、reason
D、necessity

答案D

解析 句意:每一个有文化的人都懂得这些词语的意思,但在家中或在市场上却几乎毫无必要使用这些词语。此题主要是区别这四个名词的词义。prospect前景;way方式;necessity必要性;reason理由。因此necessity符合题意。
