问题 According to Mc Whorter, the decline of formal English ______.
To which of the following statements would McWhorter most likely agree?

选项 A、Logical thinking is not necessarily related to the way we talk.
B、Black English can be more expressive than standard English.
C、Non standard varieties of human language are just as entertaining.
D、Of all the varieties, standard English Can best convey complex ideas.

答案A

解析 本题考查的是对文章第四段内容的理解,本段最后一句中谈到许多人认为由于我们谈话不准确,我们将不能有条理地思考,而麦克沃特则和他们不同,即,麦克沃特认为有逻辑的思考和说话方式没有必然关系,A项与此意相符,所以为答案。B是对本段第三句话前半部分的误解,文中说所有种类的语言,包括像黑人英语,都具有强大的表达能力,而并没有对黑人英语和标准英语的表达能力进行比较;C是对本段第一句话的错误理解,句中的entertaining指的是一些例子有趣,并不是说不标准的语言有趣;D则是对第三句的误解,文中指出麦克沃特认为所有语言都具有强大的表达能力,世上不存在无法传达复杂思想的语言或方言,即所有的语言都可以传递复杂的思想,没有好坏之分,所以D是不对的。
