Every profession or trade, every art, and every science has its technical vocabulary, the function of【C1】______is partly to【C2】______things or processes with no names in ordinary English, and partly to secure greater exactness in terminology.【C3】______, they save time, for it is much more【C4】______to name a process than describe it. Thousands of these technical terms are very【C5】______included in every large dictionary, yet, as a whole, they are rather【C6】______the outskirts of the English language than actually within its borders.
Different occupations, however, differ【C7】______in their special vocabularies. It【C8】______largely of native words, or of borrowed words that have【C9】______themselves into the very fibre of our language.【C10】______, though highly technical in many details, these vocabularies are more familiar in sound, and more generally【C11】______than most other technical terms.【C12】______, every vocation still possesses a large【C13】______of technical terms that remain essentially foreign, even【C14】______educated people. And the proportion has been much【C15】______in the last fifty years. Most of the newly【C16】______terms are【C17】______to special discussions, and seldom get into general literature or conversation. Yet no profession is nowadays, as all professions once【C18】______a close federation. What is called "popular science" makes everybody【C19】______with modern views and recent discoveries. Any important experiment,【C20】______made in a remote or provincial laboratory, is at once reported in the newspapers, and everybody is soon talking about it. Thus, our common speech is always taking up new technical terms and making them commonplace.
【C2】
选项
A、describe
B、talk about
C、designate
D、indicate
答案
C
解析
根据上下文可知空白处所填单词为动词,表示专业词汇的作用与things or processes连用,该动词与process构成并列关系。A选项describe意为“描述”,B选项talk about意为“谈论,讨论”,C选项designate意为“标明,表示”,D选项indicate意为“指出,显示”。根据句意,B和D能很快排除,最大干扰项是A,再往下读两句会发现“for it is much more XXX to name a process than describe it”,也就是专业词汇的作用与描述它们构成比较级,所以,C项designate是正确答案,意为“专业词汇的部分作用是在没有常规英文名称的情况下表示事物或过程”。
