问题 What do young people like to do in their speech?
The fact that magic is a frequent source of words of praise suggests that people ______.

选项 A、lack linguistic originality
B、have always been interested in magic
C、are becoming more superstitious
D、are interested in magic when young

答案B

解析 由题干magic is a frequent source of words of praise suggests定位到原文第三段第一句Magic is a theme that has regularly supplied words of praise (and the choice must betray something in our nature).推断题。由第三段第一句中可知,魔力能揭示人类本性中的东西,所以人们对其探求不懈,正是兴趣所在。故B)正确。[避错]A)人们对魔力词语的追求就是一种推出新词的过程,即对词语的创造力,选项意思恰与此意相反;C)意为“迷信”,而magic则是“a mysterious quality of enchantment”,两者是有区别的; D)选项意思错误。由第三段第一句Magic...has regularly...可以看出“magic”一直为人们所偏爱.过去如此,现在亦然,而D)“when young”对人们的行为加以限制,不符合文意。
