The development of writing was one of the great human inventions. It is difficult【C1】______many people to imagine language without writing; the spoken word seems intricately tied to the written【C2】______.
But children speak【C3】______they learn to write. And millions of people in the world speak languages with【C4】______written form. Among these people oral literature abounds, and crucial knowledge【C5】______memorized and passed【C6】______generations. But human memory is short-lived, and the brain’s storage capacity is finite. 【C7】______overcame such problems and allowed communication across the miles【C8】______through the years and centuries. Writing permits a society【C9】______permanently record its poetry, its history and its technology.
It might be argued【C10】______today we have electronic means of recording sound and【C11】______to produce films and television, and thus writing is becoming obsolete. 【C12】______writ-ing became extinct, there would be no knowledge of electronics【C13】______TV technicians to study; there would be, in fact, little technology in years to【C14】______. There would be no film or TV scripts, no literature, no books, no mails, no newspapers, no science. There would be【C15】______advantages; no bad novels, junk mails, poison-pen letters, or "unreadable" income-tax forms, but the losses would outweigh the【C16】______.
There are almost as【C17】______legends and stories on the invention of writing as there are【C18】______the origin of language. Legend has it that Cadmus, Prince of Phoenicia and founder of the city of Thebes, 【C19】______the alphabet and brought it with him to Greece. In one Chinese fable the four-eyed dragon-god T’sang Chien invented writing. In【C20】______myths, the Babylonian god Nebo and the Egyptian god Thoth gave humans writing as well as speech.

选项
答案
Writing
解析
该空格应联系上句来填写。空格的前面句话“但是,人的记忆力是短暂的,大脑的信息储存是有限的”给你种暗示:没有书面形式的口头语言虽能被人们记住并通过上代向下代讲述传递,但它是有局限性的。而文章第句话就明确指出“书面写作形式的发展是人类的重大发明之”。无疑此空涉及的应是Writing人类重大发明之,能解释口头语言的局限性问题。
