When one looks back the fifteen hundred years that are the life span of 1,______
the English language, he should be able to notice a number of significant
truth. The history of our language has always been a history of constant 2.______
change—at times a slow, almost imperceptible change, at other times
a violent crash between two languages. Our language has always been 3.______
a lively growing organism, it has never been static. Another significant 4.______
truth that emerges from such a study is that language at all times has been
the possession not of one class or group but many. At one extreme it has 5.______
been the property of the common, ignorant folk, who have used it in the
daily business of their living, much as they have used their animals or the
kitchen pots and pans. At the other extreme it has been the treasure of those
who have respected it for an instrument and a sign of civilization, and 6.______
who have struggled by writing it down to give it some permanence, order,
dignity, and if possible, a little beauty.
While we consider our changing language, we should note here two 7.______
developments that are of special and immediate importance to us. One
is that since the time of the Anglo-Saxons there has an almost complete 8.______
reversion of the different devices for showing the relationship of words in 9.______
a sentence. Anglo-Saxon (old English) was a language of many inflections,
Modern English has few inflections. We must now depend largely on word
order and function words to convey the meanings that the older language
did by means of changes in the pronunciations of words. 10. ______
选项
答案
pronunciations——froms
解析
本题为逻辑错误。上文讲到老式英语与新式英语的一大差异在于inflections,即词尾变化,因此差异在于单词的构成,而不是读音。
