One of the most interesting of all studies is the study of words and word origins. Each language is【C1】________ of several earlier languages and the words of a language can sometimes be traced back through two or three different languages to their【C2】________. Again a word from one language may pass into other languages and develop a new meaning.
The word "etiquette," which is of French origin and originally meant a label, or a sign, passed into Spanish and kept its original meaning. So in Spanish the word "etiquette" today is used to【C3】________ the small tags which a store【C4】________ to a suit, a dress or a bottle. The word "etiquette" in French, however, gradually developed a different meaning. It later became the custom to write【C5】________ on small cards, or "etiquette", as to how visitors should dress themselves and act during an important ceremony at the royal court. Thus the word "etiquette" began to indicate a system of correct【C6】________ for people to follow. With this meaning, the word passed into English.
Consider the word "breakfast". "To fast" is to go for some period of time without eating. Thus in the morning after many hours during the night without food, one【C7】________ one’s fast.
Consider the everyday English【C8】________"Good-bye". Many many years ago, people would say to each other on【C9】________ "God be with you." As this was repeated over and over millions of times, it gradually became【C10】________ to "Good-bye".
【C3】
选项
答案
L
解析
空格处为be used to do结构,故空格处应填入动词原形,且为及物动词。词库中符合这一语法要求的只有L项indicate,此外,上文提到etiquette原来在法语中是指标签(Infant a label),并且在传入西班牙语之后“仍保留了原来的意思”。由此可推断etiquette在如今的西班牙语中还是指标签,the small tags跟label意思相近,因此空格处应填入跟meant意思相近的词,词库中的indicate“表示;暗示;表明”代入后符合语境。
