How men first learned to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men,【C1】______animals, somehow invented certain【C2】______to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things,【C3】______they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed 【C4】_______ certain signs, called letters, which could be 【C5】_______ to represent those sounds, and which could be 【C6】_______ down. Those sounds, whether spoken, 【C7】_______ written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their【C8】______—the things they bring up before our minds. Words become 【C9】_______ with meaning for us by experience;【C10】______the longer we live, the more certain words【C11】______the happy and sad events of our past to us; and the more we read and【C12】______, the more the number of words that mean something to us【C13】______.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal【C14】______to our minds and emotions. This【C15】______and telling use of words is what we call【C16】______style. Above all, the real poet is a master of【C17】______. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which【C18】______their position and association can【C19】______men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will【C20】______our speech or writing silly and vulgar.
【C13】
选项
A、raises
B、increases
C、improves
D、emerges
答案
B
解析
本句意为“我们的阅读和______越丰富,对我们来说有意义的词语数量也______”。分析可知,空格处应填不及物动词,故首先排除raises。increase“增加”,improve“改善”,emerge “出现”,均不符合题意。且本句指词汇量的增加,故B项符合题意。
