In an effort to explain how most of language, which is not so
directly relatable to meaning, derived from an onomatopoeic
beginning, the discipline of etymology began. Through studying
the derivational history of words(etymology)the naturalists tended to【M1】______
demonstrate that the origin of all of language was ultimately
relatable to words which directly reflected the meanings of their
referents.
The first philosophical forum on language eventually was【M2】______
developed into a discussion on the regularity of language patterns.
Two basic theoretical positions merged as explanatory frameworks【M3】______
for language, that which opted for irregularity and that which
insisted that language was essentially regular. From the
pre-eminence of latter position it became popular to explain the【M4】______
irregularities of language on the basis language somehow became【M5】______
corrupted with proper usage through time; this theoretical position【M6】______
regarded the older forms of language to be the pure forms.【M7】______
By the Nineteenth Century there was a severe reaction to the
highly speculative nature of the philosophizing about the original
language of man which had characterized much of the study of
language up until then. The interest was still historical, and the【M8】______
goal was not so idealistic. It was a romantic era of a rediscovery of
the national past; the mother tongues of nations and families of
nations rather than the mother tongue of the whole human race
became the focus of attention. The romantic nationalism was a
definite influence, but perhaps a more basic cause of the more real【M9】______
goal was the reaction to previously unscientific speculations.【M10】______
【M1】
选项
答案
tended一intended
解析
词汇错误。tend to do表示“倾向于做……”,intend to do表示“想要,打算做……”,此处要表达的意思是“博物学家想要证明语言的起源与那些直接反映其所指物意义的词相关。”故应把tend改为intend,符合上下文语义。
