问题     From what has been said, it must be clear that no one can make
very positive statements about how language originated. There is
no material in any language today and in the earliest records of                   【B1】 ______
ancient languages show us language in a new and emerging state.                    【B2】 ______
It is often said, of course, that the language originated in cries of              【B3】 ______
anger, fear, pain and pleasure, and the necessary evidence is                      【B4】 ______
entirely lacking: there are no remote tribes, no ancient records,
providing evidence of a language with a large proportion of such                   【B5】 ______
cries than we find in English. It is true that the absence of such
evidence does not disprove the theory, but in other grounds too the                【B6】 ______
theory is not very attractive. People of all races and languages
make rather similar noises in return to pain or pleasure. The fact                 【B7】 ______
that such noises are similar on the lips of Frenchmen and
Malaysians whose languages are utterly different, serves to
emphasize on the fundamental difference between these noises and                   【B8】 ______
language proper. We may say that the cries of pain or chortles of
amusement are largely-reflex actions, instinctive to large extent,                 【B9】 ______
whereas language proper does not consist of signs but of these that                【B10】 ______
have to be learnt and that are wholly conventional.
