One of the liveliest debates in linguistics is over whether all
languages share fundamental properties. If so, perhaps language is a
universal feature of evolution. To find out, scholars have looked to
other universal features, and one in special:no society on Earth lacks【S1】________
music. The comparison illuminates that is special about both. 【S2】________
Music and language seem intimately linked, but how? Did
language start with song, as Darwin believed? Or is music “auditory
cheesecake” that developed of language and other useful faculties, as【S3】________
Steven Pinker, a Harvard psychologist, has said? Is music it a language, 【S4】________
as Stevie Wonder intoned? Might the two be fundamentally same?【S5】________
Some similarities are obvious. Both can utilise the unique human
vocal tract. Both have a kind of beat. Both can express emotion. Both
can be neither carefully composed or spontaneously improvised. And【S6】________
both are high social. Although the origin of music is unclear, it seems【S7】________
likely to have included celebration, communal worship or martial【S8】________
inspiration and co-ordination.
At a structural level the parallels are striking, too. With a finite set
of notes or words, and a finite set of rules, an inexhaustible variety of
novel melodies or sentences call be created. This “discrete infinity” is
often said to be a hallmark of human language. Animal communication, 【S9】________
by contrast, is only able to convey a limited number of thought(the【S10】________
location of a source of food, for example, or the presence of a
predator).
【S3】
选项
答案
of—form
解析
介词误用。联系上下文可知,该处意为“还是像哈佛大学心理学家史蒂文-平克所说的那样,音乐是从语言和其他有用的能力发展而来的‘听觉享受’?”表示“从……发展而来”时应使用develop from,故将介词of改为from。
