Sign has become a scientific hot【C1】________ . Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that signed languages are unique—a speech of the hand. They offer a new way to【C2】________ how the brain generates and understands language, and【C3】________ new light on an old scientific【C4】________ : whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born with, or it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has【C5】________ in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C., the world’s only liberal arts university for deaf people.
When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school【C6】________ him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something【C7】________ : among themselves, students signed differently from his classroom teacher. Stokoe had been taught a sort of gesture code, each movement of the hands representing a word in English. But Stokoe believed the “hand talk” his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually have a(n)【C8】________ language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955, when even deaf people【C9】________ their signing as "substandard" . Stokoe’s idea was academic heresy (异端邪说). It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books on ASL—is explaining how he started a【C10】________ . For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese.

I. throw J. odd K. real L. considered

【C9】
选项
答案
C
解析
习惯用法、词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入动词过去式,且能与as搭配。习惯用法有dismiss sth.as和consider sth.as。consider…as,regard…as,take…as都有“将……视作……”的含义,而dismiss sb./sth.(as sth.)“对某人/某事物不予理会或不屑一提”,含有贬义。此处原文暗示即使是聋哑人自己都很不屑这种语言,故选dismissed。
