Standard English is the variety of English which is usually used in print and which is normally taught in schools and to non-native speakers learning the language. It is also the variety which is normally 21 by educated people and used in news broadcasts and other 22 situations. The difference between standard and nonstandard, it should be noted, has 23 in principle to do with differences between formal and colloquial 24; standard English has colloquial as well as formal variants.
25 , the standard variety of English is based on the London 26 of English that developed after the Norman Conquest resulted in the removal of the Court from Winchester to London. This dialect became the one 27 by the educated, and it was developed and promoted 28 a model, or norm, for wider and wider segments of society. It was also the 29 that was carried overseas, but not one unaffected by such export. Today, 30 English is arranged to the extent that the grammar and vocabulary of English are 31 the same everywhere in the world where English is used; 32 among local standards is really quite minor, 33 the Singapore, South Africa, and Irish varieties are really very 34 different from one another so far as grammar and vocabulary are 35 . Indeed, Standard English is so powerful that it exerts a tremendous 36 on all local varieties, to the extent that many of long-established dialects of England have 37 much of their vigor and there is considerable pressure on them to be 38 . This latter situation is not unique 39 English; it is also true in other countries where processes of standardization are 40 . But it sometimes creates problems for speakers who try to strike some kind of compromise between local norms and national, even supranational (跨国的) ones.
选项
A、same
B、similar
C、equal
D、identical
答案
B
解析
此题属于语意搭配题。similar表示“类似的,想像的,不是同一的”,例如:The twohouses are very similar in appearance.原句谈及标准英语使用的情况或场合,由other一词可知这种场合不是与news broadcasts一样的场合,而是相似的场合,故选项[B]similar正确。选项[A]same表示“相同的,同一的”,例如:The same mistake occurs threetimes in the paragraph.同样的错误出现了三次。选项[C]equal表示“(指事物在数量价值方面)相等的,平等的,胜任的”,例如:(1)We divided the cake into three equal parts.(2)He was equal to the occasion.他能应付这场面。选项[D]identical表示“同一的,完全相同的”,例如:(1)It’s the identical coat which was stolen from me.(2)The tests are identical to those carried out last year.全句可译为:它通常指用于印刷品的书面英语,在学校里所教授的英语。它也指那些受过教育的人所使用的英语。标准英语也常常用于新闻广播或其他类似的场合。
