Many foreigners who have not visited Britain call all the inhabitants English, for they are used to thinking of the British Isles as England.【C1】______, the British Isles contain a variety of peoples, and only the people of England call themselves English. The others【C2】______to themselves as Welsh, Scottish, or Irish,【C3】______the case may be; they are often slightly annoyed【C4】______being classified as "English".
Even in England there are many【C5】______in regional character and speech. The chief【C6】______is between southern England and northern England. South of a【C7】______going from Bristol to London, people speak the type of English usually learnt by foreign students,【C8】______there are local variations.
Further north regional speech is usually " broader" than【C9】______of southern Britain. Northerners are【C10】______to claim that they work harder than Southerners, and are more【C11】______. They are open-hearted and hospitable; foreigners often find that they make friends with them【C12】______Northerners generally have hearty【C13】______: the visitor to Lancashire or Yorkshire, for instance, may look forward to receiving【C14】______helpings at meal times.
In accent and character the people of the Midlands【C15】______a gradual change from the southern to the northern type of Englishman.
In Scotland the sound【C16】______by the letter "R" is generally a strong sound, and "R" is often pronounced in words in which it would be【C17】______in southern English. The Scots are said to be a serious, cautious, thrifty people,【C18】______inventive and somewhat mystical. All the Celtic people of Britain(the Welsh, the Irish, the Scots)are frequently【C19】______as being more "fiery" than the English. They are【C20】______a race that is quite distinct from the English.
【C7】
选项
A、line
B、row
C、border
D、scale
答案
A
解析
根据选项和going from Bristol to London推测可知,要表达的句意为“从布里斯托尔到伦敦一线以南”,显然从布里斯托尔到伦敦是两点构成的“线”。A项line意为“线,直线”符合题意;B项row意为“排”;C项border意为“边境,国界”,在一区域内的语言文化分界线不能用border。D项sere意为“尺度,规模”,不符合题意。
