The question of whether languages shape the way we think
go back centuries; Charlemagne proclaimed that " to have a second【S1】________
language is to have a second soul". But the idea went out of favor to【S2】________
scientists when Noam Chomsky’s theories of language gained popularity
in the 1960s and 1970s. Dr. Chomsky proposed that there was a【S3】________
universal grammar for all human languages—essentially, that languages
don’t really differ from one another in significant ways. And because
languages didn’t differ from one another, the theory went, it made none【S4】________
sense to ask whether linguistic differences led to differences in thinking.
The search for the linguistic universals yielded interesting【S5】________
data on languages, and after decades of work, not a single【S6】________
proposing universal has withstood scrutiny. Instead, as linguists probed【S7】________
deeper into the world’s languages (7,000 or so, only a fraction of them
analyzed), innumerable predictable differences emerged.【S8】________
Of course, just because people talk differently doesn’t necessarily
mean they think differently. In the past decade, cognitive scientists have
begun to measure not just how people talk, also how they think, asking【S9】________
whether our understanding of even such fundamental domains of
experience that space, time and causality could be constructed by【S10】________
language.
【S8】
选项
答案
predictable—unpredictable
解析
语义错误。该句意为“相反,随着语言学家对世界语言的更深入研究,很多不可预测的差异出现了。”根据句意可知,这些差异一定是不可预测的,故将predictable改为unpredictable。
