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】______ .

This latter situation ig not unique 【39】______ English: it is also true in other countries where processes of standardization are 【40】______ .

选项
A、abandoned
B、changed
C、standardized
D、reformed
答案
C
解析
此题属于语意搭配题。standardize表示“标准化”,根据上下文意思可知:那些使用很久的方言(有特点的地方性语言)失去了活力,并面临着被标准化的压力,故选项C standardized正确。选项A abandoned表示“被遗弃,放弃”,例如:The village had already been abandoned.又如:abandon one’s attempt to do(放弃);选项B changed(改变);选项D reformed表示“变革”,有变化之意,但用在此处不够准确。
