问题       It is commonly supposed that when a man seeks literary power he goes to his room and prepares an article for the press. But this is to begin literary culture【C1】______ the wrong end. We speak a hundred times for every【C2】______ we write. The busiest writer produces 【C3】______ more than a volume a year, not so much as his talk would【C4】______ in a week.【C5】______ through speech it is usually decided whether a man is to have【C6】______ of his language or not. If he is slovenly in his ninety-nine cases of talking, he can【C7】______ pull himself【C8】______ to strength and exactitude (精确) in the hundredth ease of writing. A person is made in one piece, and the same being runs through a 【C9】______ of performances. Whether words are uttered on paper or to the air, the effect【C10】______ the utterer is the same. Vigor or feebleness is【C11】______ accordingly as energy or slackness has been in command. I know that certain【C12】______ to a new field are often necessary. A good speaker may find awkwardness in himself, when he【C13】______ write; a good writer, when he speaks. And certainly eases occur【C14】______ a man exhibits【C15】______  strength in one of the two, speaking or writing, and not in the other. But such eases are rare.【C16】______ , language once【C17】______ our control can be employed for oral or for written【C18】______ And【C19】______ the opportunities for oral practice enormously outbalance those for written, it is the oral which are chiefly significant in the【C20】______ of literary power.
【C18】
选项 A、goals
B、purpose
C、motives
D、intentions
答案B
解析 考查近义词辨析。purpose意为“目的”，通常强调实现目标的决心或是为了达到想要得到的结果而做出的特别努力；goal也表示“目的，目标”，通常指需要艰苦奋斗才能达到的长期或最终的目标；motive意为“动机”，表示促使某人去做某事的原因； intention意为“意图，企图”，指的是某人心中的计划或是想法。此外，for．．．purpose or for the purpose of为习惯搭配，意为“为了……，因……的目的”。所以这里的正确选项为purpose。
