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 universal grammar for all human languages—essentially,【S3】______
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 sense to ask whether linguistic differences【S4】______
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【S7】______
probed deeper into the world’s languages(7,000 or so, only a
fraction of them analyzed), innumerable predictable differences【S8】______
emerged.
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 whether our understanding of even such【S9】______
fundamental domains of experience that space, time and causality【S10】______
could be constructed by language.
【S6】
选项
答案
and—but
解析
连词误用。该句意思是“探究语言普遍性得出了有趣的数据,但是在经过几十年的研究之后,仍然没有一种普遍性能经受得起详细审查。”根据句意可知,该句前后两个分句之间的逻辑关系是转折,故将and改为but。
