How men first learned to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a【C1】______. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain【C2】______to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed【C3】______certain signs, called letters, which could be【C4】______to represent those sounds, and which could be handed【C5】______. Those sounds, whether spoken,【C6】______written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their【C7】______— the things they bring up before our minds. Words become【C8】______with meaning for us by experience; and the【C9】______we live, the more certain words【C10】______to us the happy and sad【C11】______of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us【C12】______.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal【C13】______to our minds and emotions. This【C14】______and telling use of words is what we call【C15】______style.【C16】______all, the real poet is a master of words. He can【C17】______his meaning in words which sing like music, and【C18】______by their position and association can【C19】______men to tears. We should,【C20】______. learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech or writing silly and vulgar.
【C14】
选项
A、charming
B、academic
C、conventional
D、common
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。上句提到作家用于表达想法的语言对我们有很强的吸引力,本句是对上句的进一步解释说明,由此可知,本空所填词应为上句中appeal的近义复现,故答案为[A]charming“吸引人的”。[B]academic“学术的,理论的”;[C]conventional“传统的,习惯的”;[D]common“普通的,一般的”。
