问题    In every cultivated language there are two great classes of words which, taken together,  comprises the whole vocabulary. First, there arc those words【C1】______which we become acquainted in daily conversation, which we【C2】______, that is to say, from the【C3】______of our own family and from our familiar associates, and【C4】______we should know and use【C5】______we could not read or write. They【C6】______the common things of life, and are the stock in trade of all who【C7】______the language. Such words may be called "popular", since they belong to the people【C8】______and are not exclusive【C9】______of a limited class.
   On the other hand, our language【C10】______a multitude of words which are comparatively【C11】______used in ordinary conversation. Their meanings are known to every educated person, but there is little【C12】______to use them at home or in the market-place. Our first acquaintance with these words【C13】______not from our mother’s【C14】______or from the talk of our school-mates,【C15】______from books that we read, lectures that we【C16】______, or the more【C17】______conversation of highly educated speakers who are discussing some particular【C18】______in a style appropriately elevated above the habitual【C19】______everyday life. Such words【C20】______"learned", and the distinction between them and the "popular" words is of great importance to a right understanding of linguistic process.
【C12】

选项 A、prospect
B、way
C、reason
D、necessity

答案D

解析 本题考查名词的词义辨析。句意:“每一个有文化的人都懂得这些词语的意思,但在家中或在市场上却几乎毫无必要使用这些词语。” prospect“前景”;way“方式”;necessity“必要性”;reason“理由”。因此,只有necessity符合题意。
