One of the most interesting of all studies is the study of words and word origins. Each language is【B1】______of several earlier languages and the words of a language can sometimes be traced【B2】______through two or three different languages to their 【B3】______. Again a word from one language may pass into other languages and【B4】______a new meaning. The word "etiquette", which is 【B5】______ French origin and originally meant a label, 【B6】______ a sign, passed into Spanish and kept its original meaning. So in Spanish the word "etiquette" today is used to【B7】______the small tags which a store【B8】______to a suit, a dress or a bottle. The word "etiquette" in French, 【B9】______, gradually developed a different meaning. It【B10】______became the custom to write directions on small cards, or "etiquette", as to how visitors should dress themselves and【B11】______during an important ceremony at the royal court.【B12】______the word "etiquette" began to indicate a system of correct manners for people to follow. 【B13】______this meaning, the word passed into English.
Consider the word "breakfast". "To fast" is to go for some period of time without【B14】______. Thus in the morning after many hours【B15】______the night without food, one【B16】______one’ s fast.
Consider the everyday English【B17】______"Good-bye". Many many years ago, people would say to each other【B18】______parting "God be with you." As this was【B19】______over and over millions of times, it gradually became【B20】______to "Good-bye".
【B12】
选项
A、Nevertheless
B、Also
C、Yet
D、Thus
答案
D
解析
考查逻辑关系。上句中已经说明了etiquette的词义有了新的变化,因此该词就有了新的表意功能。Thus意为“因此”,符合句意和上下文的逻辑性。Nevertheless“然而,不过”;Also“也,同样”;Yet“但是,然而”,均不符合题意。因此选D.Thus。
