Who hasn’t wanted to master not just two languages but 10? Take Giuseppe Mezzofanti, a 19th-century priest who was said to be【C1】______in as many as 50 languages. Native speakers came from all over the world to test his【C2】______. and many left astonished.
In Babel No More, Michael Erard investigates the legend of Mezzofanti and【C3】______linguistic geniuses. 【C4】______on Erard asks what it means to really know a language. Claire Kram-sch tells him the question【C5】______ not be "How many languages do you know?" but rather "In how many languages do you live?" Understanding the【C6】______cultural difference of a language requires extensive and【C7】______contact with its speakers, and for that reason Kramsch【C8】______that anyone could ever live in more than four or five languages.
Fair enough, 【C9】______what about the astonishing feats of memory and calculation that people display when they【C10】______a new language, or eight? Erard points out that, for no good reason, this question has been【C11】______by science. After all, we study extraordinary【C12】______in mathematics and music; why not linguistic geniuses?
Erard【C13】______down Mezzofanti’s papers, speaks to many language experts and even learns that some bilingual people experience mental illness in one【C14】______but not another. Most interestingly, he【C15】______a group of modern linguistic geniuses. Memory, 【C16】______and practice are all important, they say, but so is a practical strategy. 【C17】______who claimed to speak 11 languages did not much care about 【C18】______like a native. Unlike Mezzofanti, their goal was not to【C19】______but to do—see the world, read the local paper and not get【C20】______ .
【C15】
选项
A、surveys
B、leads
C、tests
D、recruits
答案
A
解析
上文提到没有对语言天才进行研究,因此,此处应该表达与研究(study)相关的含义。下文是语言天才的回答(they say),故此处填入A项surveys“调查”与之呼应。
