What is similar about West Africa and South America, from the linguist’s point of view?
选项
A、The English language is widely used by academics and teachers.
B、The documentary linguists who work there were trained by Australians.
C、Local languages are disappearing rapidly in both places.
D、There are now only a few undocumented languages there.
答案
C
解析
In the third paragraph the writer says ’... language-loss hotspots such as West Africa and South America’.(The metaphor ’hotspot’ can mean somewhere where there is a lot of activity, so a ’language-loss hotspot’ is a place experiencing severe problems with language loss.) Distraction A: The text refers to the training of linguists in England as well as these places; it doesn’t mention the language used by linguists in these countries; B: Austin, who heads the programme, is Australian, but ’programme’ implies other trainers as well, whose nationality is not mentioned. Therefore we don’t know that the linguists were all trained by Australians; D: The fact that ’many documentary linguists’ have been trained there does not tell us how many undocumented languages there are.
