问题 The purpose of the first sentence in Paragraph One is ______ .
Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?
选项 A、Greek and Roman Mythology in Language.
B、Mythological Origins of English Words.
C、Historical Changes in Word Meanings.
D、Mythology and Common Words.
答案B
解析 主旨大意题。开篇由一个引证引出源自神话的词源这一主旨，之后以tantalize为例进行详细说明，第二段对siren这个源自神话的词也进行了详细分析。第三段及第四段简要列举了源自神话的一些英语词汇，末得出结论：神话传奇似乎在英语中继续存续下去。可见，本文主旨是英文单词的神话起源，故[B]最贴切，为正确答案。[A]范围过大。这里没有分析词义的变化，[C]不符合文意。文中提到了common words，但是不限于普通词汇，[D]不全面。
