选项
答案F
解析 The opposite of’practical’ in this context is ’theoretical’, and the text mentions the ’emphasis on theory’. There are two options which mention theory(B)or theoretical linguistics(F)[prevalence = widespread influence / popularity / dominance]. The eighth paragraph says ’Plenty of students continue to be drawn to the intellectual thrill of linguistics field work’. Distraction A: Field work is not ’in danger of disappearing’ even if students’ enthusiasm is gradually worn down; B: cannot be the correct answer because ’the linguistics profession’s emphasis on theory gradually wears down the enthusiasm of linguists who work in communities’; G: It is not realising ’what is involved’[harsh and even hazardous places]that ’wears down the enthusiasm’, it is the ’emphasis on theory’; C, D, E: These endings fit grammatically, but do not make sense.
