参考答案与解析
1.【答案】B 【解析】此处意为:当人类刚刚开始进化,他们如同新生儿一样不会运 用语言这种工具。 evolved 逐渐发展,进化符合题意。generated 生殖,发展;
born (bear 的过去分词)不能作谓语动词;
originated 起源,不能用 first 修饰。
2.【答案】A 【解析】根据语法分析,答案应用来修饰语言的。valuable 珍贵的;
appropriate 合适的,适当的;
convenient 方便的,便利的;
favorite 最喜欢的。语 言并不是人类选择的结果, 而是人类在进化过程中慢慢发展起来的, 对人类来说, 应当是珍贵的。
3.【答案】A 【解析】此处意思是:语言的发展增加了人类未来的成就和文化进步的 可能性。attainments 成就;
feasibility 可行性;
entertainments 娱乐;
evolution 进化。
4.【答案】D 【解析】此处意为:许多语言学家认为进化使人们产生和具备了语言的 能力。固定短语 be responsible for 对??负责,是??的原由。其它选项不与 for 搭配。
5.【答案】C 【解析】根据语法分析,空格后应是一个宾语从句,而 A, B,D 三项后都不能接从句做直接宾语。confirm(确认)+名词;
inform(通知)sb.of sth.;
convince(使某人确信) sb.of sth.
6. 【答案】 【解析】 D 固定搭配 provide sb.with sth.意为 “向(人)提供(物)”
7.【答案】B 【解析】此处意为:我们高度发达的大脑是我们具备了其它低等动物所 不具备的语言能力。显然,这里是把人和低等动物相比较。因此选 organisms 有 机体,生物体。
8.【答案】A 【解析】此句意思是:人类的语言能力是与生俱来的, 但语言本身也在逐渐发展,所以这种能力应该是潜在的。 potential 潜力;
performance 履行;
preference 偏爱;
passion 激情。
9.【答案】A 【解析】此句句义是:语言本身作为童年时期大脑生长 的一种功能,其发展是缓慢的。as (作为,当作)合乎题意。Like 作为介词的意思 是“像??一样” 。
10.【答案】B 【解析】此句意为:语言的发展有一个关键期,人体的成长是生物变化 的过程。biological 生物的;
ideological 思想上的;
social 社会的;
psychological 心理的。
11.【答案】A 【解析】此处意为:目前人们对“先天论”评论观点不 一,但是支持某些天生能力的证据却是确凿无疑的。reviews 评论;
reference 参考;
reaction 反应;
recommendation 推荐。
12.【答案】C 【解析】从 11 题可看出,作者是倾向于先天论的,为了进一步证明先 天论是有道理的, 作者选择了以学校为例加以说明,因此这里应填一个表示递进 关系的词 Indeed(甚至)。
13.【答案】D 【解析】此处意思是:越来越多的学校发现在什么年级 学外语较容易,根据常识(低年级学外语较容易)以及后文的 Young children often can learn several languages by being 14 to them, while adults?可以选定答案。
14.【答案】B 【解析】此处意为:通过接触多种语言,孩子们可以学会好几种语言。 be exposed to 是固定搭配,接触到。reveal(显露)sth.to sb,不合题意,因本题中 的 them 指 languages。 其余选项不与 to 搭配。 engage in 从事;
involved in 参与。 be
15.【答案】C 【解析】此句意思是:一旦母语的规则被深深印入脑海 中, 成年人就很难再学好另一种语言。 rules 规则, 规律;
regulations 规定;
formations 构成,构造;
constitutions 宪法,章程。
16.【答案】A 【解析】分析上下文的逻辑关系,从句意思是:语言的某些方面肯定是 先天的。主句意思是:语言不会在与人隔绝的状况下自行发展。前后应为转折关 系。
17.【答案】D 【解析】此句意为:与人隔绝的儿童不能掌握好一门语言。isolated 孤立的,与人隔绝的;
distinguished 区别的,杰出的;
different 不同的;
protected 受到保护的。
18.【答案】D 【解析】此句总结前几句,意为:必须通过与他人交往, 语言才能够发展。 interaction 相互作用;

19.【答案】A 【解析】根据分析,本句中的“this”和“even more basic”分别指代上 句的“interaction with other human beings”和“necessary” ,此处所填词对应上文 中的 language development。 也就是说, language acquisition 语言习得。 appreciation 欣赏,感激;
requirement 要求;
alternative 转移,转变,转换。
20. 【答案】 【解析】 C 本句功能是以另一种方式解释前文中的 “imitative, learned behavior.(模仿性的后天行为)” 。In other words 换言之,换句话说;
As a result 结果是;
After all 毕竟;
Above all 首先。
