There are several possible relationships between language and society. One is what social
structure may either influence or determine linguistic struc-【M1】______ ture and/or behavior. A certain evidence may be adduced to support this【M2】______ view: the age-grading phenomenon whereby young children speak differently from elder children and, in turn, children speak differently from mature【M3】______ adults: studies which show that the varieties of language that speakers use reflect such matters like their regional, social, or ethnic origin: and other【M4】______ studies which show that particular ways of speaking, choices of words, and even rules for conversing are in fact highly determined by certain social requirements. A second possible relationship is directly opposing to the first: linguistic【M5】______ structure and/or behavior. may either influence or determine social structure. Many of these who argue that languages rather than speakers of these【M6】______ languages can be "sexist". A third possible relationship is that the influence is bi-directional: language and society may influence each. A fourth possibility【M7】______ is to assume that there is no relationship at all between linguistic structure and social structure and that every is independent of the other. A variant of this【M8】______ possibility would be to say that, although there might be some such relationship, present attempts to characterize it is essentially premature, given what【M9】______ we know about both language and society. Actually, this variant view appears to be the one that Chomsky himself holds: he prefers to develop an asocial linguistics such as a preliminary to any other kind of linguistics.【M10】______

回答下列各题 Language is, and should be, a living thing, constantly enrichedwith new words
and forms of expression. But there is a vital distinctionbetween good developments, which add to the language, enabling us to say thingswe could not say before, and bad developments, which subtract from the languageby rendering it less precise. A vivacious, colorful use of words is not to beconfused with mere slovenliness. The kind of slovenliness in which someprofessionals deliberately indulge is perhaps akin to the cult(迷信)of the unfinished work, whichhas eroded most of the arts in our time. And the true answer to it is the samethat art is enhanced, not hindered, by discipline. You cannot carvesatisfactorily in butter. The corruption of written English has been accompanied by an evensharper decline in the standard of spoken English. We speak very much less wellthan was common among educated Englishmen a generation or two ago. The modern theatre has played a baneful (有害的)part in dimming ourappreciation of language. Instead of the immensely articulate dialogue of, forexample, Shaw (who was also very insistent on good pronunciation), audiencesare now subjected to streams of barely literate trivia, often designed, onlytoo well, to exhibit lack of communication, and larded(夹杂)with the obscenities(下流的话)and grammaticalerrors of the intellectually impoverished. Emily Post once advised her readers:"The theatre is the best possible place to hear correctly-enunciatedspeech. " Alas, no more. One young actress was recently reported to betaking lessons in how to speak badly, so that she should fit in better. But the BBC is the worst traitor. After years of very successfullyhelping to raise the general standard of spoken English, it suddenly went intoreverse. As the head of the Pronunciation Unit coyly(含蓄地)put it, "In the 1960s theBBC opened the field to a much wider range of speakers." To hear a BBCdisc jockey talking to the latest ape-like pop idol is a truly shockingexperience of verbal squalor. And the prospect seems to be of even worse tocome. School teachers are actively encouraged to ignore little Johnnysincoherent grammar, atrocious spelling and haphazard punctuation, becauseworrying about such things might inhibit his creative genius. The writer relates linguistic slovenliness to tendencies inthe arts today in that they both __________.

A.occasionally aim at a certain fluidity

B.appear to shun perfection

C.from time to time show regard for the finishing touch

D.make use of economical short cuts

第11题

At the end of the nineteenth century, a rising interestin Native American customs and an i

At the end of the nineteenth century, a rising interest

in Native American customs and an increasing desire to

understand Native American culture prompted ethnolo-

gists to begin recording the life stories of Native Amer-

(5) ican. Ethnologists had a distinct reason for wanting to

hear the stories: they were after linguistic or anthropo-

logical data that would supplement their own field

observations, and they believed that the personal

stories, even of a single individual, could increase their

(10) understanding of the cultures that they had been

observing from without. In addition many ethnologists

at the turn of the century believed that Native Amer-

ican manners and customs were rapidly disappearing,

and that it was important to preserve for posterity as

(15) much information as could be adequately recorded

before the cultures disappeared forever.

There were, however, arguments against this method

as a way of acquiring accurate and complete informa-

tion. Franz Boas, for example, described autobiogra-

(20) phies as being “of limited value, and useful chiefly for

the study of the perversion of truth by memory,” while

Paul Radin contended that investigators rarely spent

enough time with the tribes they were observing, and

inevitably derived results too tinged by the investi-

(25) gator’s own emotional tone to be reliable.

Even more importantly, as these life stories moved

from the traditional oral mode to recorded written

form, much was inevitably lost. Editors often decided

what elements were significant to the field research on a

(30) given tribe. Native Americans recognized that the

essence of their lives could not be communicated in

English and that events that they thought significant

were often deemed unimportant by their interviewers.

Indeed, the very act of telling their stories could force

(35) Native American narrators to distort their cultures, as

taboos had to be broken to speak the names of dead

relatives crucial to their family stories.

Despite all of this, autobiography remains a useful

tool for ethnological research: such personal reminis-

(40) cences and impressions, incomplete as they may be, are

likely to throw more light on the working of the mind

and emotions than any amount of speculation from an

ethnologist or ethnological theorist from another

culture.

Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?

A.The historical backgrounds of two currently used research methods are chronicled.

B.The validity of the data collected by using two different research methods is compared.

C.The usefulness of a research method is questioned and then a new method is proposed.

D.The use of a research method is described and the limitations of the results obtained are discussed.

E.A research method is evaluated and the changes necessary for its adaptation to other subject areas are discussed.
