Sign has become a scientific hot【C1】______. Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that signed languages are unique—a speech of the hand. They offer a new way to【C2】______how the brain generates and understands language, and【C3】______new light on an old scientific【C4】______: whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born with, or it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has【C5】______in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C., the world’s only liberal arts university for deaf people.

He wondered: Might deaf people actually have a(n)【C8】______ language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955, when even deaf people【C9】______their signing as "substandard" . Stokoe’s idea was academic heresy (异端邪说). It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books on ASL—is explaining how he started a【C10】______. For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese.
