It is of course true that in a certain sense the individual is
predestined to talk, but that is due entirely to the circumstance, that is,
he is born not merely in nature, but in the lap of a society that is
certain, reasonably certain, to lead him to their traditions. Eliminate【S1】________
society and it is every reason to believe that he will learn to walk, and, 【S2】________
indeed, he will survive at all. But it is just as certain as that he will【S3】________
never learn to talk, that is, to communicate ideas according to the
tradition system of a particular society. Or, again, remove the newborn【S4】________
individual from the social environment into which he has come and
transplant him to an utterly alien one. He will develop the art of walking
in his new environment very much as he will have developed it in the【S5】________
old. But his speech will completely at variance with the speech of his【S6】________
native environment. Walking, then, is a general human activity that
varies only within circumscribed limits as we pass from individual to
individual. Its variability is voluntary and purposeless. Speech is a【S7】________
human activity that varies without assignable limit as we pass from social
group to social group, because it is a pure historical heritage of the【S8】________
group, the product of long-continued social usage. It varies as all
creative effort varies--not as consciously, perhaps, but none the less as
truly as do the religions, the beliefs, the customs, and the arts of
different people. Walking is an organic, an instinctive function(not, of【S9】________
course, itself all instinct);speech is a non-instinctive, acquiring, 【S10】________
“cultural” function. [br] 【S9】
选项
答案
people—peoples
解析
词义混淆。people作为集合名词,意思是“人类,人们”,但是它还可以作可数名词的单数,意思是“民族,种族”。根据上下文可知,此处考查“民族,种族”之意,而且被different所修饰,故应使用其复数形式peoples。
