Language is a marvelous thing. Every language 【S1】______ of a limited number of sounds, a limited number of ways in which these sounds can be 【S2】______ to form words, and a limited number of rules for combining words into sentences. For example, English has about 45 sound patterns and about 30 patterns for combining these sounds into sentences. Yet from these limited quantities of sounds and limited number of 【S3】______ and patterns for combining the sounds, a speaker of English can produce an 【S4】______ number of sentences that will be understood by other speakers of English.

Both cultures can use their languages to gossip (闲谈), to lie, to tell jokes, to tell stories, and to discuss life.

The rest of us, however, learn the basics of our first language by the time we are five years old, a remarkable 【S10】______ .
