To the professional linguist, there is no superiority of any language. Therefore, it is well-accepted in the field of linguistics that there exist no higher or lower grades among languages.
People once thought of tile languages of backward groups as undeveloped forms of speech, consisting largely of rough and simple sounds. It is possible that language in general began as a series of simple sounds. But it is a fact established by the study of "backward" languages that no spoken tongue answers that description. Most languages of "backward" groups are extremely complex pieces of tool for the transfer of ideas. They "fall behind" the western languages not in their sound pattern or grammatical structures but only in their vocabularies. The sound pattern or grammatical structures usually are fully adequate for all language needs. The vocabulary reflects the objects and activities known to their speakers.
There are two things to be noted. Firstly, all languages seem to possess ways for vocabulary expansion. Vocabulary expands either by putting together its own words or by borrowing words from other languages. Secondly, the "backward" languages are different from ours. The objects and activities which require distinction are often surprisingly numerous and complicated. [br] Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
选项
A、Language is to be viewed with ranks or grades.
B、Most languages of "backward" groups are complex enough to express ideas.
C、Generally languages are probably developed from simple sounds.
D、All languages seem to possess the system for vocabulary expansion.
答案
A
解析
推理判断题:本题询问关于文章内容,下面哪一种说法不正确。根据第一段最后一句话的后半部分可知,语言不存在高低等级,这也就意味着我们不能以等级的观点看待语言,故正确答案为选项A。根据第二段第四句话可知,大多数“落后”群体的语言是非常复杂的传递思想的工具,故选项B(大多数“落后”群体的语言复杂得足以表达思想)符合文意。根据第二段第二句话可知,一般来说,语言可能是从一系列简单的发音发展而来的,故选顶C(一般而言,语言可能是从简单的发音发展而来的)符合文意。根据第三段第二句话可知。语言词汇扩展有其方法,然后下面一句话讲了词汇扩展的两种方法,故选项D(所有语言似乎都有词汇扩张的体系)也符合文意。
