He wondered: Might deaf people actually have a(n)【C8】________ language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth?

解析
词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入形容词,修饰名词language。在可选的形容词范围中仅genuine,real,dismissed可修饰language。real表示“真实的,不是想象的或者是编造的”;genuine表示“名副其实的;非伪造的;非人工的”;dismissed表示“被抛弃的”。根据本文主题“手语是先天使然还是后天习得”,可见此处是指“天然具有的,非人为习得的”。故选genuine。
