Who hasn’t wanted to master not just two languages but 10? Take Giuseppe Mezzofanti, a 19th-century priest who was said to be【C1】________ in as many as 50 languages. Native speakers came from all over the world to test his【C2】________. and many left astonished.
In Babel No More, Michael Erard investigates the legend of Mezzofanti and other linguistic geniuses. Early on Erard asks what it means to really know a language. Claire Kramsch tells him the question should not be "How many languages do you know?" but rather "In how many languages do you live?" Understanding the【C3】________ cultural difference of a language requires extensive and【C4】________ contact with its speakers, and for that reason Kramsch doubts that anyone could ever live in more than four or five languages.
Fair enough,【C5】________ what about the astonishing feats of memory and calculation that people display when they pick up a new language, or eight? Erard points out that, for no good reason, this question has been【C6】________ by science. After all, we study extraordinary talents in mathematics and music; why not linguistic geniuses?
Erard【C7】________ down Mezzofanti’s papers, speaks to many language experts and even learns that some bilingual people experience mental illness in one【C8】________ but not another. Most interestingly, he【C9】________ a group of modern linguistic geniuses. Memory, motivation and practice are all important, they say, but so is a practical strategy. Those who claimed to speak 11 languages did not much care about sounding like a native. Unlike Mezzofanti, their goal was not to【C10】________ but to do—see the world, read the local paper and not get lost. [br] 【C7】
选项
答案
M
解析
此处应填动词第三人称单数,与下文的speaks和learns并列,且与papers构成动宾关系。下文与此处并列的“与许多语言专家交谈”“甚至获悉一些双语者……”都是指Erard做研究,故此处也应表示Erard做研究,tracks追踪代入,指Erard“追查”研究Mezzofanti的论文,是做研究的一种方式,符合语境。
