A language is a signaling system which operates with symbolic vocal sounds, and which is used by a group of people for the purpose of communication.
Let’s look at this【C1】________ in more detail because it is language, more than anything else, that【C2】________ man from the rest of the animal world.
Other animals, it is true, communicate with one another by means of cries: for example, many birds utter【C3】________ calls at the approach of danger; monkeys utter【C4】________cries, such as expressions of anger, fear and pleasure. But these various means of communication differ in important ways from human language. For instance, animals’ cries do not【C5】________ thoughts and feelings clearly. This means, basically, that they lack structure. They lack the kind of structure that enables us to divide a human utterance into【C6】________.
We can change an utterance by【C7】________ one word in it with another a good illustration of this is a soldier who can say, e.g., "tanks approaching from the north", and who can change one word and say "aircraft approaching from the north" or "tanks approaching from the west"; but a bird has a【C8】________ alarm cry, which means "danger! "
This is why the number of signals that an animal can make is very limited: the great tit is a case in point; it has about twenty different calls, whereas in human language the number of possible utterances is【C9】________. It also explains why animal cries are very【C10】________ in meaning. [br] 【C8】
选项
答案
J
解析
由空格前的a以及空格后的alarm cry,可知此处应填入形容词。上文提到人类可以通过替换单词,形成多个表达。本句的转折词but提示此处应表达“鸟类的警示叫声缺乏变化,类型单一”之意。此外再结合空格前的a以及空格后单数形式的cry,可知single“单一的”符合要求,故选J。
