One of the most interesting of all studies is the study of words and word origins. Each language is【C1】________ of several earlier languages and the words of a language can sometimes be traced back through two or three different languages to their【C2】________. Again a word from one language may pass into other languages and develop a new meaning.
The word "etiquette," which is of French origin and originally meant a label, or a sign, passed into Spanish and kept its original meaning. So in Spanish the word "etiquette" today is used to【C3】________ the small tags which a store【C4】________ to a suit, a dress or a bottle. The word "etiquette" in French, however, gradually developed a different meaning. It later became the custom to write【C5】________ on small cards, or "etiquette", as to how visitors should dress themselves and act during an important ceremony at the royal court. Thus the word "etiquette" began to indicate a system of correct【C6】________ for people to follow. With this meaning, the word passed into English.
Consider the word "breakfast". "To fast" is to go for some period of time without eating. Thus in the morning after many hours during the night without food, one【C7】________ one’s fast.
Consider the everyday English【C8】________"Good-bye". Many many years ago, people would say to each other on【C9】________ "God be with you." As this was repeated over and over millions of times, it gradually became【C10】________ to "Good-bye". [br] 【C6】
选项
答案
G
解析
空格前有介词of和形容词correct,因此空格处应填入名词。上文说“etiquette是关于人们应有的穿着和举止”。故可知,etiquette是表示“人们应遵守的一套正确的礼仪和行为规范”,词库中的manners“礼仪”代入后意为“单词etiquette开始表示一套人们需要遵守的正确的礼仪系统”,符合上下文语义逻辑。
