Language is not merely something that is spread out in space,
as it was—a series of reflections in individual minds of one and the【S1】______
same timeless picture. Language moves down time in a current of its
own making. It has a drift. If there were no breaking up for a【S2】______
language into dialects, and if each language continued a firm, self-【S3】______
contained unity, it would still be constantly moving away from any
assignable norm, developing new features unceasingly and gradually
transforming it into a language so different from its starting point as【S4】______
to be in effect a new language. Now dialects arise not because of the
mere fact of individual variation but because two or more groups of
individuals have become sufficiently disconnected to drift apart, or
independently, instead of together. So long as they keep strict【S5】______
together, no amount of individual variation would lead to the
formation of dialects. In a practice, of course, no language can be【S6】______
spread over a vast territory and even over a considerable area without【S7】______
showing dialectic variations, for it is possible to keep a large【S8】______
population from segregating itself into local groups, the language of
each of which tends to drift independently. In cultural conditions【S9】______
such as apparently prevail today, conditions that fight localism at
every turn, the tendency to dialectic cleavage is being constantly
counteracted and in part "corrected" by the factors already referred
to. Yet even in so young a country like America the dialectic【S10】______
differences are not inconsiderable. [br] 【S5】
选项
答案
strict—strictly
解析
词性混用。该句中被修饰的together是副词,因此应该用副词strictly来修饰。本句大意是“只要它们完全在一起,就不会有个体的变化能够导致方言的形成。”
