问题     We use language every day. We live in a world of words.
Hardly any moment passes with someone talking, writing or【S1】______
reading. Indeed, language is most essential to mankind. Our life
increasingly depends on fast and successful use of language.【S2】______
Strangely enough, we know more about things around us than that of【S3】______
ourselves. For example, language is species-specific, that is, it is
language that differs human from animals. However, we do not【S4】______
know yet how exactly we inquire language and how it is possible for【S5】______
us to perceive through language; so do we understand precisely the【S6】______
relationships between language and thought, language and logic, or
language and culture; still more, how and when language started.【S7】______
One reason why this inadequate knowledge of language is that we,【S8】______
language users, take too many things for granted. Language comes
to every normal person so naturally that a few of us stop to question【S9】______
what language is, much less do we feel the necessity to study it.
Language is far more complex than most people have probably
imagined and the necessity to study it is much greater than some
people may have assumed. Linguistics is a branch of science which
takes language like its object of investigation.【S10】______ [br] 【S4】

选项

答案 differs—distinguishes

解析 近义词误用。此处为强调句,去掉强调结构it is…that…,句子主干为language differs human from animals,而differ作为不及物动词,后面不能直接跟宾语。根据上下文可知,此处意为“语言将人类与动物区分开来”,故应使用distinguish“区分,辨别”。
