How does literary style evolve? Surprisingly,【C1】________ lie in words with seemingly little meaning, such as "to" and "that".
By analysing how writers use such "【C2】________ " words, Daniel Rockmore and colleagues at Dartmouth College in Hanover were able to conduct the first, large-scale style analysis of literature.
Content-free words are【C3】________ of writing style, Rockmore says. While two authors might use the【C4】________ content words to describe a similar event, they will use content-free words to link their content words in a different way.
Using the Project Gutenberg digital library, Rockmore’s team analysed 7,733 English language works written since 1550,【C5】________ how often and in what context content-free words appeared.
As you might expect, they found that writers were【C6】________ influenced by their predecessors.
They also found that as the number of literature works grew, the influence of older works shrank. Authors in the【C7】________ periods wrote in a very similar way to one another, the researchers found, probably because they all read the same small body of literature. But approaching the modern era, when more people were writing and more works were available from many eras and numerous styles, authors’ styles were still very similar to those of their【C8】________ contemporaries.
"It’s as if they find dialects in time," says Alex Bentley. "Content is what makes us unique, but content-free words put us in different groups."
That writers should be most influenced by their contemporaries rather than the great works of the past is interesting, Rockmore says, because it challenges the【C9】________ of "classic" literature.
When it comes to style【C10】________. perhaps we aren’t so strongly influenced by the classics after all. [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
F
解析
本句的主句结构完整,而空格后却接了how often and m what…从句,因此推断空格处填入现在分词或介词。要研究虚词与写作风格的关系当然是需要“追踪”虚词的使用频率以及使用语境的,因此选择tracking“追踪”。specifying“详细说明”并不是一种研究方法,可排除。
