How does literary style evolve? Surprisingly,(1)_____ lie in words with seemingly little meaning, such as "to" and "that".
By analysing(2)_____ writers use such "content-free" 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(3)_____ of writing style, Rockmore says. While two authors might use the(4)_____ content words to describe a similar event, they will use content-free words to(5)_____ their content words in a different way.
Using the Project Gutenberg digital library, Rockmore’s team analysed 7733 English language works written since 1550,(6)_____ how often and in what(7)_____ content-free words appeared. As you might expect, they found that writers were(8)_____ influenced by their predecessors.
They also found that as the number of literature works grew, the influence of older works (9)_____. Authors in the(10)_____ periods wrote in a very similar way to one another, the researchers found, probably because they all read the same(11)_____ body of literature. But approaching the modern era,(12)_____ more people were writing and more works were(13)_____ from many eras and numerous styles, authors’ styles were still very similar to those of their(14)_____ contemporaries. "It’s as if they find dialects in time," says Alex Bentley. " Content is what makes us(15)______, but content-free words put us in different(16)_____."
(17)_____ writers should be most influenced by their contemporaries(18)_____ the great works of the past is interesting, Rockmore says, because it challenges the(19)_____ of "classic" literature. When it comes to style(20)______, perhaps we aren’t so strongly influenced by the classics after all. [br] (20)
选项
A、at least
B、at large
C、at best
D、at random
答案
A
解析
本句的意思是“谈到写作风格的时候,似乎我们并未受到经典文学的强烈影响。”此处将经典文学的影响范围缩小至写作风格,at least“至少”符合语境。at large“普遍,详尽”:at best“至多”:at random“任意地”。
