People thinking about the origin of language for the first time usually arrive at the conclusion that it developed gradually as a system of grunts, hisses and cries and【C1】______a very simple affair in the beginning.【C2】______, when we observe the language behaviour of【C3】______we regard as primitive cultures, we find it【C4】______complicated. It was believed that an Eskimo must have at the tip of his tongue a vocabulary of more than 10,000 words【C5】______to get along reasonably well, much larger than the active vocabulary of an average businessman who speaks English.【C6】______, these Eskimo words are far more highly inflected(词尾变化的)than【C7】______of any of the well-known European languages, for a【C8】______noun can be spoken or written in【C9】______hundred different forms, each【C10】______a precise meaning different from that of any other. The forms of the verbs are even more【C11】______The Eskimo language is, therefore, one of the most difficult in the world to learn,【C12】______the result that almost no traders or explorers have【C13】______tried to learn it. Consequently, there has grown up, in communication between Eskimos and whites, a jargon【C14】______to the pidgin English used in Old China, with a vocabulary of from 300 to 600 uninflected words.
