The desire to use language as a sign of national identity is a
very natural one, and in result language has played a prominent 【M1】______
part in national moves. Men have often felt the need to cultivate a 【M2】______
given language to show that they are distinctive from another race 【M3】______
whose hegemony they resent. At the time the United States split 【M4】______
off from Britain, for example, there were proposals that
independence should be linguistically accepted by the use of a 【M5】______
different language from those of Britain. There was even one 【M6】______
proposal that Americans should adopt Hebrew. Others favoured
the adoption of Greek, though, as one man put it, things would
certainly be simpler for Americans if they stuck on to English and 【M7】______
made the British learn Greek. At the end, as everyone knows, the 【M8】______
two countries adopted the practical and satisfactory solution of
carrying with the same language as before. 【M9】______
Since nearly two hundred years now, they have shown the 【M10】______
world that political independence and national identity can be
complete without sacrificing the enormous mutual advantages of a
common language.
【M3】
选项
答案
distinctive—distinct
解析
形近词错误。形容词distinctive的意思是“有特色的”,而distinct常与from连用,意思是“区别于,不同于”,结合上下文,这里显然要用distinct,意思是“他们要用一种语言来显示他们与其他民族不同”。试看distinct from的例句:Engineeringand technology are disciplines distinct fromone another and science。
