问题 The example for dog’s barking "bowwow" explains the theory ______ in which words are uttered like the sounds they describe.
选项 A、anonymous
B、personification
C、onomatopoeia
D、symbolic
答案C
解析 本题考查语言学知识。索绪尔提出的语言特征之一就是具有arbitrariness(任意性)，任意性认为语素的音和义之间具有任意性。生活中有些拟声词(onomatopoeia)的发音像它们所描写的声音的词，本题题干中的例子也是这种拟声现象。拟声和任意性是可以同时起作用的。拟声词也叫摹声词，顾名思义，指那些模仿自然声音的词。[C]为答案。
