问题     Quite often, educators tell families of children who are learning English as a second language to speak only English, and not their native language, at home. Although these educators may have good【C1】______, their advice to families is misguided, and it【C2】______from misunderstandings about the process of language acquisition. Educators may fear that children hearing two languages will become【C3】______confused and thus their language development will be【C4】________; this concern is not documented in the literature. Children arc capable of learning more than one language, whether【C5】______or sequentially(依次地). In fact, most children outside of the United States are expected to become bilingual or even, in many cases, multilingual. Globally, knowing more than one language is viewed as an【C6】______and even a necessity in many areas.
    It is also of concern that the misguided advice that students should speak only English is given primarily to poor families with limited educational opportunities, not to wealthier families who have many educational advantages. Since children from poor families often are【C7】______as at-risk for academic failure, teachers believe that advising families to speak English only is appropriate. Teachers consider learning two languages to be too【C8】______for children from poor families, believing that the children are already burdened by their home situations.
    If families do not know English or have limited English skills themselves, how can they communicate in English? Advising non-English-speaking families to speak only English is【C9】______to telling them not to communicate with or interact with their children. Moreover, the【C10】______message is that the family’s native language is not important or valued.

E)identified J)prevalent O)visualizing
【C5】
选项
答案K
解析 由空格后出现的or可推知空格处应填入副词，与sequentially相呼应。本句前半部分提到了“孩子们有能力学习一种以上的语言”。而空格后的“依次地”一词点明空格中的单词也是对孩子们学习语言顺序的一种描述，与“依次”一词相对的意思为simultaneously“同时地”，故为答案。备选项中，successively“接连着，继续地”也可以表示动作行为的顺序，但该词与sequentially意思相似，不能形成选择关系。故排除。
