D.Objective.【答案】32.D33.A34.C35.B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了语言在数字时代的发展。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的“Textspeakisanevolutionoflanguage.It’seventhefocusofafieldoflinguistics(语言学)calledCMC,whichiscommittedtothestudyofinteractionfacilitatedbytechnologylikecomputers,mobilephonesandtablets.(textspeak是一种语言的进化。这甚至是一个名为CMC的语言学领域的研究重点，该领域致力于研究电脑、手机和平板电脑等技术促进的互动。)”可知，textspeak是语言和交流的进化。故选D。【33题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段的“Ofcourse,languagedoeschangewhenit’suseddigitally.Textspeakisanevolutionoflanguage.(当然，当语言被数字化使用时，它确实会发生变化。短信语是一种语言的进化。)”和最后一段的“So,farfromruininglanguage,theexampleindicateshowpeoplecannowcommunicatecomplexfeelingsinasimplemanner.Thiskindofchangeisperfectforourmodern,fast-pacedworld.(因此，这个例子不仅没有破坏语言，而且表明人们现在可以用简单的方式交流复杂的情感。这种变化对于我们这个快节奏的现代世界来说是完美的。)”可知，作者在文中论证了语言会随着新技术而变化和适应。故选A。【34题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段的“Contrarytotheidea(与这个想法相反)”和“CMCdemonstratesacreativerepurposingofsymbolsfortechnology.Theseswiftandcleverevolutionsillustratetheflexibilityoflanguageanditscapacitytocommunicatemeaningsnotrelatingtowords.(CMC展示了对技术符号的创造性重新利用。这些迅速而巧妙的进化说明了语言的灵活性及其传达与单词无关的意义的能力。)”和第四段“Peoplehavebeencomplainingaboutlanguagebeing“ruined”.(人们一直在抱怨语言被“毁了”。)”可知，划线词所在的句子表示“与这些创新正在恶化语言的想法相反，CMC展示了对技术符号的创造性重新利用。这些迅速而巧妙的进化说明了语言的灵活性及其传达与单词无关的意义的能力”，划线词意为“使恶化”，和C选项“Worsening(恶化)”意思相近。故选C。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段的“Textspeakisanevolutionoflanguage.(短信语是一种语言的进化。)”和最后一段的“So,farfromruininglanguage,theexampleindicateshowpeoplecannowcommunicatecomplexfeelingsinasimplemanner.Thiskindofchangeisperfectforourmodern,fast-pacedworld.(因此，这个例子不仅没有破坏语言，而且表明人们现在可以用简单的方式交流复杂的情感。这种变化对于我们这个快节奏的现代世界来说是完美的。)”可知，作者对“短信语”的态度是赞许的。故选B。第二节(共5小题：每小题2.5分，两分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从知文的选项中选出可以以入空1处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项WalkalongthestreetsofBeijingandlistencarefullytothelittlebabiescallingfortheirmotherswhileoutonaneveningwalkandwhatdoyouhear?mama.____36____.ItalianandFrenchbabieswanttheirmamaandmamanrespectively.AndinEastAfrica,Swahili-speakerssaymamaandArab-speakingchildrenoftencalltheirmothersyemma.____37____.InMalaysia,it’snotunusualformotherstobeaddressedasmak.ThesoundmaisalmostuniversalinEurope,andverycommonevenamongcompletelyunrelatedlanguagesspokeninfarawayplaces.Howdidthiscomeabout?Howdidonesyllable(音节)becomesouniversalinchildren’svocabulariestheworldover?____38____.HungrybabiesonlyhavetoopentheirmouthswideandscreamAAAAAAHtopronouncetheirfirstvowel-A.Later,astheystartplayingaroundwiththeirmouths,alltheyhavetodoistocloseandopentheirlipstomakeanM,theirveryfirstconsonant(辅音).____39____,they’vediscoveredanothersound!Adultshearingbabiesmakingthischarmingstringofmamamasoundsmightthinkthatthebabiesarecallingouttothem.Amotherwouldthennaturallyassumethatshe’stheonebeingaddressedandsowouldrefertoherselfasmama!Anothertheoryisthatbabiesnaturallyproducenasal(鼻的)sounds,likeaverysoftmhmh-mlmhwhilebreastfeeding.Indeedmammameans“breast”inLatin.____40____.A.That’snotallB.ThatistosayC.Youcansay“mom”inanycountryintheworldD.Wehave“mother”butwe’llaccept“mama”asafirstwordE.Andthisalsohappenstobethesourceofboth“mammary”and“mammal”F.Ontheothersideoftheworldyou’llhe
