2010年专八真题改错部分So far as we can tell, all human languages are equallycomplete and perfect as instruments of communication: that is,every language appears to be well equipped as any other to say 1________________ the things their speakers want to say. 2________________ There may or may not be appropriate to talk about primitive 3________________ peoples or cultures, but that is another matter. Certainly, not allgroups of people are equally competent in nuclear physics orpsychology or the cultivation of rice . Whereas this is not the 4_____________fault of their language. The Eskimos , it is said, can speak aboutsnow with further more precision and subtlety than we can in 5______________ English, but this is not because the Eskimo language (one of thosesometimes miscalled 'primitive') is inherently more precise andsubtle than English. This example does not come to light a defect 6______________in English, a show of unexpected 'primitiveness'. The position issimply and obviously that the Eskimos and the English live in similar 7____________ environments. The English language will be just as rich in terms 8____________for different kinds of snow, presumably, if the environments in whichEnglishwas habitually used made such distinction as important. 9_____________ Similarly, we have no reason to doubt that the Eskimo languagecould be as precise and subtle on the subject of motor manufactureor cricket if these topics formed the part of the Eskimos' life. 10____________1 be后插入as; as…as引导的比较级2 their改为its; its代替every language3 There改为It; It此处作为形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式4 Whereas改为But ；语境需要表示转折的连词，whereas 表示对比5 further 改为much further不能修饰比较级6 come改为bring; (sth)come to light , bring sth to lightbring to light the defect of English =bring the defect of english to light 揭示英语的缺陷7 similar改为different; 根据语境应该用different8 will改为would; 虚拟语气9 as important去掉as;10 the part去掉the或者改the为a be/become/form (a) part of 是固定短语09专八改错原题The previous section has shown how quickly a rhyme passesfrom one school child to the next and illustrates the further difference (1)___________ between school lore and nursery lore.
