Sign has become a scientific hot【C1】______. Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that signed languages are unique—a speech of the hand. They offer a new way to【C2】______how the brain generates and understands language, and【C3】______new light on an old scientific【C4】______: whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born with, or it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has【C5】______in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C., the world’s only liberal arts university for deaf people.
When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school【C6】______ him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something【C7】______: among themselves, students signed differently from his classroom teacher. Stokoe had been taught a sort of gesture code, each movement of the hands representing a word in English. But Stokoe believed the "hand talk" his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually have a(n)【C8】______ language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955, when even deaf people【C9】______their signing as "substandard" . Stokoe’s idea was academic heresy (异端邪说). It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books on ASL—is explaining how he started a【C10】______. For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese.
A. controversy B. dig C. dismissed D. genuine

选项
答案
D
解析
genuine,词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入形容词,修饰名词language。在可选的形容词范围中仅genuine,real,dismissed可修饰language。real表示“真实的,不是想象的或者是编造的”;genuine表示“名副其实的;非伪造的;非人工的”;dismissed表示“被抛弃的”。根据本文主题“手语是先天使然还是后天习得”,可见此处是指“天然具有的,非人为习得的”。故选genuine。
