问题 Many new words have been added to the English language in the past forty years; and since Shakespeare’s time’ the number of words in the language has increased more than five times, from about 140,000 to______between 700,000 and 800,000.
选项 A、somehow
B、somewhere
C、whereas
D、somewhat
答案 B
解析 B选项：somewhere意为“大约，在某处”，如：He was a thinnish fellow，somewhere in his forties．(他瘦瘦的，大约四十多岁。)句意：在过去的40年，英语语言增添了很多新词。自莎士比亚时代以来，英语单词的数量增加了5倍以上，从大约14万个增加到约70万个和80万个之间。故选B。其他三项：somehow以某种方式，用某种方法；whereas但是，而；somewhat稍微，达到某种程度。
