四級暑期天天練：完形填空（5）
A language is a signaling system which operates with symbolic vocal sounds , and which is used by a group of people for the purpose of communication.
Lets look at this 61 in more detail because it is language, more than anything else, 62 distinguishes man from the rest of the 63 world.
Other animals, it is true, communicate with one another by 64 of cries: for example, many birds utter 65 calls at the approach of danger; monkeys utter 66 cries, such as expressions of anger, fear and pleasure. 67 these various means of communication differ in important ways 68 human language. For instance, animals cries do not 69 thoughts and feelings clearly. This means, basically, that they lack structure. They lack the kind of structure that 70 us to divide a human utterance into 71.
We can change an utterance by 72 one word in it with 73: a good illustration of this is a soldier who can say, e.g., tanks approaching from the north, 74 who can change one word and say aircraft approaching from the north or tanks approaching from the west but a bird has a single alarm cry, 75 means danger!
This is why the number of 76 that an animal can make is very limited: the great tit is a case 77 point; it has about twenty different calls, 78 in human language the number of possible utterances is 79. It also explains why animal cries are very 80 in meaning.

【答案解析】：
61.B 此題考查普通詞匯。上文給出的明顯是語言的定義，因此，答案選definition。
62.C 此題考查的語法點(diǎn)是定語從句。從空缺前的逗號可以推斷出，這是個非限定性定語從句，四個選項(xiàng)中，能作為非限定性定語從句的關(guān)系代詞的只有as，表達(dá)正如語言將人類和其他物質(zhì)區(qū)分開來的一樣。
63.C 此題考查上下文理解。語言將人和物質(zhì)世界的其他物質(zhì)區(qū)分開來。
64.B 此處考查固定搭配，by means of表示通過方式或途徑。因此，選B。
65.C 此處考查詞匯和上下文理解，在危險(xiǎn)來臨之際，鳥兒們發(fā)出的應(yīng)該是警告聲。故選warning。
66.C 從后文可得知，猴子能通過聲音表達(dá)憤怒、恐懼和高興。由此推斷可知，猴子發(fā)出的叫聲應(yīng)該是不同的。故選C。
67.A 此處考查介詞及上下文理解，作者旨在拿動物發(fā)出的聲音和人類的語言進(jìn)行比較。前文敘述動物也能發(fā)出不同的聲音，這里說的是動物的交流方式與人類語言在幾個重大的方面是不同，前后文為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。故選but。
68.C 此處考查固定搭配：differ from。
69.D infer表示推斷，explain指解釋，interpret表示解釋、說明。這里選express最符合文意。
70.B 見71題。
71.C 這兩題放在一起來分析。原文意思應(yīng)是：人類擁有能把話語細(xì)分成單詞的某種結(jié)構(gòu)，而動物卻沒有。70題的encourage，enforce，ensure都不符合題意。而71題，比話語更小的單位應(yīng)該是words。故此題選C。
72.A 此題考查上下文理解。下文舉例說明的部分提到將一句話的某個詞換成另外的詞，由此推斷可知，此處選擇replace。
73.C 表達(dá)用另一個詞代替，用another。
74.B 此題考查上下文理解，會說一句話和能夠把這句話里的某個單詞用別的詞替換，這之間表達(dá)的應(yīng)是一種并列關(guān)系。故選B。
75.C 此題考查非限定性定語從句，必須用which。
76.C 動物發(fā)出的聲音不能形容為標(biāo)記、記號或是手勢，因此，只有signal信號才是正確選擇。
77.A 此處考查固定搭配。in point指適用的，相關(guān)的
78.A 作者將山雀能發(fā)出20種叫聲與人類語言能發(fā)出
