(2025·湖南长沙毕业班摸底测试)In many languages,the word for “mother/mom” takes an msound.Is there any reason for such nearuniversality?
Linguists(语言学家) generally argue for “the arbitrariness of the sign”:no connection exists between the word dog and the furry quadruped.A rare exception is onomatopoeia,where words representing the bark of a dog (bowwow) and the buzz made by a bee are more or less similar to the sound.Yet most things are not subject to naming this way.
What about mama?It does not sound like a mother,but the fact is that some sounds are more widespread than others around the world.There are many dozens of observed consonants which are rare and hard for nonnatives to learn.
In contrast,a few—such as b,m,p,t,d and k—show up far more frequently,in nearly every spoken language in the world.That is almost certainly because they are easy to make.A baby vocalising will,at first,make a vowellike sound,usually something like “ah”,which requires little in the way of control over the mouth.If they briefly close their mouth and continue vocalising,air will come out of their nose,thus making the msound that is used in “mother” around the world.
Though the “mamas” bear the most obvious similarity,the “papas” have striking commonalities,too.Babies can easily stop their breath when they close their lips (rather than going on breathing through the nose).This produces a b or a psound.It is surely for this reason that so many names for “father” use these consonants:papa in English,abb in Arabic and baba in Putonghua.T and dsounds are similarly basic,involving a simple tap of the tongue against the teeth:hence daddy,tatay (Tagalog) or tayta (Quechua).
Father and mother are,therefore,an oddity.F is not especially easy to utter(发音); thsounds are even harder.English,Greek and Spanish are unusual in having them.Even Anglophone(讲英语的) children may struggle with thsounds when they are five,or older still in many cases.
Anyway,it is hard to find linguistic universals amid the world's dazzling variety.
4.What does the underlined word “quadruped” in Paragraph 2 most probably refer to?
A.Pronunciation. B.Sound.
C.Bee. D.Animal.
5.“Mamas” and “papas” are used so universally because ________.
A.the sounds of the two words sound alike
B.air will come out of baby's mouth directly
C.the sounds can be easily and naturally uttered
D.babies can continue their breath when closing their lips
6.According to the passage,which of the following words might be the most difficult to utter?
A.Forthcoming. B.Programme.
C.Magnificent. D.Magazine.
7.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Inspiration from babies' smile and talks.
B.Linguists' efforts to the research of sounds.
C.Connection between the words mum and dad.
D.Reasons for similar sounds in unrelated languages.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了在不同的语言中,一些相似的发音存在的原因是什么。
4.D [解析]词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“no connection exists between the word dog and the furry quadruped”以及句中dog和furry可知,画线词应该是指和狗一样的长毛的动物。
5.C [解析]推理判断题。根据第四段中的“ a few—such as b,m,p,t,d and k—show up far more frequently,in nearly every spoken language in the world.That is almost certainly because they are easy to make.”可知,Mamas和Papas的使用如此普遍是因为它们的发音很容易、很自然就能发出来。
6.A [解析]推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“F is not especially easy to utter;thsounds are even harder.”可知,选项A的单词含有“F”和“th”,所以最难清晰地发音。
7.D [解析]主旨大意题。根据第一段“In many languages,the word for ‘mother/mom’ takes an msound.Is there any reason for such nearuniversality?”并结合全文可知,本文主要讨论了许多相似的发音普遍存在于不同的语言中的原因。
