Language as a System of Symbols

Of all systems of symbols(符号), language is the most highly developed. It has been pointed out that human beings, by agreement, can make anything stand for anything. Human beings have agreed, in the course of centuries of mutual(相互的) dependency, to let the various noises that they can produce with their lungs, throats, tongues, teeth, and lips systematically stand for certain happenings in their nervous systems. We call that system of agreements language.

There is no necessary connection between the symbol and that which it stands for. Just as social positions can be symbolized by feathers worn on the head, by gold on the watch chain, or by a thousand other things according to the culture we live in, so the fact of being hungry can be symbolized by a thousand different noises according to the culture we live in.

However obvious these facts may appear at first glance, they are actually not so obvious as they seem except when we take special pains to think about the subject. Symbols and the things they stand for are independent of each other, yet we all have a way of feeling as if, and sometimes acting as if, there were necessary connections. For example, there are people who feel that foreign languages are unreasonable by nature: foreigners have such funny names for things, and why can’t they call things by their right names? This feeling exhibits itself most strongly in those English and American tourists who seem to believe that they can make the natives of any country understand English if they shout loud enough. Like the little boy who is reported to have said: “Pigs are called pigs because they are such dirty animals,” they feel the symbol is inherently(内在地) connected in some way with the things symbolized.

69．Language is a highly developed system of symbols because human beings _________.

       A．have made use of language for centuries

       B．use our nervous systems to support language

       C．have made various noises stand for any events

       D．can make anything stand for anything by agreement

70．What can we conclude from Paragraph 2?

       A．Different noise may mean different things.

       B．Our culture determines what a symbol stands for.

       C．The language we use symbolizes our social positions.

       D．Our social positions determine the way we are dressed.

71．In Paragraph 3, “take special pains” probably means “________”.

       A．try very hard                                       B．take our time       

       C．are very unhappy                                 D．feel especially painful

72．The example of the little boy is used to show that ___________.

       A．adults often learn from their young

       B．“pig” is a dirty word because pigs are dirty

       C．words are not connected with the things they stand for

       D．people sometimes have wrong ideas about how language works

       There is a tendency to think of each of the arts as a separate area of activity . Many artists.  55    would prove that there has always been a warm relationship between the various areas of human activity.   56   , in the late nineteenth century the connections between music and painting were particularly    57    .Artists were invited to design clothes and settings for operas and ballets ,but sometimes it was the musicians who were inspired （给……以灵感）by the work of contemporary painters .Of the musical compositions that were considered as    58   to the visual arts ,perhaps the most famous is Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition.

       Mussorgsky composed the piece in 1874 after the death ,at the age of 39, of the artist Victor Hartmann.  59    their friendship had not been a particularly long-fasting one .Mussorgsky was shocked by Hartmann’s    60    death.The following year the critic .Vladimir. Stasov who decided to hold an exhibition of Hartmann’s work,suggested that Mussorgsky try to    61   his grief by writing something in memory of Hartmann.

       The exhibition served as Mussorgsky’s inspiration. The ten pieces that make up Pictures at an Exhibition are intended as   62    rather than representations of the paintings in the exhibition .Between each is a promenade（舞曲中的行进）,   63   the composer walks from one painting to another .The music is sometimes witty and playful sometimes almost alarming and frightening . Through a range of surprising    64   .Mussorgsky manages to convey the spirit of the artist and his work.
