The nature of language is the nature of human thought and
human action, for language is no more nor less than the tool of both
of these aspects of human nature. A word is either the shadow of an
act or of an idea. Verbal sounds have no meaning themselves. They【M1】______
are the channels, the medium for the expression or communication of【M2】______
that which lay outside of themselves. Plato has made clear to us how【M3】______
easy it is to deceive ourselves with words, to labor under an impression
that just because we can utter a sound we also necessarily know
that we are talking about Words may be empty vessels and pour out【M4】______
no more than hollow sounds. We find it simple to define some words
and extremely difficult to define others words. The reason is that the【M5】______
definition of a word is the experience of records. Hence the definiteness【M6】______
of a definition of a word is in proportion at the vividness of the【M7】______
experience, its meaning. We readily define chair because of our
frequent experience with the object which the sound is a symbol.【M8】______
We define it in terms of our experience like an object to sit ia But a【M9】______
definition of terms like "truth", or "virtue", or "honesty", or "beauty"
is a most severe trial because of the haziness or complete lack for【M10】______
experiences of this nature. What, then, is the source of the meaning of
words? What is the relationship between words, things, and actions?
【M3】
选项
答案
lay→lies
解析
词汇错误,易混词误用。lay本身为及物动词,意为“放置”。同时,lay也是不及物动词lie(平躺、位于)的过去式。由本句时态和句意推知,此处应用lie(位于)的第三人称单数形式lies。
