19、ect choice. 35 To the professional linguist, there is no superiority of any language. Therefore, it is well-accepted in the field of linguistics that there exist no higher or lower grades among languages. People once thought of the languages of backward groups as undeveloped forms of speech, consist

20、ing largely of rough and simple sounds. It is possible that language in general began as a series of simple sounds. But it is a fact established by the study of “backward“ languages that no spoken tongue answers that description. Most languages of “backward“ groups are extremely complex pieces of to

21、ol for the transfer of ideas. They “fall behind“ the western languages not in their sound pattern or grammatical structures but only in their vocabularies. The sound pattern or grammatical structures usually are fully adequate for all language needs. The vocabulary reflects the objects and activitie

22、s known to their speakers. There are two things to be noted. Firstly, all languages seem to possess ways for vocabulary expansion.

The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 40 Some people argue that self-plagiarism(自我剽窃 )is impossib

28、le by definition because plagiarism is theft and people cannot steal from their own work. But, this is not correct in law. And there are circumstances, such as insurance fraud(保险欺 诈 ), etc., when it is possible to steal from oneself. Self-plagiarism, however, must be carefully distinguished from the

29、 recycling of ones work that to a greater or lesser extent everyone legally does. Self-plagiarism in academic(学术的 )publications is a gray area. However, many universities indirectly recognize the practice as deceptive. They publish rules preventing students from handing in basically the same essay f

30、or credit in different courses. There are also rules against someone handing in the same graduate thesis to different universities. Among established academics, self-plagiarism is a problem.

31、otion. Like all plagiarism the essence of self-plagiarism is the author attempts to cheat the reader. This happens when no indication is given that the work is being recycled or when an effort is made to disguise the original text. For example, an author just makes cosmetic changes to make the same

32、article, chapter, or book look different. But actually it remains unchanged in its central argument. In this case, disguising a text occurs. Authors change such things as paragraph breaks, capitalization, or the substitution of technical terms in different languages. What he has done is to make read

33、ers believe they are reading something completely new.

36、C） the writers deception on himself （ D） the writers deception on the reader 44 The word “cosmetic“ in the last paragraph means _. （ A） beautiful （ B） detailed （ C） surface （ D） general 45 Which of the following does NOT belong to self-plagiarism? （ A） No indication about the recycling of the work.
