Directions:
Read the following text. Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Punishment depends as much on politics as it does on crime: crime rates have been stable in recent years but there’ s been a striking increase in the prison population, And because populism is coming so much to (1) the political agendas, politicians are advocating sharp increases in penalties to take (2) of public unease. The question is how far this will get. In the 21st century weak governments might try to win legitimacy by being especially (3) on crime. That could mean high prison populations and draconian (4) such as those adopted in the United States in recent years.
Luckily, there remain significant differences between the UK and the USA: social divisions are less extreme and racial (5) are not as high. (6) there is a great deal of minor violent crime here, rates of murder— (7) particularly fuel public anxieties—are much (8) because guns have not been so widely (9) . It’ s unlikely that this will change greatly: the (10) to tighten up the gun laws in Britain will continue ,and all (11) the toughest criminals will still have a view about what is and what isn’t "acceptable violence.
So I don’ t believe we will see a huge (12) in violent crime, but I (13) rates of property crime and crimes of opportunity to remain high. There will also be much more electronic fraud because it’ s so hard to (14) and pr. This is an important problem for business, but not one that (15) much popular agitation.
It’ s unlikely we’ll see the return of the death penalty: the police are (16) about its effectiveness and its reintroduction would be highly problematic (17) the recent Council of Europe protocol outlawing its use. (18) punishment remains a pretty accurate temperature gauge, though: (19) there is significant political pressure for the death penalty, it’ s a (20) of harsher attitudes towards crime generally.

【单选题】What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean() A.People are aware of what kind of languages they are using while speaking. B.People can distinguish the types of languages well than exp...

A.
Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a language in any situation regardless of the level of formality. As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed in standard dictionaries. Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all speakers of a language and used in informal speech or writing, but not considered appropriate for more formal situations. Almost all idiomatic expressions are colloquial language. Slang, however, refers to words and expressions understood by a large number of speakers but not accepted as good, formal usage by the majority. Colloquial expressions and even slang may be found in standard dictionaries but will be so identified. Both colloquial usage and slang are more common in speech than in writing.
B.
Colloquial speech often passes into standard speech. Some slang also passes into standard speech, but other slang expressions enjoy momentary popularity followed by obscurity. In some cases, the majority never accepts certain slang phrases but nevertheless retains them in their collective memories. Every generation seems to require its own set of words to describe familiar objects and events.
C.
It has been pointed out by a number of linguists that three cultural conditions are necessary for the creation of a large body of slang expressions. First, the introduction and acceptance of new objects and situations in the society; second, a diverse population with a large number of subgroups; third, association among the subgroups and the majority population.
D.
Finally, it is worth noticed that the terms "standard" "colloquial" and "slang" exist only as abstract labels for scholars who study language. Only a tiny number of the speakers of any language will be aware that they are using colloquial or slang expressions. Most speakers of English will, during appropriate situations, select and use all three types of expressions.

Good traveling conditions (22) a comfortable mode of transportation, knowledge of the (23) language, familiarity (24) the custom and habits of the people in the country, and pleasant traveling (25) .

Students who travel to a (32) country to study often have a difficult trip. They usually travel (33) . They don’t know the language of the new country (34) .
