10、 loss of ABSL is regret. It is a fascinating language that has kept linguists busy since it came to their attention around 15 years ago. But for the deaf villagers，Israeli Sign Language is an upgrade：it allows them to speak to tens of thousands of people rather than a few hundred, and enables them t

16、es.CPeople feel ashamed of language extinction.DLanguage extinction is not necessarily a bad thing.【语篇解读】本文为说明文，主要介绍了在语言濒临灭绝的时候，人们的本能反应是感到惋惜，毕竟每一门语言都是文化和思想的体现，是观察世界的一种独特方式，每消失一种语言就会使人类知识的总量减少一点儿。然而，在有些情况下，我们可以以积极的态度看待语言的消亡。1B推理判断题。根据第二段可知，ABSL手语大约有1000人使用，并且由于以色列手语的传播，它似乎注定会灭亡，所以ABSL是濒危语言。故选B项。2C词义猜
17、测题。根据划线词后的内容可知，以色列手语让耳聋的村民们可以与更多的人交流，并且能够让他们在村子外面找到工作以及与外面的人联姻。即以色列手语比ABSL手语更能满足人们的需求；再结合后文提到的“anything other than progress”可推出划线词意为“改善”。故选C项。3B推理判断题。根据第四段可知，技术可以帮助复活濒危语言。故选B项。4D主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了人们可以从积极的一面去看待濒危语言。一方面濒危语言被能更好地服务于人们的语言代替，这是一种进步；另一方面科技也可以让某些濒危语言复活，因此人们对待语言灭绝的态度应当改变，因为它未必是件坏事。故选D项。阅读加油站cond
