D【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章叙述的是有关“语言”的一些事宜。纵观历史，人们一直对语言的起源很感兴趣，但没有人确切地知道这是在哪里或如何发生的。【16题详解】考查副词。A. But但是；B. So所以；C. However然而；D. Besides另外。语言的起源一直是人们感兴趣的事情，但是没人确切地知道语言的起源究竟是怎样的。然而，我们还是对语言有许多了解。but后不能出现逗号。故选C。【17题详解】考查名词。A. English英语；B. history历史；C. Chinese汉语；D. languages语言。由上下文可知，此处一直是在讲对语言的认识，而不单纯是对汉语或英语的认识。故选D。【18题详解】考查副词。A. earlier更早；B. later更迟；C. modern现代的；D. hard努力地。人们对现在的语言以及更早的语言有所了解。由上下文可知，此处与today对应。故选A。【19题详解】考查时态和主谓一致。由后面的“about three thousand languages in the world today”可知，此处应用be动词的一般现在时的复数形式。故选B。【20题详解】考查介词。由with引导的介词短语作定语，修饰language，表示“汉语是使用人数最多的一种语言”。故选B。【21题详解】考查词组。A. In a word总之；B. On the one hand一方面；C. Whats more另外；D. On the other hand另一方面。上文指出汉语是使用人数最多的一种语言，接着又说英语、俄语和西班牙语也有数百万人使用，后文话锋一转讲到，还有不到一百人使用的语言，所以此处用on the other hand。故选D。【22题详解】考查名词。A. forms形式；B. systems系统；C. families家庭；D. changes改变。由后面的内容可知，语言有几大语系，用families表示。下文的one large family也是提示。故选C。23题详解】考查名词。A. Europe欧洲；B. Asia亚洲；C. Africa非洲；D. America美洲。由后面的“Indo-European language family”可知，欧洲的大多数语言都属于一个大的语系印欧语系。故选A。【24题详解】考查动词。此处是过去分词called作定语，表示“被称作”。故选A。【25题详解】考查副词。由前面的“was spoken”可知，此处应该用与一般过去时连用的ago，before用于过去完成时的句子中。故选B。【26题详解】考查名词。A. times时代，次数；B. families家庭；C. forms形式；D. members成员。现在印度与欧洲的一些语言实际上就是4,500年以前的语言的现代形式(forms)。故选C。【27题详解】考查副词。A. always总是；B. seldom几乎，难得；C. often经常；D. sometimes有时候。由下文可知，语言一直都在发展变化，always与现在进行时连用表示“总是”。故选A。【28题详解】考查固定搭配。be different from“与不同”，为固定短语。故选D。【29题详解】考查动词短语辨析。A. die out灭绝；B. die away减弱，消失；C. die down逐渐消失；D. die off相继死去。经过一段时间有些语言完全消失了。故选A。【30题详解】考查名词。A. Spanish西班牙语；B. English英语；C. Chinese汉语；D. Russian俄语。一千年前的英语还与当时人们讲的德语有亲戚关系。故选B。【31题详解】考查动词。表示“讲(某种语言)”用speak，此处用过去分词作定语表示被动。故选C。【32题详解】考查词组。讲某种语言的人多或某种语言很古老，那么不同地区人们说话的方式就有差别。A、C项只修饰不可数名词；a few表示“几个”，意义不符。故选D。【33题详解】考查名词。由上文可知此处指人们说话方式的不同，用复数形式。故选B。【34题详解】考查固定结构。A. That is也就是说；B. Therefore因此；C. In fact事实上；D. However然而。此处是对上文的说明：也就是说(that is)，一种语言可能有几种方言。故选A。【35题详解】考查情态动词。方言的差别如此之大，以至于来自不同地区的人都无法相互沟通。此处表示“不会，不能”，故用cant。故选D。浙江省嘉兴市2020-2021学年高二上学期期末检测英语试题第一节：完形填空（共20个小题；每小题L5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选
