The relationship between sound and meaning is ______because people ofthe same speech community have agreed to refer to the thing or the person with this cluster ofsounds.[ ]
A、arbitrary
B、conventional
C、symbolic
D、fixed
【正确答案】:B
【题目解析】:该题考查声音和意义的关系,实际上,它们的关系既是随机的,也是约定俗成。声音和所指物之间的关系是随机的,也就是某个东西和那个声音之间的联系不是必然,比如同一个东西各种语言中表达它的词语发音是很不相同的。但是同一个语言群体中,词的声音和意义的关系又是约定俗称的。答案B符合上下文的内容,同一个语言群体中,语言的声音和意义的关系一旦形成,就不变了,即约定俗称。
