A rough and ready difference which may ? seem the most obvious is that grammatical words have“ less? 1.___ meaning”, but in fact some grammarians have called them 2.___? “empty” words as opposed in the “full” words of vocabulary. 3.___ But this is a rather misled way of expressing the distinction. 4.___ Although a word like the is not the name of something as man is,? it is very far away from being meaningless; there is a sharp 5.___ difference in meaning between “man is vile and” “the man is? vile”, yet the is the single vehicle of this difference in meaning. 6.___ Moreover, grammatical words differ considerably among themselves as the amount of meaning they have, even in the 7.___ lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words has been? “little words”. But size is by no mean a good criterion for 8.___ distinguishing the grammatical words of English, when we? consider that we have lexical words as go, man, say, car.

This is illustrated not only in the poetry of? Robert Browning but in the prose of telegrams and newspaper headlines. 1.答案： 删除seem后的the　　【详细解答】本句中的most为副词，不是最高级形式，故不用定冠词the。翻译为“极其”　　2.答案：but→and　　【详细解答】根据文章内容判断，but后面的陈述与前文并不是相反之意，而是并列关系。　　3.答案：in→to　　【详细解答】as opposed to为固定搭配，意为“与……对照，与……相比”。　　4.答案：misled→misleading　　【详细解答】根据句意，这里的方式（way）是对他人有误导，不是被他人误导。所以应该用m islead的现在分词表示主动的含义。　　5.答案：away　　【详细解答】far away from意为“距离某处很远”，而far from being则意为“远不是，远 够不上”。根据上下文，这里是说“远非毫无意义”，故应该用短语far from being。　　6.答案：single→only　　【详细解答】此处用only修饰vehicle比用single更符合习惯用法。　　7.答案：as→in　　【详细解答】本句中的介词in表示“在……方面”，as则无此意。　　8.答案：mean→means　　【详细解答】by n
