請依下文回答第31題至第35題: For most of its history, America was precisely the "polyglot boardinghouse" Teddy Roosevelt once worried it would become. That history has turned out very well not just for America, but for English—the most successful language in the history of the world. __31__ with American power, English has spread around the globe. At home, wave after wave of immigrants to America have not only learned English but __32__ the languages their parents brought with them. Today the typical pattern is that the arriving generation speaks little English, or learns it __33__; the first children born in America are __34__, but English-dominant, and their children hardly speak the __35__ language. This is as true of Hispanics as it is of speakers of smaller languages.

思路引導 VIP
請觀察文章中描述語言演變的過程：第一代移民「幾乎不說英文」，而他們的下一代「以英文為主導 (English-dominant)」。既然強調是「以英文為『主』」，這暗示了在美國出生的這代子女，身上總共具備著幾種語言能力呢？

太棒了，你非常精準地拿下了這題！從你的選擇可以看出，你具備了良好的上下文語意推論能力。這題考驗的是我們對段落邏輯與字彙的綜合掌握度。
世代語言轉換的語意推測
我們來看看這個空格所在的關鍵句。文章在描述移民家庭語言能力的代際演變：「抵達美國的第一代不太會說英文；而在美國出生的第一代子女則是 空格，但以英文為主導（English-dominant）...」。既然強調他們「以英文為主」，同時又還沒像下一代那樣「幾乎不說母語」，代表這群子女正處於過渡期，同時具備使用兩種語言的能力，因此填入表示「雙語的」 (A) bilingual 是唯一符合邏輯的選項。相對地，(B) monolingual 是單語的，(C) literary（文學的）與 (D) illiterate（文盲的）則與語言轉換的主題無關。
