Some psychologists go further更进一步[23]. They say that the whole point of language is gossip. Our ability to tell stories wins us friends. It makes us respected.[24] It helps us meet the right husband or wife or make lots of money. This is called the “Chat up” theory of language development.[25]
有些心理学家言之更甚。他们说语言的意义在于闲聊。我们的讲故事能力为我们赢得朋友，使我们受人尊敬。这种能力帮助我们找到合适的丈夫或妻子，帮助我们赚很多钱。这被称为语言发展的“攀谈”理论。 ]]> http://zhexue.51.net/read.php?34 helen <> 英语小点滴 Mon, 22 Jan 2007 01:47:33 +0000 http://zhexue.51.net/read.php?34
