Neurocognitive Linguistics is an attempt to understand the linguistic system of the human brain. The object of investigation is the mental system that supports our language processing __________. That is the basic challenge facing neurocognitive linguistics. But since our linguistic systems are housed in our brains, we have no choice but to treat language as a mental phenomenon

  • A.Man has always been fascinated by amazing facts about his own brain
  • B.Of course, this mental system is not directly observable
  • C.There have been numerous kinds of research done on the brain structure
  • D.There was one single professor famous for his ideas about the function of the brain

Answer: B

Correct answer: Of course, this mental system is not directly observable

The sentence after the blank begins that is the basic challenge, so the blank must state a difficulty. A system that cannot be observed directly is exactly such a difficulty, and the following sentence - but since our linguistic systems are housed in our brains, we have no choice - answers it. The other three options state facts about brain research, none of which poses a problem for the discipline.
