(单选题)

Which of the following sentences best fit in the blank in the second paragraph? ( )

A.They found that Russian does not actually has the most complex grammar rules compared to other languages.

B.They tend to find that big languages spoken by large numbers of people are actually simpler than small ones.

C.They found that there is not any pattern about the relation between the complexity of a language and its' popularity.

D.They found that laypeople usually pay attention to whether the vocabulary in one language is complex or simple.

参考答案：B

参考解析：

通过前一句的转折词But可知，横线处所持观点与首段观点相反，故选B，意为：“他们倾向于认为，庞大的语言即在广袤地区很多人讲的语言反倒比那些讲的人少又比较孤立的语言来的简单。”A项只涉及俄语，回答片面，C项结论错误，D项与上文的相反的结论不相关。故本题正确答案选B。
