In modern English some words were created by imitating the natural sounds or noises, and the sounds suggest their meanings, like bang, croak,and buzz. These words are _____ motivated.
A、onomatopoeically
B、morphologically
C、semantically
D、etymologically
【正确答案】：A
【题目解析】：onomatopoeic motivation (声音理据）就是指有些词所带有的声音和它的意义直接相关联。morphological motivation(词素理据) 是指词语的意义取决于它的每个词素的意义。semantic motivation（语义理据）指一个词的概念意义在头脑中产生的意义联想。 etymological motivation （词源理据）指的是词语的意义直接与词的来源有关系。题干中给的提示时模仿声音产生了这些词的含义，因此，答案是A选项。
