【正确答案】正确答案:Everyone speaks differently. A personal dialect of an individual speaker combines elements regarding regional, social, gender, and age variations. In other words, an individual speaker"s regional and social back ground, his/her gender and age jointly determine the way he/she talks. From this point, we can claim that "You are what you say". Following this claim, we may expand the scope of our observation by introducing some social factors that are believed to influence our language behavior in a social context. Among these factors, some major ones include a)class; b)gender; c)age; d)ethnic identity; e)education background; f)occupation and g)religious belief. In our daily speaking, the potential selection of linguistic forms can reflect the above factors, which determine our identities. For example, women use more "fancy" color terms such as "mauve" and "beige" ; use less powerful curse words; use more intensifiers such as "terrible" and "awful" ; use more tag questions. On the other hand, your way of speaking, to some extent, reflect your identity.
