When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school enrolled him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something odd among themselves, students signed differently from his classroom teacher.
Stokoe had been taught a sort of gestural code, each movement of the hands representing a word in English. At the time, American Sign Language(ASL) was thought to be no more than a form. of pidgin English(混杂英语). But Stokoe believed the "band talk" his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually have a genuine language？ And could that language be unlike any other on Earth？ It was 1955, when even deaf people dismissed their signing as "substandard". Stokoe's idea was academic heresy(异端邪说).
It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books and journals and to producing video materials on ASL and the deaf culture—is having lunch at a cafe near the Gallaudet campus and explaining how he started a revolution. For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese. They assumed language must be based on speech, the modulation(调解) of sound. But sign language is based on the movement of hands, the modulation of space. "What I said," Stokoe explains, "is that language is not mouth stuff—it's brain stuff."
The study of sign language is thought to be ______.
A．a new way to look at the lemming of language
B．a challenge to traditional views on the nature of language
C．an approach to simplify the grammatical structure of a language
D．an attempt to clarify misunderstanding about the origin of language
