单选题{{B}}Passage 20{{/B}}
How men first learned to invent words
is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. (20) {{U}}All we
really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to
express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could
communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs,
called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which
could be written down.{{/U}} Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters,
we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their
combinations--the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled
with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain
words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and
learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us
increases. Great writers are those who not only have great
thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our
minds and feelings. This charming and telling use of words is what we call
literary (文字的) style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can
convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position
and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our
words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and
rude.
