How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words,
the origin of the language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, (1)______
unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought (2)______
and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with
each other; and mat latter they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, (3)______
which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could
be written down. Those sounds, whether be spoken or written in letters, (4)______
we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their associations — the
things they take up before our minds. Words become filled with meanings (5)______
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 mat mean something to us increase. Great (6)______
writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these
thoughts in words appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. (7)______
This charming use of words is that we call literary style. Above all, the (8)______
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 with tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and (9)______
use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and dully. (10)______
