问题     The main reason for developing a better vocabulary is to receive and send out thoughts better. Not just words —but ideas that words【S1】______. The person with a good vocabulary is impressive, it’s true. But he or she is also better able to get across and understand【S2】______thoughts.
    The power of words is so strong that it can even influence the way you see the world. Words not only【S3】______your thoughts, in some cases they can also help form them. For example, a certain American tribe does not have【S4】______words in its language for yellow and orange. As a result its members cannot【S5】______between the two colors. Their language —or vocabulary— decides what they "see."
    Words give you the building blocks with which you think. How many times have you been unable to tell your【S6】______what’s wrong with your car because you lack the vocabulary? How accurately can you describe a sunset if your vocabulary only includes light and dark?
    However, simple words do not mean a simple mind. Many adults have【S7】______thoughts. But those thoughts come out garbled (混乱不清的) and too simple because of a small vocabulary. They have no choices but to use the same words to express too many different kinds of thoughts. Results: poor communication. These adults with small vocabularies just cannot express the【S8】______of meaning. They may have, however, as much depth and【S9】______as their more well-spoken friends.
    Your vocabulary is your power. It determines the shape and size of your world. It tells you who you can or cannot talk with. It says what books you can read and which ideas you can understand. It is your main【S10】______to other people.

A) mature            B) implications         C) mechanic          D) indicate
E) distinguish       F) reflect              G) subtle            H) link
I) represent         J) individual           K) insight           L) separate
M) shades            N) connection           O) complex
