The development of writing was one of the great human inventions. It is difficult【C1】______many people to imagine language without writing; the spoken word seems intricately tied to the written【C2】______.
But children speak【C3】______they learn to write. And millions of people in the world speak languages with【C4】______written form. Among these people oral literature abounds, and crucial knowledge【C5】______memorized and passed【C6】______generations. But human memory is short-lived, and the brain’s storage capacity is finite. 【C7】______overcame such problems and allowed communication across the miles【C8】______through the years and centuries. Writing permits a society【C9】______permanently record its poetry, its history and its technology.
It might be argued【C10】______today we have electronic means of recording sound and【C11】______to produce films and television, and thus writing is becoming obsolete. 【C12】______writ-ing became extinct, there would be no knowledge of electronics【C13】______TV technicians to study; there would be, in fact, little technology in years to【C14】______. There would be no film or TV scripts, no literature, no books, no mails, no newspapers, no science. There would be【C15】______advantages; no bad novels, junk mails, poison-pen letters, or "unreadable" income-tax forms, but the losses would outweigh the【C16】______.
There are almost as【C17】______legends and stories on the invention of writing as there are【C18】______the origin of language. Legend has it that Cadmus, Prince of Phoenicia and founder of the city of Thebes, 【C19】______the alphabet and brought it with him to Greece. In one Chinese fable the four-eyed dragon-god T’sang Chien invented writing. In【C20】______myths, the Babylonian god Nebo and the Egyptian god Thoth gave humans writing as well as speech.
