The Continuing Popularity of the Fountain Pen
The fountain pen is still a very attractive and practical object, even in these days of cheap,【81】(dispose) ball-point and felt-tip pens. Few owners are【82】(differ) to it. Emotions range from a casual attraction to absolute passion. However, though the reasons for such profound【83】(attach) to the pen are many, the way people feel is【84】(universe).
What exactly is it then about this small cylindrical object that provokes such【85】(intense) of feeling? The most likely answer to this question is that【86】(base) the fountain pen is far more than a mere writing instrument. It is often seen as an【87】(assert) of the owner’s social standing. For some, the ornamentation is where its undoubted【88】(attract) lies. It can be adorned with gold, with diamonds or inlaid with floral or geometric designs.
A fountain pen should only be loaned out in【89】(except) circumstances, since in no time at all it will be altered by the second user’ s hand. This is one of the【90】(distinct) characteristics of the instrument, which makes each one unique and personal to its owner.
