How men first learned to invent words is unknown;【C1】______. the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain【C2】______to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, 【C3】______they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed【C4】______certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be【C5】______. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their【C6】______-the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; 【C7】______the longer we live, the more certain words【C8】______to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us【C9】______.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal【C10】______to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call【C11】______style. Above all, the real poet is a master of【C12】______. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which【C13】______their position and association can【C14】______men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will【C15】______our speech or writing silly and vulgar.

选项
A、sounds
B、gestures
C、signs
D、movements
答案
A
解析
根据句意及常识,人会发出某种特定的声音来表示相应的思想感情,因此应选表示“声音”的A项sounds。此外在后文中有to represent those sounds,也可推出此处用sounds。gestures表示“手势,姿态”;signs表示“标记,符号,记号”;movements表示“运动,移动”。故答案为A。
