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.

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.

A、written down

C、remembered
D、observed
答案
A

written down表示“被写下来”,符合语境,且和下旬话中的“written”呼应。handed down表示“被传下来”;remembered表示“被记忆”;observed表示“被观察”,都不符合文意。故答案为A。
