How men first learned to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a【B1】______. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to【B2】______thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they【B3】______certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be【B4】______. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their combinations — the things they【B5】______before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad【B6】______of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal【B7】______to our minds and feelings. This charming and telling use of words is what we call【B8】______style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and【B9】______can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and【B10】______.
【B1】
