Passage One
How men first learnt to invent words is unknown;in other words,the origin of language is a mystery.All we really know is that men,unlike animals,somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings,actions and things,so that they could communicate with each other;and that later they agreed upon certain signs,called letters,which could be combined to represent those sounds,and which could be written down.Those sounds,whether spoken,or written in letters we call words.The power of words,then,lies in their associations____the things they bring up 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 events of our past.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions.This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary 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 association 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 ridiculous.

11.What do we know about the origin of language?
12.Where does the real power of words lie?
13.Which of the following statements about the real poet is not true?
Passage Two
Too often young people get themselves employment quite by accident,not knowing what lies in the way of opportunity for promotion,happiness and security.As a result,they are employed doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction.Our school graduates face so much competition that they seldom care what they do so long as they can earn a living.Some stay long at a job and learn to like it,others move from one job to another looking for something to suit them.The young graduates who leave the university look forjobs that offer a salary up to their expectations.Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and realizing their own abilities.Nearly all search about in the darkness and their chief concern when they look for a job is to ask what the salary is like.They never bother to think whether they are suited for the job or,even more important,whether the job suits them.Having a job is more than merely providing yourself and your dependents with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment.It sets a pattern of life and,in many ways,determines social status in life,selection of friends,leisure and interests.In choosing a career you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interests.Nothing is more sad than taking on a job in which you have no interest,for it will not only discourage your desire to succeed in life but also waste your talents and ultimately make you an emotionally bitter person.
