    How men first learned 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 association—the thing 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 the sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increase.
    Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also 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 （表达，传递）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 make our speech silly and vulgar.（粗俗的）
    48. Which of the following about a real poet is NOT true?
    A. He is less than a master of words.     
    B. His style is always charming.
    C. His poem can move men to tears.
    D. He can express his ideas in words that sing like music.
    49. Where does the real power of the words come from?
    A. From the words themselves.        
    B. From their characteristics.
    C. From their curiosity.     
    D. From their association.
    50. What is the main idea of the passage?
    A. The importance of choosing words.
    B. Where the real power of words come from.
    C. What great writers are like.
    D. We should learn to choose words carefully.

    There is a famous story about British poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. He was writing a poem when he was interrupted by a knock at the door.
    This was an age before telephones. Someone was delivering a message. When Coleridge got back to his poem, he had lost his inspiration. His poetic mood had been broken by the knock on his door. His unfinished poem, which could otherwise have been a masterpiece, would now never be more than a fragment (片段).
    This story tells how unexpected communication can destroy an important thought，which brings us to the cellphone.
    The most common complaint about cellphones is that people talk on them to the annoyance of people around them. But more damaging may be the cellphone’s disruption (中断) of our thoughts.
    We have already entered a golden age of little white lies about our cellphones, and this is by and large a healthy, protective development. “I didn’t hear it ring” or “I didn’t realize my phone had shut off” are among the lies we tell to give ourselves space where we’re beyond reach.
    The notion of being unreachable is not a new concept – we have “Do Not Disturb” signs on the doors of hotel rooms. So why must we feel guilty when it comes to cellphones? Why must we apologize if we decide to shut off the phone for a while?
    The problem is that we come from a long-established tradition of difficulty with distance communication. Until the recent mass deployment (使用) of cellphones, it was easy to communicate with someone next to us or a few feet away, but difficult with someone across town, the country or the globe. We came to take it for granted.
    But cellphones make long-distance communication common, and endanger our time by ourselves. Now time alone, or a conversation with someone next to us which cannot be interrupted by a phone, is something to be cherished. Even cellphone devotees, myself usually included, can’t help at times wanting to throw their phone away, or curse the day they were invented.
    But we don’t and won’t, and there really is no need. All that’s required to take back our private time is a general social recognition that we have the right to it. In other words, we have to develop a healthy contempt (轻视) for the rings of our own phones. Given the ease of making and receiving cellphone calls, if we don’t talk to the caller right now, we surely will shortly later.
    A cellphone call deserves no greater priority (优先考虑的事) than a random (随机的) word from the person next to us. Though the call on my cellphone may be the one–in–a–million from Steven Spielberg–who has finally read my novel and wants to make it his next movie. But most likely it is not, and I’m better off thinking about the idea I just had for a new story, or the slice of pizza I’ll eat for lunch.
    【小题1】What is the point of the anecdote（轶事，趣闻） about the poet Coleridge in the first three paragraphs?

    A．To direct readers’ attention to the main topic.
    B．To show how important inspiration is to a poet.
    C．To emphasize the disadvantage of not having a cellphone.
    D．To encourage readers to read the works of this poet.
    【小题2】What does the writer think about people telling “white lies” about their cellphones?
    A．It is a way of signaling that you don’t like the caller.
    B．It is natural to tell lies about small things.
    C．It is basically a good way to protect one’s privacy.
    D．We should feel guilty when we can’t tell the truth.
    【小题3】According to the author, what is the most annoying problem caused by cellphones?
    A．People get annoyed by the cellphone rings that they fail to notice anything else.
    B．People feel guilty when they are not able to answer their cellphones.
    C．Cellphones interrupt people’s private time.
    D．With cellphones it is no longer possible to be unreachable.
    【小题4】What does the last paragraph suggest?
    A．A person who calls us from afar deserves more of our attention.
    B．Steven Spielberg once called the author to talk about the author’s novel.
    C．You should always finish your lunch before you answer a call on the cellphone.
    D．Never let cellphones interfere too much with your life.
