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 (表達,傳遞)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)
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.
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.
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.

Edmund Halley(哈雷)was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets(彗星)which other scientists had made. The orbit(軌道)of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not work it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.
However, Halley had a friend named Newton, who was a brilliant(有才華的) mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse(橢圓).
Now Halley set to work. He worked out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by other scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607, and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart(相隔).
This seemed very strange to Halley. The different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three different comets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.
It was an amazing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction(預(yù)言)of what would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halley’s prediction could be tested.
In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet has been called Halley’s comet, in his honor.
Edmund Halley worked out the orbit of ____________.
A. some different comets appearing several times
B. the same comet appearing at different times
C. three different comets appearing three times
D. several comets appearing at the same time
Halley made his discovery ____________.
A. by doing experiments
B. by means of his own careful observation
C. by studying the work of other scientists
D. by chance
Halley made a surprising, but correct prediction(預(yù)言)in the year ____________.
A. 1704 B. 1705 C. 1706 D. 1707
This passage in general is about ____________.
A. Halley and other scientists B. the orbit of a comet
C. Newton and Halley D. Halley and his discovery
According to the passage, which of the flowing is NOT true?
A. Newton worked out the orbit of the comet.
B. Halley worked out the orbit of the comet first.
C. Newton gave Halley some help.
D. Halley died before 1758.
