Hello. This is as good a way as any to welcome you to this passage.

The

word

―hello‖

is

16

used

more

often

than

any

other

one

in

the

English

language. Everybody in the United States and elsewhere

17

the word, again and again,

every day of the week.

The first thing you hear when you

18

the phone is ―hello‖.

Where did the word come from? There are all sorts of beliefs. Some say it came from the

French, ―ho‖ and ―la‖—―Ho, there!‖ This

19

may have arrived in England during the

year 1066.

―Ho,

there‖

slowly

became

20

that

sounded

like

―hallow‖,

often

heard

in

the

1300’s.

Two hundred years later, ―hallow‖ had become ―halloo‖. And later, sounds like ―halloa‖

and

―hallo‖

were

often

used

by

sailors

and

huntsmen,

―Halloo‖

is

21

used

today

by

fox

hunters.

As time

22

, ―halloo‖ and ―halloa‖ changed into ―hullo‖

.

And during the 1800’s this

was how people greeted each other in America.

The

American

inventor,

Thomas

Edison,

is

believed

to

be

the

23

person

to

use

―hello‖ in the late 1800’s, soon after the invention of the telephone.

At first, people had greeted each other on the telephone

24

―Are you there?‖

They

were not sure the new instrument could really

25

voices.

2

Thomas Edison, however, was a man of

26

words. He wasted no time. The first

time he picked up the phone he did not ask if anyone was there. He was

27

someone was,

and simply said, ―Hello‖.

From that time on

—

only

about 100 years ago,

the ―hullo‖ became ―hello‖ as it is heard

today.

Of

course,

there

are

other

28

Americans

greet

one

another.

Not

long

ago,

people

often

said,

―How

are

you?‖

when

they

first

met

someone.

This

later

became

―hiyah‖.

Then,

someone

thought that two syllables were too much and ―hiyah‖ became ―hi‖. Laziness is a strong

force in

29

language.

Answering

a

telephone

call

in

America

still

presents

problems;

however,

telephone

companies

think

that

Thomas

Edison’s

short

―hello‖

is

too

l

ong.

Why

waste

time?

The

phone

companies say. Simply pick up the phone,

30

your name, and start talking.

When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many

Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place

Costa Rica, which means ―rich coast‖ in Spanish.

Though

little

gold

was

found,

Costa

Rica

today

is

indeed

rich

with

coffee

and

bananas.

Coffee

is

the

most

important

product

in

Costa

Rica

and

most

it

is

exported

(

出口

)

to

other

countries

Germany.

the

export.

is

very

important

to

the

Costa

Ricans.

education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to

separate (

Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people

on the island had a disease called beri-beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.

At

first,

Eijkman

thought

some

kind

of

germ

(

细菌

)

caused

beri-beri.

He

raised

some

chickens.

He

didn’t

eat

them,

but

made

experiments

on

them.

The

local

people

were

quite

surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food

most

Javanese

ate

—

refined

white

rice

(

精炼米

).

When

he

fed

them

with

unrefined

rice,

also

known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery

—

that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (

维生素

).

The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that

contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a

person’s food.

Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough

vit

amins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.

36

. The underlined word ―cure‖ in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.

A. a medical treatment

C. a kind of germ

B. a kind of vitamin

D. a kind of rice

37. Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______.

A. spend his holiday

B. find ways to grow better crops
