other human beings. Each of us shares with the community in which we
live a store of words and meanings as well as agreeing conventions as (1)
to the way in which words should be arranged to convey a particular (2)
message: the English speaker has iii his disposal at vocabulary and a (3)
set of grammatical rules which enables him to communicate his (4)
thoughts and feelings, ill a variety of styles, to the other English (5)
speakers. His vocabulary, in particular, both that which he uses active-

he has a means of expressing it in terms able to be seen by another (7)
member of his linguistic community. he bas to give tile system a
concrete transmission form. We take it for granted rice’ two most (8)
common forms of transmission-by means of sounds produced by our
vocal organs (speech) or by visual signs (writing). And these are (9)
among most striking of human achievements. (10)
