14.Etymology,the study of words and word roots,may sound like the kind of thing done by boring librarians in small,dusty rooms.Yet etymologists actually have a uniquely interesting job.They are in many ways just like archaeologists (考古学家) digging up the physical history of people and events.The special aspect of etymology is that it digs up history,so to speak,through the words and phrases that are left behind.
The English language,in particular,is a great field to explore history through words.As a language,English has an extraordinary number of words.This is partly due to its ability to adapt foreign words so readily.For example,"English"words such as kindergarten (from German),croissant (from French),and cheetah (from Hindi) have become part of the language with little or no change from their original sounds and spellings.So English-language etymologists have a vast world of words to explore.
Another enjoyable thing about etymology for most word experts is solving word mysteries (谜).No,etymologists do not go around solving murders,like the great detective Sherlock Holmes.What these word experts solve are mysterious origins of some of our most common words.
One of the biggest questions English language experts have pursued is how English came to have the phrase OK.Though it is one of the most commonly used expressions,its exact beginning is a puzzle even to this day.Even its spelling is not entirely consistent--unless you spell it Okay,it is hard even to call it a word.
Etymologists have been able to narrow OK's origin down to a likely,although not certain,source (来源).It became widely used around the time of Martin Van Buren's run for president in 1840.His nickname was Old Kinderhook.What troubles word experts about this explanation is that the phrase appeared in some newspapers before Van Buren became well known.It is likely that Van Buren could be called its primary source.Etymologists will doubtlessly keep searching for the original source.However,it is clear that OK's popularity and reputation have topped those of the American president to whom it has been most clearly linked.

1.In many parts of the world,cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them.(71)E But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously,not only by government but also by car manufacturers.
    The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an international research program.(72)AThat will mean much saving,no accidents and better use of roads.The super-intelligent car in the future will drive itself.(73)CInstead,we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.
     According to Dr.David Davis,who leads the research team,these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture,which had blocked up our cities,polluted our air,and caused more deaths than both world wars put together.
    Davis says.ears will be fitted with some intelligent devices(装置)to regulate(调节)the distance between one car and another.(74)GComputers are much safer drivers than people,so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people. 
    By 2010,Dr.David Davis believes,car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road,whatever the weather conditions,by projecting an image of the road ahead on to the car's windscreen.(75)DCars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form"road-trains"."The front vehicle in such a train bums the normal amount."says Davis."but all the others in the train would bum about ten percent of the normal amount,and so produce about ten percent of the pollution."

A.The team there believes that by 2030 all cars will be computerized.
B.They believe that cars will become more important in 20 years.
C.And it will not be owned by one individual.
D.And by 2030,cars will travel in line,linked to each other electronically.
E.So the idea that in 20 years'time,no one will own cars may be hard to believe.
F.Every driver will use less fuel in the car he owns.
G.The car will automatically speed up,or slow down,to match the speed of the car in front.
