  When somebody dies, many people believe that the spirit of the person still lives. They believe that the spirit leaves the person's body at the moment he dies but then continues to exist outside the body somewhere else. Ghosts are often believed to be the spirits of the dead, who are showing themselves to the living. The spirit, or ghost, is present but not the body. That is a possible reason why ghosts can travel through solid walls.

  Some people believe that it is possible to talk or communicate with spirits. This is called spiritualism. Most people can't speak to spirits directly themselves but there are people who have special powers which allow them to speak to the dead. These people are called mediums.

Many people believe that spirits know what is going to happen in the future so they ask a medium to ask the spirits what their future will be.

  In the 1930s, a lot of people in the USA were out of work. Among these people was a man named Alfred Butts. He always had an interest in word games and so, to fill his time, he planned a game that he called“Lexico”. However, he was not completely satisfied with the game, so he made a number of changes to it and, in time, changed its name from “Lexico”to“Alph”and then to“Criss Cross”.He wanted to make some money from his new game but he didn't have any real commercial(商业性的)success.

  In 1939, Butts happened to meet a man called Jim Brunot who showed an interest in the new game. The two men worked together on developing the game and in 1948 it was offered for sale in the United States under its new name-“Scrabble”.

  At first it didn't sell very well. In the first year it sold just 2250 sets and by 1952 it had only reached 8500 sets a year.

  Then, in 1952 the manager of Macy's department store in New York, Jack Strauss, happened to play“Scrabble”while he was on holiday. He thought it was a wonderful game and, when he went back to work after his holiday, he insisted that Macy's should stock(储备) the game and make an effort(努力) to call the public's attention to it.

  As a result,“Scrabble”became a big success in the United States and it soon spread to Australia and then to other English-speaking countries.

The text is mainly about ________.

[  ]

A.Lexico
B.three men
C.a word game
D.Alfred Butts
