英语翻译
How men first learnt 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 thought 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 present 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 associations - the things 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 sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn,the more the number of words that mean something increases.
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 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 will make our speech silly and vulgar.

人类究竟如何学会发明文字仍然未知.换句话说,语言的起源是个迷.
我们所真正知道的是,人类,与动物不同,以某种方式发明了某些声音去表达自己的思想、情感和行动等等,所以他们能够互相交流,之后,他们能够就某些符号达成共识,称这些经过组合能够表现那些声音、甚至被写下的符号为字母.那些声音,不论是说还是写的,我们称之为文字.
文字的力量在于它的联合,由我们的思想产生.通过经验,文字对于我们来说变得充满意义,我们生存越久,越多的文字能够使我们回忆起过往的开心和伤心事；我们越看得多,越学得多,深含意义的词汇量越会增大.
伟大的作家,是那些不仅有着伟大思想,而且能够用极其吸引我们思想情感的文字表达出这种伟大思想的人.这种文字引人入胜的有力使用我们称作文学风格.最重要的是,真正的诗人是文字的主人.他能够用如音乐般美妙的文字传达他的意思,联系以他们身处的环境,能够使人感动落泪.因此我们应该学会选择仔细选择自己的文字,精确地运用它们,要不然,它会让我们的说话变得可笑和粗俗.
