  When ^ art museum wants a new exhibit,

  (1) an来源:考

  it (never/) buys things in finished form and hangs

  them on the wall. When a natural history museum

  wants an exhibition, it must often build it.

  The grammatical words which play so large a part in English

  grammar are the most part sharply and obviously different from

  the lexical words. A rough and ready difference which may

  seem the most obvious is that grammatical words have "less

  (26)来源:考

  meaning", but in fact some grammarians have called them

  (27)来源:考

  "empty" words as opposed in the "full" words of vocabulary. But

  (28)

  this is a rather misled way of expressing the distinction. Although a

  (29)

  word like the is not the name of something as man is, it is very

  far away from being meaningless; there is a sharp difference in

  (30)

  meaning between "man is vile" and "the man is vile", yet the

  is the single vehicle of this difference in meaning.

  (31)

  Moreover, grammatical words differ considerably among

  (32)

  themselves as the amount of meaning they have even in the

  lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words has been

  (33)

  "little words". But size is by no meaning a good criterion for

  distinguishing the grammatical words of English, when we consider

  (34)

  that we have lexical words as go, man, say, car. Apart from

  this, however, there is a good deal of truth in what some people

  (35)

  say: we certainly do create a great number of obscurity when we

  omit them. This is illustrated not only in the poetry of Robert

  Browning but in the prose of telegrams and newspaper headlines.
