Many years ago a French naturalist Comte de Buffon wrote some books about natural history The books were a great success even though some critics(批评家)did not like them
Thomas Jefferson did not like what Comte de Buffon had said about the natural wonders(奇观)of the New World It seemed to Jefferson that Comte de Buffon had spoken of natural wonders in America as if()they were unimportant
This troubled Thomas Jefferson He was also a naturalist as well as a farmer an inventor a historian a writer and a politician(政治家) He had seen the natural wonders of Europe To him they were no more important than those of the New World
In 1788 Thomas Jefferson wrote about his home state Virginia While writing he thought of its natural beauty and then of the words of Comte de Buffon At that moment Jefferson created a new word—belittle He said Comte de Buffon believes that nature belittles her productions on this side of the Atlantic(西洋)
Noah Webster the American word expert liked this word He put it in the English language dictionary in 1806 Belittle—to make small unimportant
Americans had already accepted Jefferson’s word and started to use it In 1797 the Independent Chronicle(独立纪事报)used the word to describe a politician the paper supported It is an honorable man the paper wrote so let the opposition try to belittle him as much as they please
In 1872 a famous American word expert decided that the time had come to kill this word He said Belittle shouldn’t become English And more critical writers of America like those of Britain feel no need of it
This expert failed to kill the word Today belittle is used where the English language is spoken
53 Thomas Jefferson was NOT a ______
A naturalist B historian C politician D musician
54 We can infer(推断)that Jefferson created the word belittle out of his ______
A anger B excitement C kindness D responsibility

A It has already disappeared from the English language
B It had been used before it was put in the English language dictionary
C It is used to describe natural wonders now
D An American politician decided to kill this word in 1872
