Everyone knows that human language can be a superb

means of communication. Therefore, it can be damnably 【M1】______

misleading, a barrier to people"s understanding with each

other, and never more so than when names given for the

ease of classification are taken to mean more than they 【M2】______

do. If, for instance, they say that this man is white and 【M3】______

that man coloured, we say no more than truth as long 【M4】______

as we understand that we are speaking only of the colour

of the skin. We can also make neutral and honest

comments such as that "A" is above average height,

has little than the average intelligence, is red- 【M5】______

haired, is born in the north, and is left-handed. The

danger raises when we find other men who are white 【M6】______

or coloured, who are tall, stupid, red-haired, northerners,

or sinister. It is then we begin to correlate one fact with 【M7】______

another and to make assumptions about other characteristics,

which we believe are linked to the features we first observe.

So that when we talk about the white or the coloured, 【M8】______

we apt to imply and believe that each adjective tells us 【M9】______

more about the person in the question than it can. We 【M10】______

are making them into portmanteau words into which

we have packed our hopes,our wishes,our prejudices and our fears.

【M1】
