35、ever are drinking coffee these days-but in smaller quantities than they used to.Some manufacturers of coffee makers are trying to take advantage of this trend by developing diminutive machines that brew smaller amounts of coffee.Two US appliance companies-Black&Decker,based in Towson,Maryland,and To
36、astmaster Inc.of Columbia,Missouri-have recently introduced drip coffee makers that brew one or two cup servings of coffee.Both of the products brew the coffee directly into a cup or mug,eliminating the need for a separate carafe.Since many people make a pot of coffee in the morning but drink only a
37、 single cup,the new coffee makers should reduce the wasted coffee.Black&Deckers Cup-at-a-Time costs$27,while Toastmasters Coffee Break Retails for$20.Black&Decker also makes a coffee maker that drips coffee directly into a carry-around thermal carafe.The carafe,a glass vacuum bottle,is supposed to k
38、eep the coffee fresh for hours.The product,called the Thermal Carafe Coffee-maker,comes with a built-in lid that opens during the brewing process and close when it is completed.There are several models,including one that firs under the counter,ranging from$60 to$110 in price.55.The main purpose of t

42、titude more strongly than Noah Webster(1758-1843).Born near Hartford,Connecticut,he received his education at Yale College and later began to practise law.But business in this profession was slow,and he was forced to turn to teaching.As a teacher,he soon discovered that the English school books then
43、 in use were unsatisfactory,and the American Revolution reduced the supply of such books as there were.Webster therefore began to work on three simple books on English,a spelling book,a grammar,and a reader,and these were the first books of their kind to be published in this country.The success of t
44、he first part was surprisingly great.It was soon issued again under the title THE AMERICAN SPELLING BOOK,and in this form about 80 million copies were sold during the next hundred years.From a profit of less than one cent a copy,Webster got most of his income for the rest of his life.Not only did th
45、e little book have great influence on many generations of school children,but it also had the effect or turning its authors attention to questions of language.In 1806 he produced a small dictionary,and this was followed by his greatest work,AN AMERICAN DICTIONARY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE,published in
46、 two volumes in1828.In both of these works and in many smaller writings he had one purpose:to show that the English language in his country was a truly American thing,developing in its own special way and deserving to be considered from an independent,American point of view.As he himself wrote,It is
47、 not only important,but in a degree necessary,that the people of this country should have an AMERICAN DICTIONARY of the English language;for,although the body of the language is the same as in England.some differences exist .No person in this country will be satisfied with the English definitions of
48、 the words congress,senate,assembly,court,and so forth,for although these are words used in England,yet they are applied in this country to express ideas which they do not express in that country.By giving American meanings and American pronunciation,by adopting a number of American spellings,and es
49、pecially by introducing quotations from American authors beside those from English literature,he was able,to a great extent,to justify the title of his work.If,after a hundred years,some people still doubt the existence of a separate American language,his efforts,nevertheless,have left a lasting mar
50、k on the language of his country.59.Webster first tried to earn his living in the field of A.education B.journalism C.law D.medicine 60.Apparently Webster published his first books while he was a _ A.teacher B.student C.lawyer D.doctor 61.This article could be entitled 精品文档.A.Noah Webster and Americ
