Part 2. Questions 66 – 75 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each)
Read the passage below and choose the best answer to each question.
Few men have influenced the development of American English to the extent that Noah Webster did. Born
in West Hartford, Connecticut, in 1758, his name has become synonymous with American dictionaries. Graduated
from Yale in 1778, he was admitted to the bar in 1781 and thereafter began to practice law in Harford. Later, when
he turned to teaching, he discovered how inadequate the available schoolbooks were for the children of a new and
independent nation.
In response to the need for truly American textbooks, Webster published A Grammatical Institute of the
English Language, a three-volume work that consisted of speller, a grammar, and a reader. The first volume, which
was generally known as The American Spelling Book, was so popular that eventually it sold more than 80 million
copies and provided him with a considerable income for the rest of life. While teaching, Webster began work on
the Compendious Dictionary of the English Language, which was published in 1806.
In 1807, Noah Webster began his greatest work, An American Dictionary of the English Language. In
preparing the manuscript, he devoted ten years to the study of English and its relationship to other languages, and
seven more years to the writing itself. Published in two volumes in 1828, An American Dictionary of the English
Language has become the recognized authority for usage in the United States. Webster’s purpose in writing it was to
demonstrate that the American language was developing distinct meanings, pronounciations, and spellings from
those of British English. He is responsible for advancing simplified spelling forms: develop instead of the British
form develope; theater and center instead of theatre and centre; color and honor instead of colour and honour.
In 1840 Webster brought out a second edition of his dictionary, which included 70.000 entries instead of the
original 38.000. This edition has served as the basis for the many revisions that have been produced under the
Webster name.

68. Why did Webster write A Grammatical Institutes of the English Language?
A. He wanted to supplement his income.
B. There were no books available after the Revolutionary War.
C. He felt that British books were not appropriate for American children.
D. The children did not know how to spell.
69. From which publication did Webster earn a lifetime income?
A. Compendious Dictionary of the English Language
