An average child of 5 years old uses only 1,500 of the 150,000 "dictionary" words that a modern 
language contains. But this small treasury is used very intensively, by him during the years of 
learning, at the rate of about 1,000 words an hour, or from 7,000 to 15,000 words each day for an 
active child. School quickly increases his vocabulary, but leaves him with less opportunity for using 
it. At 10 years old, his treasury amounts to 7,000 words, of which about 30% are used actively -the 
remainder is seldom or never used and in an hour he will use about 700 words. By the time he enters 
university, his word inventory will have grown to 20.000, and on graduation to 
60.000, but of these only 10% -20%will be in active use. 
142 -According to the passage, in general, a 5 -year old -child ----- . 
A) has an enormous, vocabulary for his age 
B) can learn 1.000 words in an hour
