EXERCISE J

Reread the discussion of _good_ and _things_ in Many-sided

Words. Then for each of the words listed below collect or compose twenty

or more sentences in which the word is used. As largely as possible, take

them from actual experience. In doing this you must listen to the use of

the word in everyday talk. After you have made your list of sentences as

varied and extensive as you can, try to substitute synonyms that will

express the idea more accurately. Note whether a knowledge of the

attendant circumstances is necessary to an understanding of the original

word, to an understanding of the word substituted for it.
