Now she wants to send her neighbor to prison for over seven years on the charges of psychological damage and noise pollution.In a country known for its noisiness, the case has raised eyebrows. Neigh

11、bors often complain about street noise in Spain, but people seeking prison time for someone practicing the piano is unheard of. At the trial, Sonia Bosom says she has been suffering noise pollution up to now due to the practice sessions of Laia Martin, who lives below her. Martin, 27, didnt admit th

12、at she played at home that often, saying she took regular classes in other towns and mostly practiced at home on the weekends.On the first day of the trial, the newspaper reported that Bosom told the court she now hated pianos so much that she couldnt even stand seeing them in a film.Bosom says year

13、s of hearing constant playing has caused her “psychological injury”.

Every one of us gets so used to punctuation marks that not many of us give them a second thought. Actually, the ancient Greeks wrote this way. The lack of punctuation marks probably

18、 didnt bother good readers, though. As they read, they just put pauses where they fit best. Also at this time, sentences switched directions. A sentence read from left to right. The next one read right to left, and then left to right again, etc. The ancient Romans sometimes punctuated like this: The

19、y put something that can separate words in a sentence. The word punctuation actually comes from this idea and the Latin word punctum, which means a dot.When the 5th century arrived, there were just two punctuation marks: spaces and points. The spaces separated words while the points showed pauses in

20、 reading. Then in the 13th century, a printer named Aldus Manutius tried to standardize punctuation. He always used a period for a complete stop at the end of a sentence. He used a slash (/) to indicate a short pause. Over time, that slash was shortened and curled, and it became the modern comma (逗号

21、).Since that time, other marks have enlarged the punctuation family. The exclamation mark (感叹号) comes from the Latin word io. It means “exclamation of joy.” The question mark originally started out as the Latin word questio, meaning question. Eventually, scholars put it at the end of a sentence to s

22、how a question.Punctuation even keeps changing nowadays. New marks are coming into existence, and old punctuation marks are used in new ways. Take for example the “interrobang”. This 1962 invention combines the question mark and exclamation mark for times when writers want both. For example, “She di

23、d what?” or “How much did you pay for that dress?” Obviously, the interrobang is not widely used or recognized yet, but its invention shows that English is not yet finished with its punctuation.24. From the first paragraph, we can know that _.A. good readers had trouble reading without punctuation m
