The Northem States had ended slavery. Yet, most Northerners were not strongly against slavery. They did not mind slavery continued（继续）in the South.

　　Some English words are made up of（由…组成）the same part and have different beginnings and different endings, such as import, export, report and transport. All these words, you can see, have the same root "port", which comes from the Latin word meaning "to carry or to move from one place to another". And according to the bit at the beginning-which we call the prefix（前缀）the meaning changes: "import" means "to carry in" "to bring into a country"; in "export", "ex" means "out of", so this word means "to carry out of a country"; "re" means "back", so the word "report" means "to tell somebody, to bring back information to somebody"; in "transport", "trans" means "across" and it means "to carry across from one place to another."

　　Let's look at the following words: supporter, reporter, importer and exporter. You can see that in this case these words are nouns which are made up of the verbs plus a suffix（后缀）, thus meaning a person who completes the verb. So a supporter means somebody who supports. A reporter is somebody who reports. And an importer is somebody who imports and an exporter is somebody who exports, and so on.

　　66．The word "_______" means "进口" in Chinese.

　　A．export 　　B．import 　　C．Report　　 D．transport

　　67．"Some English words are made up of the same part …" In the sentence "part" means ___________.

　　A．Beginning　　 B．ending 　　C．Root　　 D．meaning

　　A．the meaning of a Latin word　　　　　B．a different meaning

　　C．the meanings of "in" or "out of" 　　D．a lot of meanings

　　69．Sometimes we can get a noun __________.

　　A．just by adding "er" to verbs　　　B．by changing a prefix

　　C．only by adding "er" to a root 　　D．by adding "trans" to a verb
