Tracing missing persons can take much patient
detective work. But a special kind of "private eye"
can trace the missing ancestors of whole peoples by 【1】______
studying the clues buried by words.
These philologists, such as the language detectives【2】______
are called, have traced the word trail back
from peoples in Europe, India, South Africa, the
Americas, and the Pacific islands in a tiny name- 【3】______
less, and forgotten tribe that roamed central Eurasia
5,000 to 6,000 years ago, before the dawn
of writing history. 【4】______
Since a long time scholars puzzled over the 【5】______
striking difference of words in different languages.【6】______
In Dutch, vader; in Latin, pater; in old Irish,
athir; in Persian, pidar; in the Sanskrit of
distant India, pitr. These words all sounded
likely and meant the same thing--"father". 【7】______
Where did it happen that widely separated 【8】______
peoples used such close related sound symbols. 【9】______
The problem baffled linguists for years. The more
so because "father" was but one of a host of such
coincidences. Towards the end of the 18 century it 【10】______
dawned on scholars that perhaps all these words
stemmed from some common languages. [br] 【M3】

答案
将and改为to。
解析
以便和前文的from构成搭配“from…to…”,表示“从……到……”,例如:A lady’s imagination is very rapid;it jumps from admiration to love,from love to matrimony in a moment.女士想像的速度极快,从爱慕到恋爱,从恋爱到结婚,这一切在她的想像中都发生在瞬间。And so from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe,and then from hour to hour,we rot and rot;and thereby hangs a tale.就这样,随着时间的推移,我们不断成熟,随着时间的推移,我们变得老朽,于是就有了一段故事。
