74. First read the article; then choose the correct answer.
What is in a tut? That short, clicking sound we make with our tongue to express disapproval, disappointment, disdain, or sympathy and understanding. The term tut is considered an onomatopoeic word, imitating the sound it represents. It is a universal expression that transcends language barriers. From culture to culture, the sound may slightly vary, but the underlying meaning remains the same. We tut when we don't agree; we tut when something or someone irritates us. We tut to ourselves, and we tut at people. In short, we all understand the intended meaning of that tut when it is directed at us. All of which makes it an invaluable tool for effective communication.

64. First read the article; then choose the correct answer.
The abbreviation OK is one of the most common words in the English language. However, as abbreviations go, it is relatively new, just 150 years old, and can be traced back to 19th-century Boston. It apparently started as an editorial joke that went viral, as we say today. In the mid-19th century, editorial abbreviations were extremely popular, but nothing was as successful as OK. Initially standing for "011 Korrect", an intentional misspelling of "all correct", it was intended to be a satirical comment about grammar. However, other research suggests that the word has a much earlier origin. Perhaps we will never know for sure, so we'll have to be OK with not knowing its true beginnings!
According to the article:

During the 19th century editorials were very popular in Boston.
The abbreviation originated from a mistake in spelling.
OK was probably invented in the 19th Century as a joke about grammar.
