【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost everything.
When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say. “It's cool.” You May think, “He's so cool,” when you see your favorite football player.
We all maximize(擴(kuò)大)the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words, such as “new” or “surprising”. Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her student to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. On the student's paper was just the one sentence, “It's so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏)of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信度).Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.
(1)We know that the word “cool” has had ________.
A.only one meaning
B.no meaning
C.many different meanings
D.the same meaning
(2)In the passage, the word “express” means “_______”.
A.see
B.show
C.know
D.feel
(3)If you are ________ something, you may say, “It's cool.”

B.angry about
C.worried about
D.unhappy with
(4)The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.
A.pleased with

(5)In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word “cool”___________.
A.can be used instead of many words

C.can make your life colorful
D.may not be as cool as it seems

【答案】
(1)C
(2)B
(3)A
(4)C
(5)D
【解析】

(1)C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Cool”is a word with many meanings.可知cool可知表達(dá)多種含義,所以選C。

(2)B 詞義猜測題。See看見;show展示,顯現(xiàn);know知道;feel感覺。根據(jù)express (表達(dá))漢語提示,可知該選B。

(3)A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“Cool”can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street,maybe you will say,“It's cool.的描述,可知該選A。

(4)C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第四段的描述可以看出作者對這個(gè)單詞用法的擔(dān)心,所以選C。

(5)D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性)及下文描述,可知cool這個(gè)單詞在表示含義的時(shí)候,具有一定的模糊性,所以選D,可能不像它看起來那么好。

Hi! My name is Robin. I live in a town in the east of Shanghai. Over the last twenty years, great changes have taken place here.

In the past, my hometown was only a small village. There were no tall buildings. But now more and more tall buildings appear and the roads get wider. My father used to work in a small post office. We kept in touch with each other mainly by sending letters. Now we can use telephones, mobile phones, the Internet to contact each other. The world becomes smaller and smaller.

We can find our life more comfortable. We live in big flats. We enjoy milk, vegetables, fruit and meat for meals. We can also enjoy wonderful films and listen to music with MP5 players or mobile phones. In the past, we couldn’t enjoy life like this.

On the other hand, pollution has become a serious problem in our daily life. In the past, there were not many factories. So the water was clean and the air was fresh. However, the water and the air aren’t clean any more, because too many factories have polluted them. The government has taken action to reduce the pollution. Now things have been better.

I am sure my hometown will be more and more beautiful.

One pleasant New-year morning, Edward's father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. He had wishes for a long time to buy some new books.
As he ran down the street to the bookstore, he saw a poor German family, the father, mother and three children walking in the cold wind.
"I wish you a happy New Year." said Edward, as he was happily passing on. The man shook his head, for he could not understand or speak English. But he pointed to his mouth, and to the children, as if to say," These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time."
