The word caught the attention of the dictionarys editing team after BBCs recent program on influential Chinese words. “If its influence continues, it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words,” said Julie Kleeman, project manager with the editing team. Kleeman told the Beijing Youth Daily that “tuhao” has some similarities with the English word “bling”, which refers to expensive, ostentatious (阔绰的) clothing or jewelry. Both the two words have existed for long but later on took a new meaning. In Chinese, “tu” means rude and “hao” means rich. It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in Chinas rural areas. In recent years, people in the ACG (anime, comic and game) circle borrowed the term to describe those who spend money in an unreasonable manner. The word gained acceptance in September with the launch (投放) of Apples new gold-colored iPhone, an item loved by Chinas nouveau riche (暴发户). The color became known as “tuhao gold”.The word is now often used by the online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it. Kleeman also mentioned another Chinese word “dama” which may also be taken in the dictionary. “Dama”, meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal in May when thousands of Chinese women were buying up record number of gold. They were the driving force in the global gold market between April and June when the gold prices had dropped. “People can have an intuitive (直觉的)grasp of the meanings if they see pinyin”, Kleeman said adding that people avoided using an English word to keep the original meaning. The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive. The online version is also renewed every three months.( ) 56. Why is the word “tuhao” likely to be taken in Oxford English Dictionary?A. Because it represents noble and richB. Because it has the same meaning with an English word.C. Because its influence becomes bigger and biggerD. Because it is popular in online game circle.( ) 57. Whats the similarity between “tuhhao” and “dama”?A. Both take new meanings.B. Both were created in British.C. Both will be uploaded in the next dictionary version.D. They have the same meaning.( ) 58. Whats the main idea of the passage?A, The popularity of the two words “tubao” and “dama”.B. The possibility to be taken in Oxford English Dictionary for “tuhao” and “dama”.C. The new meanings of the two words “tuhao” and “dama”D. The influence of Chinese in modern world.( ) 59. The passage most probably belongs to _. A. a social surveyB. an advertisement C. a news reportD. a publishing noticeB Some of my friends are making big decisions in their life: Which universities should they apply to? I also notice that many high school students in China are thinking of studying at universities abroad. Unluckily, from what Ive seen, the information given by some websites and other media about studying abroad is very limited and sometimes even wrong. There was once a Chinese girl who hoped that she could go to Columbia University in the US because she wanted to major in journalism. However, they have no journalism program at the undergraduate level! Whats more, in both Canada and the US, its not suggested that students throw themselves into journalism right after high school. School say that students should take in more knowledge about the world and writing before entering that field.The University of Waterloo, a Canadian university famous for its engineering program, is another example. The emphasis (重视)of engineering in this school may go beyond your expectations. According to our teachers, this university spent millions of dollars building a library just for engineering students. The schools computer science, mathematics and accounting are also great programs for students.But, to be honest, according to my friends who have visited this university, the campus and the food are not very nice. Maybe this is because the school stresses its academic( 学术)strengths too much, thereby paying little attention to personal comforts.Now you see, choosing a university is really not that easy. We need to do good research and consult as many people as possible before making a decision.( ) 60. For high school students its very important to _.A. choose a proper universityB. study at American universitiesC. learn the information about websites D. supply the information about studying abroad( ) 61. Who can major in journalism program in Columbia University? A. Chinese girls.B. Graduates. C. Undergraduates.D. High school students.( ) 62. From Paragraphs 3 and 4 we can learn in the University of Waterloo _.A. engineering program is as famous as computer science B. engineering students are the most intelligentC. the campus is very small and dirty D. the library for engineering students is very good( ) 63. Whats the best title for the passage?A. Choosing a university is not easy.B. How to study at universities abroad.C. A Chinese girl and Columbia University.D. Academic strengths of the University of Waterloo.C If youd like to go sightseeing, the following World Heritage Sites may be your best choices.Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area The Jiuzhaigou Valley, which lies in the northern part of Sichuan Province, reaches a height of more than 4,800 meters, with a series of different forest ecosystems (生态系统).
