    The Oxford English Dictionary (OED, 牛津英语词典) is thinking of adding the Chinese word tuhao (土豪) to its 2014 edition (版本).
    The word has become popular in China during the past few months to describe newly rich people who spend money in extravagant（铺张的，浪费的）ways. Tuhao has caught on in Western countries, too, to describe similar people in their countries.
    The adoption (采用) of the word by foreign countries is an example of China’s spreading influence in the world not just economically, but also socially and culturally. People are paying attention to what is happening in China and are picking up some Chinese words in the process, especially those words that express unique (独特的) Chinese ideas that cannot be easily translated (翻译) into English.
    The OED is also thinking of adding hukou (户口) and dama (大妈) to the already 120 Chinese words in its dictionary. Hukou refers to (指的是) China’s system of residency permits (户籍系统) and dama refers to middle-aged Chinese women whose gold buying habits influence the global gold markets. The news that the OED was adding these words has met with some criticism (批评). Some people say the words embarrass (使人尴尬) China, but others insist that in a globalized (全球化的) society it’s natural for words to spread and be adopted elsewhere. In fact, a word like tuhao expresses the humor of China. It’s easy to pronounce (发音) and very accurate (精准的) at poking fun at (嘲弄) rich people who have more money than taste.
    小题1:_____ may be adopted in the Oxford English Dictionary in 2014 according to the passage.
    A．TuhaoB．HukouC．DamaD．All above
    小题2:_____can be called “tuhao” according to the passage.
    A．All newly rich people
    B．People who own their money easily
    C．People who love money very much
    D．Newly rich people who spend money in an extravagant way
    小题3:The underlined word “caught on” (in Paragraph 2) most probably  means________.
    A．流行B．继续C．接受D．蔓延
    小题4:The last paragraph mainly talks about __________________.
    A．humor of Chinese style
    B．criticism on the adoption of Chinese words into OED
    C．support on the adoption of Chinese words into OED
    D．different opinions on the adoption of Chinese words into OED

    小题1:D
    小题2:D
    小题3:A
    小题4:D

    试题分析：这篇短文主要讲述中国当今一些流行词汇正在考虑被纳入2014牛津词典当中。比如土豪、户口、大妈这样的词，但是关于这些词意还有一些争议。
    小题1:细节理解题。根据文章第一段The Oxford English Dictionary (OED, 牛津英语词典) is thinking of adding the Chinese word tuhao (土豪) to its 2014 edition (版本).和第四段第一行The OED is also thinking of adding hukou (户口) and dama (大妈) to the already 120 Chinese words in its dictionary.可知，土豪、户口和大妈这三个词都可能会被纳入2014版牛津词典。故选D。
    小题2:细节理解题。根据第二段第一行The word has become popular in China during the past few months to describe newly rich people who spend money in extravagant（铺张的，浪费的）ways.可知，土豪是形容那些暴富的人花钱铺张浪费。故选D。
    小题3:词义猜测题。根据Tuhao has caught on in Western countries, too, to describe similar people in their countries.这一句中的too，可知是承接上一句话。上句说：土豪一词在中国很流行。故选A。
    小题4:段落大意题。最后一段主要讲述不同人对于“户口”和“大妈”这两个词的不同观点。故选D。

    Teachers say the digital age has had a good and a not-so-good influence on the American teenagers. More than 2,000 high school teachers took an online survey.
    75 percent of the teachers said the Internet and digital search tools have had a “mostly good” use for their students' research habits and skills, But 87 percent agreed that these technologies "make the students not have enough attention.” And 64 percent said the technologies “do little to help them in courses.”
    Judy Buchanan is a director of the National Writing Project. Ms. Buchanan says digital research tools are helping students learn more, and learn faster. Teachers really like these tools, because they are ways to make some of learning exciting. Young people enjoy using these tools. And the goal is to help them become creative students of meaningful work, and not just that kind of copyist.
    But one problem the survey found is that many students don't have a good understanding of how to use the digital knowledge well. In other words, they trust(信任) too much of the information. Judy Buchanan says these students have not developed the skills they need to tell whether the online information is good or bad.
    Another problem the survey found is something that might not seem like a problem, at all, being-able to quickly find information online. Teachers say the ability of their students to work hard to find answers is becoming weaker. They say students depend too much on search engines (引擎) and do not make enough use, of printed books or research, librarians.
    Besides, many teachers are also worried about the problem that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others, instead of using their own abilities.
    小题1:      of the teachers agreed technologies may stop students from having enough attention.
    A．50%B．64%C．75%D．87%
    小题2: How many problems are mentioned (提及) in the passage'?
    A．OneB．Two.C．Three.D．Four.
    小题3:Teachers like the digital search tools because they can        .
    A．make some of learning exciting
    B．help students find answers easily
    C．tell whether the information is good or not
    D．help students copy the work done by others
    小题4:What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage?
    A．Digital search tools have quite a lot of advantages.
    B．Students don't know how to use the digital search tools.
    C．Many teachers are worried about the students' abilities.
    D．Students should learn how to use the digital tools in a right way.

    Much has been said and written about heroes now, mainly because many people think we have too few of them. There are many different kinds of heroes, but they usually seem to have two things. First, heroes show their great power by actions. Second, heroes can be tested by the time. Because of these good points, we need to choose our heroes carefully.

    Olympic winner Jackie Joyner-Kersee tells young people to work hard. She hopes that if someone tries to copy her, it will be because she has got success by working hard. She says that a hero should affect another person’s life.
    Poet Maya Angelou believes that a hero encourages people to treat others well. A hero should show politeness, courage, patience, and strength all the time. A hero should encourage others to follow him with actions, even though only in small ways.
    Author Daniel Boorstin suggests that, “Celebrities are people who appear on newspapers, but heroes are people who make history.” If a person is truly a hero, he or she will not be soon forgotten.
    We all need heroes. We need to be able to respect (尊重) people around us. Many times , the greatest heroes are the people we can see every day — our relatives, friends, and neighbours — who will never give up when facing difficulty. The parent who supports our family, the teacher who will make more money at another job but chooses to help students — all these people can be considered as heroes. A hero sets a good example, an example that encourages others to follow.
    小题1:Joyner-Kersee hopes that young people ___________.
    A．will work hardB．will become heroes
    C．will follow herD．will achieve her goal
    小题2:The underlined word “celebrities” in Paragraph 4 means ___________.
    A．志愿者B．记者C．政客D．名人
    小题3:From the passage we know that ___________.
    A．there are fewer heroes than before
    B．many common people set examples to us
    C．heroes should be polite, patient and famous
    D．heroes have to do some great things
    小题4:The best title for this passage is ___________.
    A．What Heroes DoB．Who Are Heroes
    C．How Heroes LiveD．Where Heroes are

    请阅读一篇短文，根据所提供的信息，完成下面的表格。
    In the modern society, the traffic problem has become more and more serious, which has aroused(引起) wide public concern（关心）, especially in the rush hour , at some time or other, people would rather walk on the street than drive the car, and the line people waiting for the bus can be as long as 10 meters. Because a great number of office workers go to work and go off work at the same time, most private cars and buses are on the roads at the same time, which of course leads to traffic jams(交通堵塞).
    But how to solve it? As far as I’m concerned, for one thing, the government should build more roads to meet the needs of cars; for another, we should call for people to take a bus instead of driving their own cars. At times, we can also ride bikes to go to work or visit somewhere. Not only do we strengthen ourselves in this way, but also we protect the environment. In a word ,if all of us take actions to solve it, I believe there will not be a word named traffic jam .
