閱讀下面的短文,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從各題所給的四個選項中選出最佳答案。并在答題卡上將該字母的編號涂黑。
“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 world has had many different meanings. “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.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favorite footballer. We all maximize (擴大) 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 students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one 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 (可信性). 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.
小題1:We know that the word “cool” has had ________.
A. only one meaning   B. no meanings C. many different meanings
小題2:In the passage, the word “express” means “____________.”
A. see    B. show    C. know    
小題3:If you are ________ something, you may say, “It’s cool.”
A. interested in    B. angry about    C. afraid of   
小題4:The writer takes an example to show he is _______ the way the word is used.
A. pleased with   B. strange to    C. worried about                  
小題5:In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word “cool” ______.
A. can be used instead of many words
B. usually means something interesting      
C. may not be as cool as it seems

小題1:C
小題2:B
小題3:A
小題4:C
小題5:C

試題分析:這篇短文主要介紹了“Cool”這個單詞有很多意思。它可用在對任一事情有興趣時所表達的情感。但是作者也擔憂人們使用它的時候也顯示了單詞的匱乏。
小題1:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段As the world has changed, the world has had many different meanings.可知我們知道cool這個單詞有許多不同的意思。故選C。
小題2:詞義題猜測。根據(jù)第一段Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. 它原來的意思用來表達有點冷的溫度。express,表達。A. see看見;B. show表明;C. know 知道。故選B。 
小題3:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.
“Cool”這個單詞可用在對任一事情有興趣時所表達的情感。be interested in對……感興趣。故選A。
小題4:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning.但是這個故事也顯示了單詞的匱乏,沒有“cool”這個單詞,一些人沒有其他單詞來描述同一件事情。由此可知作者通過舉例來說明他對這個單詞使用方式的擔心,故選C,為……擔心.
小題5:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一段描述可知作者暗示cool這個單詞不一定向它顯示的那么好。故選C。

Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and classmates. Parents and teachers should care more about this problem.”
Then Mr. Ma gave some examples. One patient, a middle school student from Xi’an, was doing  badly in his lessons.
