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.In Chinese tu means uncouth(粗鲁的) and hao means rich.It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw their weight around in Chinas countryside.The word became more popular in September with the launch of Apples new gold-colored iPhone,which is loved by Chinas rich people.The color became known as “tuhao gold”.The word is now also used by the online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it.Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese wordsdama and hukouwhich may also make it into the dictionary.People can have an intuitive(直觉的) grasp of the meanings if they see pinyin,Kleeman said,adding that people avoid using an English word to keep the original meaning.“We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary,”she said.Some of them are:guanxi,which means “connection”;taikonaut,a mix of taikong,meaning outer space,and astronaut.The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive.The online version is also renewed

to the world of multitaskinga place where the measure of a person is how many jobs they can perform at the same time.In fact,if experts are to be believed,multitasking is a disastrous idea.One of the opponents of multitasking is Dr. Clifford Nass,a professor at Stanford University.“People who multitask frequently are less able to pay attention;theyre worse at managing their memory,”he said.In his opinion,the loss that we get with multitasking is harmless in some situations,for example,part of doing business in the digital world;but you cant do serious work like writing,thinking or solving an important problem this way.You do worse even as you think youre doing better.All the time the research points to a simple fact:the brain cannot cope.When you stop midway through composing a report to check an email,you force your brain to stop and regroup.It is like pressing the pause button during a movie,meaning the film takes longer to watch.And as for Dr. Nass,the problems extend beyond the brain.Young people who frequently multitask are not as socially and emotionally healthy as those who dont.They just feel more emotionally satisfied and the feeling is so good and they are bound to desire it again.Todd Oppenheimer,a writer said,“Weve become a very short-term society and dont reward people for taking a lot of time on something.”He fears we may end up losing the next generation of great thinkers.“Its really unfortunate because the long-term challenges of our worldenvironmental issues,financial issuesrequire people to think wisely about the long-term consequences of what they do.And its no coincidence that the kind of people who do think long-term dont multitask.”1.According to Dr. Nass,multitasking .A.makes the performance emotionally affected onlyB.contributes to memorizing various thingsC.may result in losing the next generation of great thinkersD.can be performed using digital tools2.From the passage,we can tell .A.the loss that we get with multitasking is harmlessB.we mistakenly believe that were doing better by switching between tasksC.multitasking does harm to us in every areaD.for every task you add to your multitasking,you can finish your goal more quickly3.Which of the following is a multitasking addict?A.You turn your cellphone to silence when youre out to dine with friends.B.You watch from start to finish without distraction when playing a DVD.C.You have your office desk covered with paperwork from various unfinished projects.D.You feel that when you try to do too much at once,the result always suffers.4.The author mainly wants to tell us .A.the less you switch,the better you doB.it is more efficient to do things all in a mixed wayC.it takes longer for us to become a great thinkerD.we shouldnt be lazy if we want to accomplish many tasksC(2014福州毕业班质检)A carefree summer vacation can be yours with these easy tips.1.Fly into Alternate AirportsMost major destinations are served by more than one airport.Flying into a less popular one can result in cheaper tickets.Another added perk of quieter airports?Shorter check-in and security lines,and less waiting around.2.Use Public Transportation for City Travel to Save Time and MoneyWhen possible,take public transportation from the airport to your hotel.For example,the London-Heathrow express train takes just 15 minutes to get from airport to city and costs under 20 pounds.By contrast,“A taxi costs about 70 pounds and takes 40 minutes,”reports DiScala.3.Eat Smart,Explore.and SaveLook for ways to take your order in pricey restaurants and you can avoid “Are we about to run out of money?”“Dont order an appetizer.Dont drink a lot of booze,”says DiScala.Also,cover more ground by spreading out your snack places.“Have dessert at a caf or ice cream stand,instead of at the dinner restaurant,”suggests DiScala.Youll see more of the city and decisions about where to go for dinner will be less worrying.4.Hit the MarketMuch like reading the local newspaper,visiting a market gives context to a foreign country.Even the smallest villages tend to have a weekly open-air market(often on Saturday mornings),while in larger towns and cities,expect additional market days,as well as big supermarkets.Markets also sell amazing,wallet-friendly souvenirs.Think about sea salt,local spices or sauces,and regional oils and vinegar.Eatable gifts are almost always appreciated,saving you the stress of finding the “perfect” gift for each person on your list.1.The passage aims to tell the readers how to .A.take a plane without waiting for longB.spend your holidays abroad

B.Strict standard.C.Common scene.D.Extra trouble.3.Which of the following will best help you save time and money?A.Choosing a bigger airport.B.Visiting local markets.C.Having dinner at the hotel.D.Taking an express train.4.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Having coffee at a caf will cost more money.B.Souvenirs bought at local markets are expensive.C.You will run out of your money if you eat out.D.Markets help you understand your tourist destination.#A1.B正误判断题。从第一段中的 “The word caught the attention of the dictionarys editing team after BBCs recent program on influential Chinese words.” 可知,B项正确。2.A语意推断题。根据第二段的第一句及第二句中的 “rich people” 和 “in Chinas countryside ” 判断,这里说的是有钱人在农村指手画脚,发号施令,因此选A项。3.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的 “The word became more popular in September with the launch of Apples new gold-colored iPhone” 可知,选D项。4.A主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了中国的流行语 “土豪” 可能会被牛津英语词典收录,因此选A项。B【语篇导读】这是一篇科普文。研究人员发现,同时做很多事情的人做事不专一,不仅会导致事倍功半,而且还会影响人们的社交与情感健康。1.D细节理解题。关于同时做很多事,第二段说在有些情况下,比如在数码领域里做生意(doing business in the digital world)是无害的,因此选D项。文章说同时做很多事会影响我们在人际交往和情感方面的健康(A项错),会使我们记性更差(B项错),一位叫Todd的作家说这样可能会使我们失去一位未来一代伟大的思想家(C项错)。2.B推理判断题。由第一段第二句可知,这个想法实际上害人不浅,因此B项正确;从第二段可知A、C两项错误,因为multitasking有时是无害的,有时则会妨碍我们;第二段最后一句通过打比方的方式告诉我们,这样会使事情做得更慢(D项错)。3.C推理判断题。从本题四个选项的陈述看,A、B、D三项都是专心做一件事,C项说办公桌上放着各种没有完工的项目的文件,这里的various unfinished projects属于multitasking。故选C项。4.A主旨大意题。全文通过斯坦福大学一位教授的话告诉我们,同时做很多事不仅不能提高工作效率,反而对我们的健康不利,因此A项“角色转换越少,做得就越好”是本文的主题。C【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文,介绍了一些经济实惠的出国旅游技巧。1.B主旨大意题。文章第一段指出“有了这些简单的技巧,你就可以享受无忧无虑的暑假”,接下来文章给出了一些外出旅游时的经济实惠的方法,故B项正确。2.A词义猜测题。根据画线词的前一句“Flying into a less popular one can result in cheaper tickets.”可知,到备用机场乘坐飞机,票价会更便宜,这显然是一个益处;再根据后一句“Shorter check-in and security lines,and less waiting around.”可知,这也是一个益处,故可推断A项正确。3.D细节理解题。根据第二条建议“Use Public Transportation for City Travel to Save Time and Money”可知,使用公共交通工具去城市旅游可以节约时间和金钱,紧接着以伦敦希斯罗机场的特快列车为例,故D项正确。4.D推理判断题。根据第四条建议中的第一句“Much like reading the local newspaper,visiting a market gives context to a foreign country.”可知,就好像阅读当地的报纸一样,去市场有助于你了解这个地方,故D项正确。4
