“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 (扩大) 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.
小题1:We know that the word “cool” has had ________.
A. only one meaning   B. no meanings C. many different meanings
小题2:In the passage, the word “express” means “____________.”
A. see    B. show    C. know    
小题3:If you are ________ something, you may say, “It’s cool.”
A. interested in    B. angry about    C. afraid of   
小题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                  
小题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

小题1:C
小题2:B
小题3:A
小题4:C
小题5:C

试题分析:这篇短文主要介绍了“Cool”这个单词有很多意思。它可用在对任一事情有兴趣时所表达的情感。但是作者也担忧人们使用它的时候也显示了单词的匮乏。
小题1:细节理解题。根据第一段As the world has changed, the world has had many different meanings.可知我们知道cool这个单词有许多不同的意思。故选C。
小题2:词义题猜测。根据第一段Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. 它原来的意思用来表达有点冷的温度。express,表达。A. see看见;B. show表明;C. know 知道。故选B。 
小题3:细节理解题。根据第一段“Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.
“Cool”这个单词可用在对任一事情有兴趣时所表达的情感。be interested in对……感兴趣。故选A。
小题4:细节理解题。根据第三段But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning.但是这个故事也显示了单词的匮乏,没有“cool”这个单词,一些人没有其他单词来描述同一件事情。由此可知作者通过举例来说明他对这个单词使用方式的担心,故选C,为……担心.
小题5:细节理解题。根据短文最后一段描述可知作者暗示cool这个单词不一定向它显示的那么好。故选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.”
