19.Do you know that the first documented use of OMG (oh my god) was in 1917,or that LOL was once a common term meaning little old ladies in 1960?That's what the world learned when OMG,LOL and FYI (for your information) were added to the Oxford English Dictionary last week.This dictionary is considered by many people to be the reference book that defines the English language.
    Words added to the Oxford English Dictionary are truly considered new members of the language.People invent new words all the time,but only a few become popular enough to get defined in dictionaries.
Typed online or in text messages,LOL,OMG and FYI are initialisms(首字母缩略词),which can be said aloud letter by letter.Faster to type than the full phrases,initialisms like these have been used online since the 1990s.But these three online terms are now spoken outside the Internet too,making them different from other online lingo (行话).Dictionary editors thought that the words were used so commonly that they had to be defined this year.
    Another important addition to the dictionary this year was,as in"I   NY".This
is the first graphic (图形的) symbol ever defined in the Oxford English Dictionary.The editors added   as a verb under the definition of"heart",meaning"to love".
Some slang words-informal language used more commonly in speech than in writing-were also added,like wassup,a shortened way to say"What's up?"Even the words that have been in use for many years,like biker and happy camper,were finally added to the dictionary.
The Oxford English Dictionary now defines more than 600,000 words.That adds up to more than 21,730 pages!Guinness World Records calls it the longest dictionary in the world.The Oxford English Dictionary is known for recording words of all kinds-popular,outdated,and even foreign words used by English speakers throughout the language's long history.
68.The passage is mainly about the fact thatA
A.expressions like LOL and FYI have been added to the Oxford English Dictionary
B.many English words change their meanings with the time passing by
C.the English language is becoming more and more difficult to learn
D.the Oxford English Dictionary breaks Guinness World Records

A.Some online terms are added to it.
B.Graphic symbol is first introduced into it.
C.Some slang words are collected in it.
D.Some outdated words are left out by it.
70.Before any new word is added to the update of the Oxford English Dictionary,itC
A.must be spread widely on the Internet
B.must be used commonly by the editors
C.must be used widely in either spoken or written language
D.must be shortened with large letters
71.It can be inferred that the Oxford English DictionaryB
A.includes all words from all languages
B.gets one of the Guinness World Records
C.changes some words'meanings at times
D.is the most respected dictionary in the world.

20.One day while shopping in a small town in southern California,it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk.He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase.I bought nothing,and marched angrily out of the store.
On the outside was a dark-skinned young man in his early twenties.His expressive brown eyes met and held mine,and in the next instant a beautiful,bright smile covered his face.I gave in immediately.The power of that broad smile dissolved all bitterness within me,and I felt the muscles in my own face happily responding.
"Beautiful day,isn't it?"I remarked,passing.Then I turned back."I really owe you a debt of thanks,"I said softly.

"Yes,"my reply was enthusiastic and sincere,"tell him I said,‘Thank you!'"
"Thank you?"The woman seemed slightly puzzled.
I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave."Just tell him that,"I insisted."He'll understand.I am sure!"
Oh,what a smile can do!Although I have never seen that young man again,I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning.From that day on,I became smile-conscious,and I practice the art diligently anywhere and everywhere,with everybody.

17.Men have always believed that they are smarter than women.Now,a study has found that while this is certainly true,men also have to deal with the fact that they are also more stupid than the fairer sex.
In the study,scientists measured the IQ of 2500brothers and sisters and they found an uneven number of men not only in the top two percent,but also in the bottom two percent.
The study's participants were tested on science,maths,English and mechanical abilities.
Though there were twice as many men as women in the smartest group,there were also twice as many men among the bottom.
The aggregate(总数)scores of men and women were similar.
One of the study's authors,psychology professor Timothy Bates,said that the phenomenon may be because men have always been expected to be high achievers and women have been restricted to spend more time taking care of their homes.
"The female developmental program may be tilted more towards ensuring survival and the safety of the middle ground.,"the Daily Mail quoted Professor Bates,of Edinburgh University,as saying.
The research tallies with past results that men were more likely than women to receive first class University degrees or thirds and women secured the seconds.
It has been said that men are more ready to take risk when it comes to academics.Women have always found to be steadier in their learning.
A past study has shown that women are securing more firsts and seconds,while men are continuing to receive more thirds.
The argument for the change is that the increase of coursework at the cost of exams favors women's steady approach.

61.The purpose of the passage is to tell us thatC.
A.man are smarter then women
B.man are more stupid the women
C.a new fact about the IQ of men and women has been found
D.men are more likely to receive first class university degrees
62.According to Timothy Bates,less women are in the smartest group becauseB.
A.they are born stupid
B.they have to spend more time to tale care of their homes than men
C.they don't like to take risk
D.they are not expected to be high achievers
63.The underlined word tallies with in the eighth paragraph meansA.
A.agree with      B.deal with     C.go against     D.go with
64.It can be inferred from the passage thatD.
A.Women are steadier in their learning.
B.men are more ready to take risk in everything
C.women are securing more firsts and seconds
D.women are doing much better in academy
65.Which of the following questions has NOT been discussed in the passage?D.
A.Why are men smarter than women?
B.Why are men more stupid than women?
C.How does the result go along with the past research?
D.How can we help the men in the bottom?

Her mother Ruby turned round and,seeing Ammie horribly burnt,called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital.Twenty percent of Ammie's body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree.There,using tissue taken from unburned areas of Ammie's body,doctors performed complex skin transplants to close her wounds and control her injuries,an operation that took about six hours.Over the next 16 years,Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.

1.When I walk through the streets,I pass strange rooms where people are doing strange things.Some are biking madly.Others are holding metal bars to keep them from dropping down.Still others are jumping around while someone is shouting at them.It looks like something out of Dante's Inferno (但丁《神曲》中的《地狱篇》).But what is the most amazing is that people pay for these sufferings!
The strange rooms are gyms.It is reported that some 41 million Americans are gym members.12% of the memberships are born in January,as they are determined to knock off the holiday fat.Maybe it is good to exercise in the gym.However,should they know they can keep in good shape,spending little money,would they still agree with its necessity?
At the age of 23,I joined a gym.I lifted weights twice a week in Muscle's Gym.I paid as little as 200 per year.You can't find such gyms in every city any more.Too often,the gym is fancy (花哨的) with lots of equipment.If you ask how much it costs to join it,the person at the front desk often won't tell you straight.Instead,he'll let you meet with a fitness consultant (健身顾问),who will provide you with a great number of reasons and suggestions,such as losing weight and getting healthier,just in order to put pressure on you to spend much money joining the gym and becoming a member there.
Working out with the help of equipment at home has problems,too.In the early 2000s,I bought a spinning bike (动感单车) at a cost of 700 for home use.I tried a few times only to find that it brought me a neck problem.
Now I'm back to my old way.I do Yoga (瑜伽) every morning and evening.Total cost:$60 for an exercise mat (垫子).I'm enjoying fitness.

C.provide us with an example of gyms          
D.compare it with the gyms of today
64.The author will possibly agree thatC.
A.working out in gyms will bring a lot of sufferings
B.to be a fitness consultant can bring in a lot of money
C.taking up Yoga at home is a good way to keep healthy
