    1．Did 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 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，FYI，and OMG are initialisms，which can be said aloud letter by letter，like LOL，which now stands for Laugh Out Loud．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 decided the words are 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 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 600，000words．That adds up to more than 21，730pages!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it the longest dictionary in the world．The Oxford English Dictionary is known for recording words of all kinds-popular，outdated，and even foreign words used by English speakers throughout the language's long history．

    21．The text mainly tells us thatA．
    A．expressions like LOL and FYI have been added to the Oxford English Dictionary
    B．English words change their meaning as time goes by
    C．English language is becoming more and more difficult to learn
    D．the Oxford English Dictionary breaks the Guinness World Record
    22．Which of the following is NOT included in the facts that the Oxford English Dictionary has been updated？D
    A．Some online terms are added to it．
    B．A graphic symbol is first introduced into it．
    C．Some slang words are collected in it．
    D．Some old words are left out．
    23．What does the underlined word"initialisms"refer to？B
    A．Words having foreign origins．
    B．Words made from the first letters of several words in a phrase．
    C．Uncommon words frequently appearing on the Internet．
    D．Official words used in formal documents with capital letters．
    24．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'meaning at intervals    
    D．is the most respected dictionary in the world．

    分析 这是一篇文化类说明文．在交际领域中被广泛使用的一些首字母缩略词、俚语等最近被收入《牛津英语词典》．

    解答 21．A　主旨大意题．通读全文可知，一些便于表达和书写的首字母缩略词，如OMG，LOL，FYI被收入《牛津英语词典》．答案　A
    22．D　细节归纳题．短文第三段讲述一些网络缩略词LOL，FYI，OMG被收入词典；第四段讲述一个图形符号被收入词典；第五段讲述一些俚语被收入词典．而D项"一些旧词被删除"，在短文中没有提到．答案　D
    23．B   词义猜测题．根据短文中出现的"OMG（oh my god）；FYI（for your information）；LOL，which now stands for Laugh Out Loud"关键信息可知，initialisms指的是"一个短语中几个单词的首字母缩略词"．答案　B
    24．B   细节理解题．根据最后一段第三句"Guinness World Records calls it the longest dictionary in the world．"可知，《牛津英语词典》创造了一项吉尼斯世界记录．其他三项都不符合文章意思．故选B．

    点评 本文是一个社会文化类阅读理解，题目涉及多道细节理解题，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．

    6．After years of suffering headaches and poor digestion I spoke to a neurologist about my regular headaches and a nutritionist about my poor digestion，and they both told me I should be drinking up to three litres of water a day for my body to function at its best．I decided to conduct an experiment．What would happen if I drank the recommended amount every day for a month？
    The photograph of me taken the day I started this trial demonstrates perfectly-and rather frighteningly-what a lack of water does to a face．I am 42，but have to admit I look more like 52 in this picture，which is shocking．There are dark shadows under and around my eyes，which make me look exhausted，a lot of wrinkles and strange red blotches（疹斑），and my skin lacks any lustre（光泽）．It looks dead．These symptoms are all evidence of poor hydration，apparently．Every system and function in our body depends on water．
    So I decided to see how I would look and feel if I drank three litres of water every day for 28days．The results were astonishing．Three litres of water sounds like an awful lot．I visited my doctor to be sure there could be no adverse health implications to increasing my water intake．He was very encouraging．I'm enjoying lots of cups of tea．
    After four weeks，the results were astonishing．The dark rings and wrinkles under my eyes have disappeared．I really can't believe the difference in my face．I look like a different woman．My skin is almost as dewy as it was when I was a child．My flexibility has also greatly improved．I feel more energetic，leaner and healthier，and my friends tell me I look ten years younger．

    25．What was the author advised to do every day？A
    A．To drink more water．
    B．To do more exercise．
    C．To eat more fruits and vegetables．
    D．To have enough sleep．
    26．All the symptoms on the author's face implied thatA．
    A．her body was short of water
    B．she was too busy to care about herself
    C．her face made others frightened
    D．she was dying because of the illness
    27．In order to make sure that increasing her water intake didn't do bad for her health，the authorD．
    A．did another experiment
    B．asked for advice from her friends
    C．read books for evidences
    D．visited her doctor
    28．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about？D
    A．The symptoms of lacking water．
    B．The advice to the readers．
    C．The advantages of drinking tea．
    D．The result of the experiment．
