One day a teacher was giving her young students a lesson on how the government works. She was trying to explain the principle(原理) of income tax(所得税).“You see,” she began, speaking slowly and carefully, “Each person who works must pay part of his or her salary( 薪水) to the government. If you make a high salary, your taxes are high. If you don’t make much money, your taxes are low.”“Is that clear?” she asked. “Does everyone understand the meaning of income tax?”.

Every year, a handful of new words enter the world’s collective vocabulary, but only one has the honor of being named Oxford Dictionaries’ Word of the Year. And this year’s top honor goes to “selfie”.
The frequency of the word selfie used in the English language has increased by 17,000 per cent since this time last year. This figure is calculated by Oxford Dictionaries using a research program which collects around 150 million English words currently in use from around the web every month. To qualify, a word need not have been invented within the past 12 months but it does need to stand out or become notable at that time.
Selfie is defined by Oxford Dictionaries as: “A photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically one taken with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website.” Oxford Dictionaries said the earliest known usage is an Australian online forum post in 2002. A man posted a picture of injuries to his face when he tripped over some steps. He apologized for the fact that the picture was out of focus, saying that it was not because he was drunk but because it was a selfie.
Judy Pearsall, editorial director for Oxford Dictionaries, said: “Using the Oxford Dictionaries language research program, we can see a phenomenal upward trend in the use of selfie in 2013, and this helped to win its selection as Word of the Year.” She also added: “Social media sites helped to popularize the term, with selfie appearing on the photo-sharing website Flicker as early as 2004, but usage wasn’t widespread until around 2012, when selfie was being used commonly in mainstream media sources.”
Selfies have taken the world by storm. Everyone from the first family to ordinary people has taken the time to pose for a selfie. Celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Jennifer Lawrence, and Jennifer Aniston have all showed their new haircuts with selfies this year. Selfie was added to the Oxford Dictionaries online in August, but not yet in the Oxford English.
1.What does this passage mainly talk about?
A. The definition of the word “Selfie”.
B. The widespread usage of the word “Selfie” in 2012.
C. “Selfie” has been chosen as the Word of the Year of 2013.
D. “Selfie” began to be used in the Oxford English.
2.What can we learn from the passage about the word Selfie?
A. Social media sites helped to popularize the word Selfie.
B. The frequency of the word “selfie” has increased to 17,000 % since 2004.
C. Celebrities and the first family have all showed their new haircuts with selfies.
D. The earliest known usage of “selfie” was a man who was drunk.
3.The word “selfie” was chosen the Word of the Year by _____________.
A. A social media website.
B. The photo-sharing website Flicker.
C. A research program by Oxford Dictionaries.
D. People who take picture using a smart phone or webcam.
4.In which column of a newspaper can we find this article?

A British farmer has been searching for a group of fighter planes for 15 years. The planes were lost in Burma during World War II. David Cundall, 62, traveled to Burma a dozen times. He spent about US $207,000 in the hope of finding a British Spitfire(喷火式战斗机)buried in the Southeast Asian country. Finally, his hard work paid off.
Cundall started his search after his friend heard from a group of U.S. war veterans(老兵)that they had buried Spitfires in the region. “We’ve done some pretty silly things in our time, but the silliest was burying Spitfires,” the veterans said.
Cundall began placing ads in magazines to try to find soldiers who might have been involved. After 15 years of searching, he finally managed to locate the missing airplanes. The planes had never been flown and were buried in their transport crates(条板箱). “We made a borehole(钻孔)and used a camera to look at the crates. They seemed to be in good condition.” Cundall told The Telegraph. The aircraft had arrived at a Royal Air Force base in Burma in August 1945. But, by that point in the war, the planes weren’t needed. “In 1945, Spitfires were ten a penny, and you could see them everywhere.” Said Cundall.
British Prime Minister, David Camerion, recently visited the country. As The Telegraph reports, Camerion’s help may mean that the Spitfires could soon be on their way back to the United Kingdom. Cundall hopes that with the help of investors, the planes can finally take to the skies.
“Spitfires are beautiful aeroplanes and should not be rotting away(腐烂)in a foreign land,” Cundall says. “They saved our neck in the Battle of Britain and they should be protected.”

B. The planes were not needed at that time during World War II.
C. It will be very difficult to take the planes back to the United Kingdom.
