The Oxford English Dictionary (OED,牛津英语词典) is thinking of adding the Chinese word tuhao（土豪） to its 2014 edition（版本）.
The word has become popular in China during the past few months to describe newly rich people who spend money in extravagant(铺张的,浪费的) ways. Tuhao has caught on in Western countries, too, to describe similar people in their countries.
The adoption（采用） of the word by foreign countries is an example of China's spreading influence in the world not just economically, but also socially and culturally. People are paying attention to what is happening in China and are picking up some Chinese words in the process, especially those words that express unique(独特的) Chinese ideas that cannot be easily translated into English.
The OED is also thinking of adding hukou(户口) and dama（大妈） to the already 120 Chinese words in its dictionary. Hukou refers to (指的是) China's system of residency permits（户籍系统） and dama refers to middle-aged Chinese women whose gold buying habits influence the global gold markets. The news that the OED was adding these words has met with some criticism（批评）. Some people say the words embarrass (使人尴尬) China, but others insist that in a globalized (全球化的) society it's natural for words to spread and be adopted elsewhere. In fact, a word like tuhao expresses the humor of China. It's easy to pronounce and very accurate(精准的) at laughing at rich people who have more money than taste.________ may be adopted in the Oxford English Dictionary in 2014 according to the passage.
| A．Tuhao | B．Hukou | C．Dama | D．All above |
________can be called "tuhao" according to the passage.
| A．All newly rich people |
| B．People who own their money easily |
| C．People who love money very much |
| D．Newly rich people who spend money in an extravagant way |
The underlined word "caught on". (in Paragraph 2) most probably means________.
| A．流行 | B．继续 | C．接受 | D．蔓延 |
The last paragraph mainly talks about _______________________.
| A．humor of Chinese style |
| B．criticism on the adoption of Chinese words into OED |
| C．support on the adoption of Chinese words into OED |
| D．different opinions on the adoption of Chinese words into OED |
Hunan TV's new program, Dad,Where Are We Going? has become very popular since last year. The show tells us that fathers should take part in their children's growing-up. In fact, this topic was always mentioned by Zeng Guofan (1811-1872). a famous official(官员)during the late Daoguang Period of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912).
Although Zeng spent most of his time away from his family, his letters back home to his children and younger brothers have become famous. In these letters, there are many helpful suggestions on proper behavior(行为). Many of his ways on child education are popular among today's Chinese parents, including reading classical books and so on. His child-raising methods are useful for today's busy fathers. Like Zeng, they also spend most of their time away from home.
According to Zeng, the purpose of education was to learn wisdom(智慧)from books, rather than getting an official position. Children should know that the most important purpose of studies is to get more knowledge about nature and life.
"But now ,parents just want their children to be rich and powerful. " Mr. Tang, a writer in China, said.
Some teachers say that parents need to build a good relationship with their children. Parents shouldn't force (强迫)their children to realize their wishes.
In Zeng's letters, he asked his young children to do housework as part of their daily life, even though his children had many helpers. He believed that doing housework would make his children more confident and independent(独立的).When was Zeng Guofan born?
| A．In 1811. | B．In 1644. |
| C．In 1872. | D．In 1912. |
