The 115-year-old famous Oxford Dictionary will now include popular new Chinese terms like “shanzhai” “youtiao” and “fangnu”, as part of the modern Chinese language.
As China plays a more and more important role in the world economy, the Chinese language is forever developing, attracting more attention from people who want to understand this ancient yet powerful language．
For instance, the word “shanzhai” is used to describe the countless knockoffs（名牌仿制品）.Another new term in the new edition is the word “fangnu”, a term used to describe the phenomenon in large cities where well-educated youth complain of a miserable existence due to the heavy burden of a home mortgage(按揭贷款).All these new or often fashionable terms can be found in the new Oxford English –Chinese, Chinese-English dictionary. that was unveiled(公布于众的)in the recently concluded Beijing International Book Fair last week．
This dictionary is the largest single volume English-Chinese, Chinese-English dictionary and contains 670,000 words and phrases after five years of preparation. Sixty editors from the Oxford University Press and its partner in China—the Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press worked together on the project. According to Julie Kleeman, the dictionary’s chief editor, most of the firm’s editors were Chinese, while about one fourth were native-English speakers．
“We don’t want to make it florid（绚丽的）, we want it to be modern and conversational. Many of the words in the present dictionary are no longer in use.” said Kleeman. “The need for studying Chinese by foreigners today is totally different from decades ago. Precise, native and practical—that is our main advantage,” she said. She added the dictionary also has a sidebar section that explains words which contain too much cultural information, like “hutong”, a traditional architecture style of Beijing. Another would be “youtian” the popular Chinese breakfast choice usually eaten with soybean milk.
Kleeman said in the future newer updated versions will be only available online as language often changes too quickly for book versions to keep up with. The online version will also offer a Chinese pronunciation guide．
The online version, allowing access via different platforms from the PC to the iPhones, will be ready “as soon as possible”, Kleeman said.Why will Oxford Dictionary include popular new Chinese terms?
| A．To attract those who want to get a better understanding of Chinese. |
| B．To develop the international working language, English. |
| C．To keep up with the development of the world economy. |
| D．To interest people and sell at a higher price. |
We can use the following words to describe this new dictionary EXCEPT__________.
| A．accurate | B．flowery |
| C．practical | D．native |
The newer updated versions will be only available online because______.
| A．book versions are too expensive to buy |
| B．book versions can’t offer a Chinese pronunciation guide |
| C．they can keep up with the quickly changing language |
| D．they will allow access in different languages |
What can we learn from the text?
| A．Oxford Dictionary has a history of more than 100 decades. |
| B．the word “shanzhai” can be only found in online versions. |
| C．Most of the dictionary’s editors are native English speakers. |
| D．Oxford Dictionary will be modern, practical and multifunctional |

Who needs guard dogs when you have wolves , right? That’s probably what Kazakh villagers in the Almaty region though when they decided to replace their dogs with the fierce forest dwelling beasts. According to local news reports, taming(驯化的) wolves is now the latest trend and a sort of hobby among rural Kazakhs.
Nurseit Zhylkyshybay, a farmer from the south-eastern Almaty region, told reporters that he purchased a wolf cub from hunters three years ago, and the animal is now perfectly tamed.
Kurtka, Nurseit’s pet wolf, lives in the family’s yard and takes long walks through the village with his master. “He’s never muzzled,” Nurseit insisted. “I rarely put him on a chain and do take him for regular walks around the village. Our family and neighbors aren’t scared of him at all.”
But wolf expert Almas Zhaparov said that the animals are ‘far too dangerous’ to keep at home. “A wolf is like a ticking bomb, it can go off at any moment,” he warned. “If nothing is done, the fashion could spread to the wealthy Kazakhs, who might try to keep wolves in the grounds of their houses, with possibly deadly consequences.” Social media users also expressed worry about the trend, accusing the government for failing to limit the practice.
Nevertheless, the wolves don’t seem to be posing an immediate threat. If visuals from news reports are anything to go by, the beasts look pretty happy with their new lifestyle, and appear quite fond of their new masters, not unlike dogs.The writer uses the example of Kurtka to show that____________.
| A．wolves can be tamed. |
| B．wolves are like ticking bombs |
| C．wolves like living with humans |
| D．keeping wolves at home is easy |
The underlined word “muzzled” in Para 3 means___________.
| A．puzzled | B．beaten |
| C．got his mouth covered | D．got changed |
According to Almas Zhaparov, keeping wolves at home is___________.
| A．a fashion | B．a disaster |
| C．a necessity | D．a hone |
What can we learn from the text?
| A．Wolves are easy to get tamed. |
| B．A pet wolf can become aggressive at any moment. |
| C．The government will prevent people taming wolves as pets. |
| D．Wolves are as loyal to their masters as dogs are. |

I love camping. It is my favoritest way to spend the summer vacation. Last year, my family and I went camping in the countryside. It was one of the most excited experiences I had never had. We slept in a tent and went on a long walk every day. We cook over a fire and the food always tasted wonderfully. For a whole week, I saw lovely mountain views or breathed fresh air. At night, I heard the gentle wind blowing in the tree, and I felt so peaceful. It doesn’t cost many to camp, and what I believe it’s the best way to get close nature and enjoy its beauty.

Nowadays parents and their children are spending less and less time communicating with each other. . It is reported that American parents today spend about 40 percent less time with their children than parents did a generation ago. To keep your family time creative and enjoyable, below is a list of helpful family time tips.
1. Eat together & listen to each other
Most children today don’t know the meaning of a family dinnertime. Yet the communication and unity built during this time is necessary to a healthy family life. Sharing a meal together allows parents and their children the opportunity to talk about each other’s lives. .
2. Read often
It’s important for parents to read to their children. The latest research shows that reading to your children develops an interest in knowledge and contributes to language development. It also increases their concentration on things and helps them become more curious. . After reading, ask questions about what the books are about.
3. Start a hobby or project
Choose a fun activity that your children are interested in. Activities like cooking, fishing or biking can be their great hobbies. . Once a child learns a new skill, let him or her take the lead under your direction.
4. Plan a family outing
. Jump into the family car and go for a drive. Prepare a picnic lunch and visit a local park. Take time to play or ride a bike. A slow and relaxing walk in the woods will help parents communicate with their children better. Also, a visit to the zoo or museum will inspire enthusiasm in a child and lead to long discussions.
| A．It is very important for children to exercise. |
| B．They can open the door to exciting family time. |
| C．Sometimes getting out of the house is important. |
| D．Look for books that your children would enjoy reading. |
E. New technology has made video games more popular with children.
F. This is also a time for parents to listen and give advice to their children.
G. As a result, many children are getting less love than their parents once got.
The most common problem that worries all of us today is the fear of insecurity. Life has become so competitive that every now and then we are struck (遭遇) by the fear of the unknown. With every new turn of events our self-confidence takes a blow. The biggest challenge before every person today is not to lose confidence in one’s ability.
There are several reasons that affect a person’s self-confidence. The most important reason is lack of success. Not being able to succeed affects one’s self-confidence greatly. This is when one begins to doubt his own ability. In many cases one’s self-confidence is low when he feels rejected by society. For example, a person who loses his job gives a wide berth to other people for fear of being questioned about his work. However, this isn’t right at all. One needs to think along positive lines in spite of failures. After all it is your life and you have every right to live your life as you wish.
The challenge lies in not allowing your self-confidence to decrease. It is very important to believe in yourself. Self belief is the secret to success. When success doesn’t come to you, you should not allow your self-belief to be affected. Always keep in mind that success is sure to come in time. So, there is nothing wrong with your ability. Whenever lack of success causes you to doubt your ability, don’t forget to remind yourself that quick success does not last long. Also remember not to compare yourself to others. These tips will do a world of good to your confidence.
In order to be self-confident, you need to have a lifestyle that is right for you. Create one and live a life as you want to. Leave others to themselves.According to the text, what causes people to fear the unknown?
| A．The low abilities. |
| B．The lack of security. |
| C．The loss of self-confidence. |
| D．The severe competition in life. |
What does the underlined phrase “gives a wide berth to” in Paragraph 2 mean?
| A．Introduces something to. |
| B．Holds a birthday party for. |
| C．Makes friends with. |
| D．Keeps away from. |
What is the function of the first paragraph ?
| A．To explain the meaning of self-confidence. |
| B．To explain why self-confidence is important. |
| C．To show the main topic – to be self-confident. |
| D．To show the reasons that affect one’s self-confidence. |
In the author’s opinion, it’s important that one _____.
| A．should not forget his failures |
| B．should follow others’ advice |
| C．should not lose heart |
| D．should believe life |
Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.
Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season.
Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.We can infer from the text that humans and animals ______.
| A．depend on one sense in choosing food |
| B．are not satisfied with their food |
| C．choose food in similar ways |
| D．eat entirely different food |
Certain animals change their choice of food when ______.
| A．the season changes |
| B．the food color changes |
| C．they move to different places |
| D．they are attracted by different smells |
We can learn from the last paragraph that ______.
| A．French and British food is good |
| B．food is chosen for a good reason |
| C．some people have few choices of food |
| D．some people care little about healthy diet |
