All through the winter, the Esquimaux (爱斯基摩人) live in houses made of snow. These small houses are very clean and white when they are new. They can soon turn dirty, but pieces of fresh snow make them new again.
Sometimes the Esquimaux build their small houses with the wood that they find along the seaside. However, they aren't always so lucky. When they can't get wood, they use the snow. It is so cold that the snow becomes very hard, so the small houses are strong enough in the whole winter. The windows of these houses are not made of glass, but of ice.
When the warm weather comes, the houses become water slowly. The Esquimaux get wet as they lie in bed, and often catch a cold. They are glad to get away from the small snow houses and live in their tens during the summer.

China's hot word, tuhao, maybe in Oxford English Dictionary.
In Chinese, tu means rude and hao means rich. In recent years, people use this term to describe those spend money in an unreasonable (不合理的) way. The word became more popular with Apple's gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by China's rich people. The color became known as "tuhao golden". The word is now often used to refer to people who have money but lack (缺乏) taste.
There are two other Chinese hot words: dama and No Zuo No Die, which may also be taken in the dictionary. Dama, meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal Thousands of Chinese women were buying a large amount of gold when the gold price had gone down. Another phrase No Zuo No Die, meaning if you don't do stupid things, they won't come back to bite you, is also very popular. Other words, such as Maotai, Chinglish and dim sum have also been included in the dictionary.
BBC World News recently made a special program called "Tuhao, let's be friends!" "The frequent (频繁的) use of Chinglish by foreign media suggests that foreign people are looking more to the lifestyle and popular culture of China," says Zhang Yiwu, professor of Beijing University.
What does this trend (潮流) suggest about the Chinese language's influence
Xing Hongbing, professor from Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) said "These show that Chinglish is now being accepted by the rest of the world and they play important roles in daily life of Chinese. Behind these Chinglish words and phrases are the Chinese culture. They are reflections (反映) of the changes and trends in the Chinese society and they help people from other countries to understand what's happening in China."
24. _____ can be called "tuhao" according to the passage.
A.The rich who like the iPhone made of gold
B.People who bought a lot of gold
C.People who can be friends
D.The rich people who lack taste
25. Which of the following word is NOT Chinglish hot word
A.Dama B.Karaoke C.Tuhao D.Dim sum
26. The word "dama" become so popular because _____.
A.they bought gold crazily when its price went down
B.they are wealthy middle-aged women in China
C.they bought much gold and made the gold price up
D.they worked on the Wall Street and sell gold
27. What is the purpose of this article

B.To clearly explain the meanings of some Chinese hot words.
C.To describe the use of Chinglish hot words and their influence.
D.To show people's different opinions about Chinglish hot words.

Firstly, it's not very far away, so I might go in the morning and return to have dinner with my family. I don't want to spend the night in a spaceship. Secondly, I've heard stories about Neil Armstrong and how he walked on the moon for the first time. I want to take a walk where Neil took his. I will take my dog Biscuit, because I want my dog to share this once-in-a-lifetime experience with me. I guess I will also take my iPad to kill time on the journey. I will also take a bag of sunflower seeds and plant them on the moon. Hopefully they will grow and make the moon a more beautiful place.
