二、阅读理解
A
??? French writer Frantz Fanon once said: ＂To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture.＂ Since the world changes every day, so does our language.
??? More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of today's changing world.
??? After a year that was politically unstable, it's not hard to understand the fact that people's political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is ＂clicktivism＂, a compound of ＂click＂ and ＂activism＂. It refers to ＂armchair activists＂ — people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And ＂otherize＂ is a verb for ＂other＂ that means to alienate (使疏远)people who are different from ourselves — whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.
??? Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, ＂fitspiration＂ — a compound of fit and inspiration — refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.
??? The phrase ＂climate refugee＂ — someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change—reflects people's concern for the environment.
?According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. ＂People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,＂ he said.
??? But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.
（1）What is the article mainly about?
A.?Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.?????????B.?The application of new words and phrases.
C.?How a language mirrors the changing world.?????????D.?The impact of social media on our language.
（2）The underlined word ＂coin＂ in the second-to-last paragraph probably means ???????????.
A.?use?????????????????????????????????B.?record?????????????????????????????????C.?change?????????????????????????????????D.?create
（3）How is the article mainly written?
A.?By giving examples.?????????????????????????????????????????B.?By making comparisons.
C.?By following a timeline.???????????????????????????????????D.?By presenting research findings.
（4）According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should ???????????.
A.?be easy to remember???????????????????????????????????????B.?have unique meanings
C.?reflect the changing world??????????????????????????????D.?be meaningful, expressive and catchy
B
?????????????????????
? ??? A glass a day keeps obesity at bay. Wine has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet. Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight, those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.
? ??A scientist for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Proper drinking may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain.” An official organization reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that present data do not clearly show if proper drinking increases weight.
? ??Boston University's Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the reasons relating alcohol (酒精) to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects (效果) of proper drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes (糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very fat people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.
? ??The group says alcohol provides energy that is quickly absorbed into the body and is not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking drinking patterns into consideration.
? ??For now there is little evidence that drinking small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one's risk of becoming too fat. What's more, a study three years ago suggested that a chemical found in grapes and red wine, destroys fat cells.
（1）Who is the passage intended for?
A.?Those who sell alcohol.????????????????????????????????????B.?Those who produce wine.
C.?Those who have a drinking habit.???????????????????D.?Those who wish to quit drinking.
（2）What does the phrase “in moderation” in the first paragraph refer to?
A.?Excitedly.????????????????????????B.?Carefully.????????????????????????C.?Properly.????????????????????????D.?Frequently.
（3）What can we learn from the passage?
A.?A chemical found in grapes increases the risk of becoming fat.
B.?The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are clear.
C.?Present data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.
D.?The research found proper drinking has a strong protective effect.
（4）What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?
A.?How to do some easy experiments.
B.?How to make wine in a healthy way.
C.?How to prove the finding mentioned above.
D.?How to reduce the calories contained in wine.
