24、Four years ago when I was a boy of 11, I got into the biggest trouble as a kid. It was a Saturday morning. Both my parents were out, leaving me and my 10—month—old sister became alone. Anyway, my sister was still asleep in her room. In fact I had the house to myself. I decided to do some drawing. Soon I gave up. Nothing was on TV, so I felt bored and touched the candles on the shelf…I had an idea! What would happen if I set fire to some kitchen paper? Well, of course it went on fire, but it wasn’t the tiny flame(火箭)I’d expected, and I couldn’t blow it out. I threw it on the floor, and then luckily got my dad’s boots(靴子)and stamped it out.

I thought I was safe until there was a HCGE hole in my room. When my mum came home later, she smelt the smoke immediately. She dropped the shopping bag, luckily for me, over the hole. I thought this meant she would never see it. However, after running round the house checking for a fire, she of course picked up the bag and saw the hole. Next I was grounded(关禁闭)and in trouble for months. Even though, the hole was still there, reminding me of what I did.

25、Have you ever recycled? To recycle is to take rubbish and make it into something new. Recycling is good for our planet because it makes litter  into something that we can use again. Recycling also helps to clean up the litter that makes our streets look dirty.

All kinds of things can be recycled. The most common materials(材料) like glass, plastic, paper, metals, cloth are all recyclable. Sometimes these products are broken down to make the same kinds of products. An example of this type of recycling is using paper to make more paper. Garbage can also be broken down to make completely new items(物品) as well!

Some items, like glass, can be recycled forever（永远）! We can use glass items, then break them down and use them again and again. Aluminum(铝)cans are one of the most successful recycled metals. They can be recycled again and again and nearly 60% of all cans have been recycled.

The average（平均） family of four can produce  nearly 2,000 pounds of garbage each year. As time goes on, we have fewer places to put all of this garbage in. Recycling is one way to limit（限制）the amount of garbage we need to put into the land.

The next time you toss a can or bottle into the dustbin, look to see if there is a recycling triangle on the label. It is the international sign for recycling. It means that the item you are going to throw in the dustbin could be recycled .

【1】To recycle is to ______.

A. Clean up the dirty things on the street

27、

“Add oil,” a popular Chinese phrase has been officially added to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED 牛津英语词典).

“Add oil” is a direct English translation of the Chinese phrase “jiayou”, an exclamation used very often across China to express encouragement or support for someone else. The phrase, “jiayou” in Chinese, literally (字面上) means put petrol to an engine. Chinese often speak it loudly in games and competitions to encourage players.

It was Hugo Tseng, an English professor at Taiwan’s Soochow University, who first noticed the entry (条目). Tseng said excitedly that for more than 10 years he had been often checking for the phrase following each OED quarterly update (更新).

Long before, a number of other Chinese phrases have been included in the OED, such as Guanxi (personal connections that are good for business) and Lucky money (cash given in red envelopes).

In 2014, the American Urban Dictionary(城市词典) collected several Chinese internet buzzwords, such as “no zuo no die” (which translates into English as “if you don’t do stupid things, they won’t come back and bite you in the back”), “you can you up, no can no BB” (which means “if you can do it you should go on and do it, instead of criticizing others’ work”).

The process for adding new words to the Oxford English Dictionary is as follows.

•   Dictionary compilers(编著者) notice a word’s widespread and repeated use by people.

•   Degree of shared use and easy understanding will influence the consideration.

•   Qualifying buzzwords from different languages are placed on a “watch list” for consideration.

•   New additions first appear in the dictionary’s official web databank before hard copies are printed. The online version(版本) is renewed every three months. The next update is in December.

【1】When Chinese speak “jiayou” loudly in games, it doesn’t mean________.

A.encouraging the runners to catch up

B.supporting for the players

C.adding energy to the cars

【2】How might Professor Hugo Tseng feel when he noticed “add oil” was collected into the OED?

A.Nervous B.Excited C.Interested

【3】What does the underlined word “buzzwords” mean?

A.中式英语 B.网络语言 C.流行语

【4】According to the passage, many Chinese buzzwords have been added into the OED EXCEPT________.

A.no zuo no die B.Lucky money C.Guanxi

【5】What is the passage mainly about?

A.A new Chinglish phrase appeared in the Oxford Dictionary.

B.Chinglish is no longer a problem for Chinese students.

C.The process for adding new words to the Oxford English Dictionary
