The Buzzwords of 2016 in China

In 2016, Chinese people came up with some funny and confusing new phrases. Here are three examples for you.

Mushroom

Blue Thin Mushroom became very popular when a video about a young Chinese man from Guangxi Province, saying to his girlfriend in his local accent（方言）that he was upset and wanted to cry because of losing love

Badass Word Br other

Lì haile wǒde ge

You may find it strange to say "word brother". That's because the pronunciation of "word" is similar to "my" (wǒde) in Chinese. The phrase is used to show admiration. Though there is a "brother" here, women are included as well.

You are what you eat. Here is some advice on healthy eating.

Eat breakfast

Breakfast is the most important meal of a day. Some people don't eat breakfast to be thinner. But they can't get the result they want. The body will burn calories(卡路里) slower and what's worse, people may get overweight.

Learn about your body

Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty. Sometimes you are just thirsty and you need no food. Eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. So your body can digest (消化) most of the food before you rest comfortably.

1.What may happen to Jenny if she doesn't have breakfast?

A.Her body will burn calories faster.

B.She will be thinner successfully.

C.She may become heavier.

2.What can you learn from the chart?

A.We'd better eat as soon as we feel hungry.

B.We'd better not go to bed until our body digest most of the food.

C.We'd better drink more water when we feel hungry.

My 11-year-old daughter has been offered an academic scholarship (獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金) to a private school. It's only a small discount (折扣), but the scholarship means she is accepted by the school which my husband and I need to pay $ 20,000 a year for. Should we pay the private school cost, or choose free education instead?

It was really a hard decision for us to make. For me, I always wanted my children to go to a private school, like I did. Not because my family is rich, but because I believe that the best education is private. It took years for me to make peace with the fact that my two children attended our local public primary school. “They'll go to a private high school.” I told myself.

But the fact is that my eldest is now in her last year of primary school, and my husband and I will find our way to afford the private school. If so, I could increase my work hours. My law degree was supposed to be my ticket to a good job and a good pay, but that was just our wishes, not the fact.

During many sleepless nights, I felt troubled by the decision. Although I want the best for my daughter, I have my own dreams too. I can't give up everything for my baby girl. I explain that I want to be a positive (積極的) role model for my daughter, and an unhappy parent is a terrible strain on a family. I point out that even the best private school won’t protect my children from disappointment or hard work. And finally, it's decided.

Because I understand it's my family that shaped me instead of my great private school education. I can no longer remember the maths problems and what Shakespeare said which I once knew so perfectly. The lessons from my family, however, have turned out to be impossible to forget.

1.The scholarship her daughter has won means that ________.

A.she is good at sports B.the family is full of love

C.she is accepted by that private school D.they don’t have to pay for the school

2.The underlined word strain in Paragraph 3 means ________.

A.憤怒 B.安慰 C.負(fù)擔(dān) D.解脫

3.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A.The writer had a good job with a good pay.

B.It took a long time for her to make the final decision.

C.Her two children attended their local private primary school.

D.The scholarship her daughter won could cover all of her school cost.

4.We can infer from the passage that ________.

A.the daughter will go to a public high school

B.private schools provide better education than public schools

C.the writer wanted her daughter to receive the best education

D.her daughter’s talent was wasted at the public primary school
