Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.“Cool”
21、 can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say “Its cool.”You may think, “Hes so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer.We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”.

22、or “surprising”. Heres an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited.

26、can make your life colourful D. may not be as cool as it seems 参考答案 ：1C2B3A4C5D讲解：1见首句。2由“express”前后词义关系可推断出是“表达”的意思，与“show”同义。3由第二段首句可知。4由例子中的学生用cool 一词概括出他的所有感受，知cool词义的扩大会导致语言中词汇的缺乏，是令人担忧的。5结合第4题的答案可做出选择。 参考答案 ：1.
