“My family have been watching the‘Super Girl’ singing competition TV programme. My little daughter ?asked ?me what‘PK’ meant, but I had no?idea,” said a Yangzhou father.
To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing MUD games (多用戶網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲) online, it is impossible not to know this jargon(行話). In such Internet games, “PK” is short for“Player Kill”, in which two players fight with each other until one ends the life of the other. In the case of the “Super Girl” singing competition, “PK” was used when two singers had to compete with each other for only one chance to go up.
Like this father, Chinese teachers at high schools have also found their students’ compositions, using Internet jargon, difficult to understand. Once a high school teacher from Nanjing asked her students to write compositions, but they came up with a lot of Internet jargon that she didn’t understand. “My ‘GG’ came back this summer from college. He told me I had grown up to be a ‘PLMM’. He always took me to the ‘KPM’...,” went one composition. “GG” means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for “brother”). “PLMM” means Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful girl). “KPM” is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonalds. “Gr 8”means “Great”. “LOL” has the meaning of “Laugh Out Loud”.
If you don’t even know what a “Kong Long” (a bad-looking girl) or a “Qing Wa” (a bad-looking boy) is, then you’ll perhaps be thought as a “Cai Niao” (a person who starts to use the Internet).
While some language experts agree that Internet jargon is a new development in language, many teachers and parents are worried that too much use of such language may keep the students away from the “right” usages (使用) or make them fail to do well in language exams.
71. The Yangzhou father doesn’t know the meaning?of “PK”.
72. Many Chinese school students like to use Internet jargon in their speaking and writing today.
73. On the Internet, you can use “GG” and “MM” to show you are very happy.
74. We call a person “Cai Niao” if he or she is a beginner in using the Internet.
75. If you use the Internet jargons in your composition, it will be difficult to understand.
76. “PK” in the Internet games means to help the other.
77. Many teachers and parents think of Internet jargon may keep the students away from the “right” usages of language.

Every year, many foreign students go to America to study English. Some of them will live in an American family, but others will make a different decision. They’ll live with friends who come from their own country. I believe that if a foreign student thinks carefully about the two ways, he’ll decide to live with an American family. Even though there are one or two disadvantages (不利之處) to the first way, there are far more advantages.
In making his decision about how to live in the USA, the foreign student is careful to think about one or two disadvantages to live with an American family. First of all, he must know that he’s going to feel homesick(想家的) at first. Living in an American family may make this feeling become stronger. Also, the American family may do too much to take care of him. They may ask him where he’s going, when he leaves home, and when he’ll return.
If a foreign student lives in an American home, he’ll know the country and its people much better. For example, he’ll see how the parents teach their children. He’ll feel better because the American family will help him get used to a new life. In an American family, he can learn English fast. Family members can help him with his homework. When he speaks English, they can help him correct the mistakes he has made. In this way, he can learn English more easily.

Judgement of learning

E. Answer the questions (根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答下列問題)：（14分）
What’s the meaning of the “dark horse”? It’s someone who wins when no one expects it.
Han Xiaopeng took China’s first gold on snow. He became an Olympic “dark horse” by winning the gold medal in men’s freestyle aerial skiing (自由式滑雪空中技巧) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before, let alone(更不用說) in the Olympics!
?“I never thought this would happen,” said the 23-year-old. “I feel like I’m in a dream.” It’s China’s second gold medal at the Turin Olympics. But more important, Han’s gold was the country’s first ever in a snow sport. In 2002, China’s Yang Yang won the gold for speed skating at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, US.
?Han’s win was unexpected but it doesn’t mean that he didn’t work hard.
??Han grew up in Jiangsu Province. Before he started his training on snow, he used to be an acrobat (雜技演員) at a circus. In 1995, a coach found his talent (才能). The coach, Yang Er’qi, said Han had the agility (靈活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. ?When Yang first took the 12-year-old boy to northern China, he couldn’t swim, skate or ski. But he wasn’t afraid of the high platform (跳臺(tái)) and kept on training.
??Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake Games. In that Olympics he only got 24th. “I was hopeless at that time, but my family and the coach stood behind me firmly, helping me through,” he recalled.
??Han Xiaopeng worked so hard that he won the gold medal in the Olympics at last. Because of his success, more and more people in China are becoming interested in skiing. We are proud of him and we hope he will have another big success in the next winter Olympics.
99. What does “dark horse” mean in Chinese?
??????
100. Who got the first gold on snow?
??????
101. What did Han Xiaopeng do before?
??????
102. Why did the coach choose Han Xiaopeng to be a ski jumper?
