Their pigeons are special birds. In 1999, students found two injured pigeons and gave them a home. To get money for bird food, the kids sold rubbish paper They took good care of the birds,

I am studying in Beijing now .I have a day off today. Now let me tell you something about Beijing. In our country people drive cars on the left side of the road, but here in Beijing, on the right side. Many people of London go to work by car, while most people of Beijing go to work by bike.

“Cool”is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature(温度) that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.
“Cool”can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.
When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you’ll say, “It’s cool.”You may think “he’s so cool ”when you see your favorite footballer.
We all maximize(扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new”or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way how the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just one sentence(句子), “It’s so cool.”Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life colorful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.
( ) 71. We know that the word “cool”has had_______.
A. only one meaning
B. no meaning

C. afraid of
D. unhappy with
( ) 74. The writer takes an example to show he is ______ the way the word is used.
A. pleased with
B. strange to
C. worried about
D. careful with
( ) 75. In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示) that the word “cool”_________.
A. can be used instead of many words
B. usually means something interesting
C. can make your life colorful
D. may not be as cool as it seems
