What’s the English word for the Chinese food jiaozi Perhaps you would say “dumpling”. But actually, you can just say “jaozi”. It has been officially(正式地) 11 to the Oxford English Dictionary. Until now, about 120 12 words have been added to the Oxford English Dictionary, becoming a part of the English language.
Why have these words become 13 It may be because of increased interest in learning Chinese. The Confucius Institute (孔子学院), which offers Chinese lessons, has set up 1,073 14 in 140 countries and areas, with 2.1 million students. —People’s Daily reported.
The CFLPA (中国外文局) studied 50 media platforms (媒体平台) in eight English—speaking 15 , including the US, the UK and India. The report listed the top 100 Chinese 16 that people in these countries use the most.

Tuhao used to represent the village landlords (地主) 21 owned a lot of land and had many servants in the old days, but now it is used to refer to the 22 who spend money like water or like to show off. That is to say, they have wealth but no taste. Dama (aunt)is a calling to middle—aged 23 , but now it especially refers to the Chinese women who buy a lot of gold when gold price 24 recently.

People around the world love their pets. Cats are very popular. Their strange and funny behavior has made them really popular on the Internet, too. And English has many cat expressions.
Today we talk about one that is about canaries（金丝雀）. With the beautiful feathers and lovely bird-song, many people keep them as pets. Some cats like to catch such small birds. So, if a cat eats one, it may have a look on its face that shows both pride and guilt（内疚）. The cat was happy when it did it even if it was wrong.
If I look very proud but a little guilty for doing something, others can say that I “look like the cat that ate the canary”. This means, “I should not have done it, and I know it was wrong. But I am still pleased with myself!”
When using this expression, don’t forget the guilt part. If you have a friend who didn’t study hard but still passed the test because she cheated and still looked proud of it… then the expression will work quite well.
Now, we use this expression in other situations. When we have a secret, we may look hike the cat that ate the canary. We also use it when we feel smug. It means you are too proud of yourself. This kind of people are also hiding something from others or simply not telling all the details.
31．What does the underlined word “smug” in Paragraph 5 probably mean in Chinese ________.
A．自豪的 B．内疚的 C．不以为然的 D．自鸣得意的
32．Which paragraph shows how this expression “look like the cat that ate the canary” is created
A．Paragraph 2. B．Paragraph 3. C．Paragraph 4. D．Paragraph 5.
33．Why can cats be popular on the Internet
A．Because they are proud and guilty. B．Because they are lovely and beautiful.
C．Because they can catch the small birds. D．Because they have strange and funny behavior.
34．What can be learned from the last paragraph
A．We use this expression in only one situation. B．We shouldn’t be too pleased with ourselves.
C．We can use this expression in other situations. D．We should try to hide something from others.
35．What would be the best title for the text

include包括；show展示；return归还；represent呈现，赠送；根据“Other popular words… ‘yinyang’, ‘yuan’, ‘gugong’, ‘nihao’, ‘wushu’, ‘qi’, ‘qigong’, ‘renminbi’ and ‘majiang’.”可知，句子中所提到的词都是很流行的词，结合上句中“at the top of the list”，判断此处使用include 表示“包括”，符合语境。故选A。
19．句意：例如，尽管“土豪”和“大妈”是旧词，但是它们却有着新的含义。because因为；although尽管，但是；since自从；when当……的时候；分析句子可知，“土豪和大妈是旧词”与“它们有着新的含义。”之间存在转折关系。故选B。

People around the world love their pets. Cats are very popular. Their strange and funny behavior has made them really popular on the Internet, too. And English has many cat expressions.
Today we talk about one that is about canaries（金丝雀）. With the beautiful feathers and lovely bird-song, many people keep them as pets. Some cats like to catch such small birds. So, if a cat eats one, it may have a look on its face that shows both pride and guilt（内疚）. The cat was happy when it did it even if it was wrong.
If I look very proud but a little guilty for doing something, others can say that I “look like the cat that ate the canary”. This means, “I should not have done it, and I know it was wrong. But I am still pleased with myself!”
When using this expression, don’t forget the guilt part. If you have a friend who didn’t study hard but still passed the test because she cheated and still looked proud of it… then the expression will work quite well.
Now, we use this expression in other situations. When we have a secret, we may look hike the cat that ate the canary. We also use it when we feel smug. It means you are too proud of yourself. This kind of people are also hiding something from others or simply not telling all the details.
