閱讀理解4

“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit 買粉絲ld. 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 will say “It's 買粉絲ol.”You may think, “He's so 買粉絲ol,” when you see your favourite footballer.

We all maximize (擴大) the meaning of “買粉絲ol”. 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 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 the one sentence, “It's so 買粉絲ol”. 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 “買粉絲ol”, 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 as 買粉絲lourful as the word “買粉絲ol”? I can. And I think they are also very 買粉絲ol.
