【原文】

Each summer,the Oxford English Dictionary,or OED,adds new words.Generally,the words are used in everyday speech for many years before they even have a chance to be added to the dictionary.However,with the popularity of social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter,people are constantly being exposed to new words.Those who use these sites pick up the vocabulary and begin to spread it - and quickly.Last summer,the word”eco-town”was added to the OED.Eco-towns are towns that are built to be environmentally friendly,and are often sponsored by the government.In addition,they seek to provide affordable housing to those who need it.The towns’ buildings are made from recyclable materials,and the energy used to power them is renewable,such as wind and solar energy. Even more impressively,the towns try to be car-free. Some think this is impossible,but in these towns,roads are built only to accommodate biking and walking.So far,the government of England has approved the construction of four eco-towns,but up until now,none have actually been built.Still,both the word”eco-town”and the ideas it represents have gained attention.Perhaps more governments throughout the world will support this new idea to help the environment,while giving people a safe and affordable place to live at the same time.
