A

Xia Ming was worried about his study, so he wrote a letter to a magazine.

Two readers read the letter from the magazine and here are their answers:

1.Xia Ming worried about ______.

2.Thumbelina gave ______ examples in the letter.

3.Thumbelina wrote about those famous people _______.

4.Which is NOT true?

5.“Tomorrow is another day.” tells us ______.

　　“Cool” is a word with many meanings. It means a little bit cold at first. As the world has changed, the word has got many different meanings.

　　“Cool” can be used to express(表达) feelings of interest in almost everything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It's cool.” You may think, “He's so cool.” When you see your favorite football star.

　　We all enlarge the meanings of “cool”. You can use it to mean “new” or “surprising”, here is an interesting story. It shows the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. One of her students just wrote, “It' so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.

　　But the story also shows some people do not have enough words. Without “cool”, they have no other words to show the same feeling. Can you think of any other words like “cool” with so many meanings? If you can, they are also very “cool”.
