Note the intonation(语调)．It means “wonderful〞，“great〞，“cool〞，“splendid〞．It came into English from United States’ slang in the 1980s or maybe earlier.Certainly it arrived in Britain in the late 1980s.It was part of a trend which goes back decades to use bad words to mean good concepts，or the other way round.I mean you might remember saying，“That’s great.〞meaning “It isn’t great.〞And always there’s been this use of the word “naughty〞to mean “nice〞．So it’s part of a general trend.It’s mainly used as an adjective in front of a noun，for example “We had a wicked time！〞 Or，of course，you can use it on its own by just saying “Wicked！〞as a reaction—that’s how youngsters use it.A nd youngsters，of course，knowing that grown­ups are now using it as well，have decided to use other bad words in the same sort of way－I’ve heard young people in recent years use words like “evil〞 meaning “good〞，or “brutal〞meaning “good〞．“Wicked〞 is still around.This means，of course，that the traditional sense of “wicked〞 is now being squeezed out(挤出)．So with “wicked〞，tone of voiceis the only way to tell the old meaning from the new meaning，and even that’s ambiguous(模糊的) sometimes，so you have to be careful，and pay very careful attention to the context.And notice that the word is extending its use.The other day，for the first time，I heard somebody say “wicked cool〞，meaning “very cool〞．1．What does the passage mainly tell readers?A．The changing meaning of English words.B．The change of the word “wicked〞 in meaning.C．The way to use English words.D．English words from American slang.2．The author tells readers to pay attention to the intonation of the word “wicked〞because ________.A．the word is easy to misunderstandB．its intonation decides its meaningC．there is another word with the same pronunciationD．there are many meanings of the word3．According to the passage，which of the following words is often used to express its oppositemeaning?A．Cool. B．Wonderful.C．Splendid.

imagine the grim days of the 19th century when so many of the population starved，or that，in those days，many poor people had no clue how to prepare any food other than boil a potato.Nowadays，it is quite possible to eat both well and heartily all over the island.Tourism has made a vast difference to the standards of cooking in Ireland.Until recently, there was hardly any tradition of eating out in many districts，except perhaps on very few occasions at a local hotel.Patterns of diet were old­styled，based firmly on ‘meat and two vegetables’ (somewhat overcooked)，potatoes (of course) and large quantities of dairy produce.Now things are very different.Tourist demands for predictable，inexpensive fast food are met，as everywhere，with hamburgers and pizzas—a better bet being fish and chips.But more sophisticated tastes have introduced whole foods and vegetarian restaurants (almost unheard of before)，and a vast number of new restaurants，often French in style，have opened in the main tourist centers.Food “events〞such as Kinsale’s Gourmet Festival or Galway’s Oyster Festival attract large numbers of visitors and reflect the new interest in food.Whatever Irish cooking lacks in finesse(精细)，it nearly always makes up for in plenty，and ingredients(成分) are of a high quality.Home­grown produce includes rich dairy foods，beef，lamb and pork，and a great variety of seafood.One of itsgreat specialties is soda bread.It is made with buttermilk and is served fresh and warm with every meal.Recently there has been a return to simple Irish foods such as stews(炖菜) and potato dishes.One of the best­value meals in Ireland is breakfast.A “traditional Irish breakfast〞is a plateful of bacon and eggs with soda and potato breads.Accommodation rates are nearly always quoted with a full breakfast included，so you might as well eat enough to keep you going all day and get your money’s worth! 1．What was Irish food like until quite recently?A．It was very conservative and uninteresting.B．It was influenced by French cooking.C．It was very unhealthy.D．It was plentiful.2．How has Irish food improved in recent years?A．There are more French restaurants.B．Food produce is fresher.C．There are more kinds.D．Food is more expensive.3．How does the passage describe Irish cooking today?A．It is exciting and interesting.B．It is boring and overcooked.C．It is plentiful and simple.D．It is good­looking and tastes bad.4．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．Eating out at weekends is traditional in most parts of Ireland.B．Today most Irish people prefer fast food to the traditional Irish cooking.C．Nowadays French­style restaurants are quite common in touris t centers.D．Many Irish people are vegetarians and grow their own vegetables.答案根底落实Ⅰ.1.D 2.A 3.A 4.A 5.B 6.CⅡ.1.consists of 2.clarify 3.included 4.joined to5．connected to 6.broke away7.do work8．for convenience 9.settled in 10.collectionsⅢ.1.to 2.without 3.in；by；in
