In Chinese, tu means rude and hao means rich. In recent years, people use this term to describe those who spend money in an unreasonable way. The word became more popular with the newest Apples gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by Chinas rich people. The color became known as “tuhaogold”.

My friends and I use them a lotits so much fun,” said an American student who studies in Beijing. BBC World News recently made a special program called “Tuhao, lets be friends!” “The frequent use of Chinglish by foreign media suggests that foreign people are looking more to the lifestyle and popular culture of China,” says Zhang Yiwu, professor of Peking University. What does this trend suggest about the Chinese language's influence? Xing Hongbing, professor from Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) said “These show that Chinglish is now being accepted by the rest of the world and they play important roles in daily life of Chinese. Behind these Chinglish words and phrases is the Chinese culture. They are reflections of the changes and trends in the Chinese society and they help people from other countries to understand what's happening in China.”1.Which of the following word is NOT Chinglish hot word?A. karaoke B. damaC.
