noun.In our childhood,we all learned the difference between a noun and a verb.With such a clear definition,it was easy to notice the difference.Not so in adulthood,when we are expected to foot the bill and chairmeetings.Chances are that you didnt feel uncomfortable about those verbed nouns.The verbing of nouns is as old as the English language,n says Patricia,a former editor at The New YorkTimes Book Review.Experts found that 20%of all English verbs were originally nouns.And it seems to besnowballing.Since 1900,about 40%of new verbs have come from nouns.Even though the conversion(转 化)is quite common,plenty of language experts disagree with it.WilliamStrunk Jr.and E.B.White have this to say,Many nouns lately have been pressed into service as verbs.Notall are bad,but some are in doubt.The Chicago Manual of Style takes a similar standpoint,advisingwriters to use verbs with great care.Sometimes people dislike a new verb because they refuse to accept what is unfamiliar to them,“saysPatricia.Thats why were comfortable hosting a party,but we might feel upset by the thought ofmedaling in sports.So are there any rules for verbing?Benjamin Dreyer,copy chief at Random House,doesnt offer a rule,but suggests that people think,twice about verbifying(使 动 词 化)a noun if its easilyreplaced by an already existing popular verb.Make sure its descriptive but not silly-sounding,he says.In the end,however,style is subjective(主 观 的).The easy conversion of nouns to verbs has been partof English grammar for centuries.lt is one of the processes that make English“English0.Not every newword passes into general use,but as for trying to end verbing altogether,forget it.8.What can we learn about the verbing of nouns?A.It has come into use since a long time ago.B.It has been supported by many language experts.C.It is easily replaced by existing verbs in practice.D.It is more commonly accepted by children than adults.9.What is language experts*attitude towards the verbing of nouns?A.Cold.B.Careful.C.Unclear.D.Positive.10.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A.It is impossible to end the verbing of nouns.B.New verbs will stay in the English language forever.C.Most people are against using new verbs from nouns.D.There is an obvious rule for changing verbs to nouns.11.What can be the best title for the text?A.Are all new verbs from nouns?B.Are there any rules for verbing?C.Are you comfortable about a new verb?D.Are summering and medaling annoying?DAnts know when an earthquake is about to strike,researchers have discovered.Their behavior changesgreatly before the quake and they normal functioning only a day after it.Gabriele Berberich of theUniversity of Duisburg-Essen in Germany presented these findings according to Live Science.Berberich and her team discovered that red wood ants preferred to build their homes right along activefaults(断 层)in Germany.They counted 15,000 mounds(土 堆)lining the faults.These faults are theplaces where the earth breaks in earthquakes.Using a special camera that tracked changes in activity,Berberich and her team tracked the ants round theclock for three years.They found that the ants*behavior changed only when the quake was over magnitude2.0.There were 10 earthquakes between magnitude 2.0 and 3.2 during this period,and many smallerones.Humans can also sense quakes over magnitude 2.0 only.According to Berberich,normal ant activity is made up of going about collecting food during the day andresting in the night.But before an earthquake,the ants didn*t go back to their mound in the night and movedaround outside it.This strange behavior continued till a day after the earthquake,Berberich told a newsconference,according to Live Science.How do ants know an earthquake is coming?Berberich suggested that they could either be picking upchanging gas or noting small changes in the earths magnetic fields(磁 场.Red wood ants have specialcells which can sense changes in carbon dioxide levels.They also have special cells for discoveringelectromagnetic fields,M she said.Berberich and her team are planning to continue the research in areaswhere there are more and bigger earthquakes.12.The underlined word resume in Paragraph 1 probably means A.present B.recover C.quit D.improve13.What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A.To bring in the main topic.B.To make the
