1.Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum(论坛) asking what “PK” meant.
“My family has been watching the ‘I Am the Singer’ singing competition TV programme. My little daughter asked me what ‘PK’ meant， but I had no idea，” explained the puzzled father.
To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online， it is impossible not to know this term. In such Internet games，“PK” is short for “Player Kill”， in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other.
In the case of the “I Am the Singer” singing competition，“PK” was used to refer to the stage where t wo singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition raking.
Like this father， Chinese teachers at Middle schools have also been finding their students using Internet jargons which are difficult to understand. A teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write the compositions with simple language，but they came up with a lot of Internet jargons that she didn’t understand.
“My ‘GG’ came back this summer from college. He told me I’ve grown up to be a ‘PLMM’. I loved to ‘FB’ with him together; he always took me to the ‘KPM’，” went one composition.
“GG” means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for brother). “PLMM” is Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful girl). “FB” means Fu Bai (corruption). “KPM” is short for KFC，Pizza Hut and McDonald’s.
Some specialists welcome Internet jargons as a new development in language.

【1】 What will the house of the future look like? Could it have gardens on its walls， or a pool with fish for diner? Architects(建筑学家) believe that they may come true one day. The only thing
for sure is that the houses will be as green as possible in the future.
【2】 Many architects in the world would like to build a house like a leaf—the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water， produce electricity， and even make fresh air
for the room. The “roof” (根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil to control the room’s temperature.
【3】 Like a lizard(蜥蜴)， changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it’s in the bright sun， the cover of the house will return white to protect it from strong heat. During dark days， it turns dark and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.
【4】 This design is perhaps for the future of food. It has a garden on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes， carrots and green tea on them. So every morning， you just need to walk outside and collect your meals.
