　　" Cool " is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.

　　" Cool " can be used to  express  feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, "It's cool." You may think, "He is so cool," when you see your favourite football player. And here is an interesting story we can use to show one of the different ways the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. One student wrote, "It's so cool." Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt. But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without " cool ", some people have no words to show the same meaning. So can you think of many other words that makes your life as colourful as the word " Cool " ?  If you can, I think that is also very cool.
