“Cool”is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As theworld has changed, the world 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’s so cool,”when you see your favourite footballer. We all maximize (擴大) themeaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new”or “surprising”. Here’s an interestingstory we can use to show the way the word is used. Ateacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.”Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
