“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express the 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 say, “It’s cool!” You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall 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.
But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite importomt to keep some credibility(可能性) . Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think the are also very cool.
