[交流] 百年新单词

以下是英国牛津词典评选的最有意识的百年年度新单词，你知道每个单词出现的历史背景吗？
         　　Very few words are coined in isolation. Each neologism holds a
         clue, however faint, of the time in which it was created. The
         following choice of a single word from each of the last hundred
         years is inevitably subjective, since hundreds of new words are
         being created at any one time. Nonetheless, collectively these words
         give a distinct picture of the shifting preoccupations of the 20th
         century and the early years of the 21st. The dates of cheeseburger
         or mobile phone may surprise.
