It’s nothing new to learn on the Internet, but since 2012, a new kind of online education has become more and more popular. Do you know what it is? It is called MOOC（大规模在线公开课程）.

In 2012, two Stanford professors, Sebastian Thrun and Peter Norvig, decided to offer their lessons for free online. To their surprise, more than 160,000 students in 190 countries took their classes. This led them to build Udacity.com, the first website for MOOC. In less than a year, other MOOC websites, such as Coursera.com and EdX.com, were also set up.

MOOC is different from usual online learning. Professors have been trying to keep it similar to a real class. You should sign up（报名）to take the class. You can communicate with other students in many different ways. You have to answer some questions when you watch videos, and you will have some homework to do after class. If you take the class on time, do all the homework, and pass the final test, you can get a certificate in the end.

Some people believe MOOC will change the traditional education style. In the future, anyone at any age in any place can take classes for free. These classes are all from the best teachers of the best universities in the world!

A new word is becoming more and more popular on the Internet in China - but no one knows quite what it means.The word "duang" is so new that you can’t even find it in the Chinese dictionary. But it has already spread(传播) like fire on the Chinese Internet , appearing more than 8,000,000 times on Weibo, where 15,000 users had more than 312,000 discussions. On Baidu, it has been looked up almost 600,000 times. But what does it mean?

"Everyone's duang-ing and I still don't know what it means! Looks like I’d better go back to school now," said Weibo user Fahmida.

Another user asked: "Have you duang-ed today? My mind is full of duang duang duang."

"To duang or not to duang, that is the question," wrote user Beatrice.

"Duang" seems to be imitating (模仿) a sound. It all seems to have started with Hong Kong action star Jackie Chan, who in 2004 appeared in a shampoo ad (洗发水广告) where he used the sound “duang” to describe his soft and black hair. The word came to people again recently(最近) after Chan posted it on his Weibo page. Thousands of users then began to visit Chan's Weibo page with comments (评论).

The word seems to have many different meanings, and there's no perfect (完美的) Chinese meaning for it, but you could use it to give emphasis (强调) to the word that follows it. A kid might be "duang cute", for example.

A. 312,000　　 B. 15,000
