The Year in a Word or Two

Can anybody describe a year with only one word?

Each December, the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) nominates (提名) a word to describe the very year     1     has just passed.

2020 was a very unusual year that was really worthy     2     (describe) with two words. Two of the obvious words the OED suggested were “pandemic (疫情)” and “lockdown,” due to most of human activities across the globe     3     (bring) to a stop by the life-threatening disease. Businesses have been closed and people have had to stay in their homes for weeks or even months on end.

    4     I would like to nominate “cooperation” and “hope” as my words of the year because it is supposed to be described in a more positive and       5     (helpless) way, because there was a great deal of cooperation between countries and international health organizations. China took a leading role in this effort by sending masks and protective clothing to Canada, the United States and Europe,       6     to countries in the Middle East and Africa. Without this cooperation, the pandemic, bad       7     it has been, could have been much worse.

And that brings me to my second word: hope. We are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and, with a little “hope,” we will get to see the world begin to return to normal.

For young people, it was the first time that they       8     (experience) something big, a worry that they shared with their families, friends and neighbors, and a suffering       9     (endure) at this moment and to be endured next few weeks. And they also learned that “hope” — the belief that       10     you will see tomorrow will be better than today — is at the heart of every human being.

With “cooperation” and “hope,” 2021 should make for a wonderful year.
