　　(2017·东北三省四市第一次联考)

　　In the past, they were laughed at for being eggheads(书呆子) wearing glasses with a passion for the pointless. But now, being a member of their group has become a source of pride, with Collins online dictionary naming the term “geek” as UK's “Word of the Year” on December 16.

　　“Geek” tops the list for 2017 because of its “positive makeover”， a spokeswoman for Collins Dictionary told The Scotsman newspaper.

　　The word originally appeared in the 19th century as a variant(变形) of “geck”， meaning “a simpleton(傻瓜)”．

　　“In the 1980s, the word still had a negative meaning, referring to someone who was boring and socially awkward. However, from the late 20th century, due to the increasing importance of technology in society, the word has come to mean a clever, switched­on and cool person，” noted The Scotsman.
