2.读英文报道，找出上述表达的英文说法，并尝试翻译(考查阅读+翻译)
The Oxford English Dictionary has been unable to name its traditional word of the year for 2020, saying that 2020 is not a year that could neatly be accommodated in one single "word of the year". The report, titled "Words of an Unprecedented Year," moves through the year, detailing the most important words in certain months, based on spikes in use. It was "bushfire" in January, when Australia suffered its worst fire season on record. It was "acquittal" in February, when US President Donald Trump's impeachment trial ended. Starting in March, terms related to the coronavirus pandemic dominated, like "COVID-19", "lockdown", "social distancing" and "reopening". In June, use of the phrase "Black Lives Matter" exploded, followed by "cancel culture" and "BIPOC," an abbreviation of "Black, indigenous and other people of color". For August, "mail-in" and "Belarusian" were both flagged, referring to the US election and the controversial re-election of the Belarusian president. In September, it was "moonshot", the name the UK gave its coronavirus testing program, and in October, "net zero" and "superspreader" are highlighted. "Net zero" refers to Chinese government's pledge that the country will be carbon neutral by 2060, and "superspreader" spiked in use after a cluster of COVID-19 cases at the White House.
3.参考译文(程度好的同学可以尝试对译文进行润色)
《牛津英语词典》无法选出传统的年度词汇，称"2020年显然不能用一个年度词汇来概括"。基于使用量增长情况，这份题为《前所未有的一年中的词汇》的报告详述了这一年来每个特定月份中的最重要词汇。1月是"丛林火灾"(澳大利亚当时遭遇了史上最严重的火灾季)，2月是"无罪判决"(指的是美国总统特朗普的弹劾案终结)。从3月开始，和新冠疫情有关的词汇开始占据主导地 位，包括"新冠肺炎"、"封锁"、"社交隔离"和"重新开放"。6月，"黑人的命也是命"这一短语的使用量暴增，接下来是"取消文化"和缩写"BIPOC"(指黑人、原住民和其他有色人种)。8月的热门词汇是"邮寄选票"和"白俄罗斯的"，分别指邮寄美国大选选票和白俄罗斯总统在争议中再次当选。9月的热词是"登月"，指的是英国政府给新冠测试项目取的名字。10月的热词则是"净零"和"超 级传播者"。"净零"指的是中国政府承诺中国将在2060年前实现碳中和。白宫出现新冠聚集性感染后"超 级传播者"的使用量大增。
