编辑点评：去年有雪灾，今年有地震，虽然都是天灾，却也引发了大家对环境、资源等问题的思考。再加上北京奥运的举办也让大家对环境问题比较挂心，BBC在今年年初的时候还发布新闻说北京2007年全年蓝天数达246天，另外对环境问题的关注也体现在12月的四级作文中（限制一次性塑料袋使用的话题）。
除了“排气”这个意思之外，exhaust还有一个常用的意思就是精疲力尽。今年的美国金融危机让我们也被蝴蝶翅膀不轻不重了拍了下，虽然对咱们国家整体的影响还不大，但是从事出口外贸、金融的朋友可能日子会有点不太好过，感受exhaust的几率也大一点。
所以，一个单词的两种常用义都踩在今年的热点事件上，还是四六级、考研、雅思等考试常考的词语，exhaust这个单词蝉联冠军也就可以理解了。
