We update the constraints on the cosmological parameters by adopting the Planck data released in 2015 and Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) measurements including the new DR14 quasar sample measurement at redshift $z=1.52$, and we conclude that the based six-parameter $\Lambda$CDM model is preferred. Exploring some extensions to the $\Lambda$CDM models, we find that the equation of state of dark energy reads $w=-1.036\pm 0.056$ in the $w$CDM model, the effective relativistic degrees of freedom in the Universe is $N_\text{eff}=3.09_{-0.20}^{+0.18}$ in the $N_\text{eff}+\Lambda$CDM model and the spatial curvature parameter is $\Omega_k=(1.8\pm1.9)\times 10^{-3}$ in the $\Omega_k+\Lambda$CDM model at $68\%$ confidence level (C.L.), and the $95\%$ C.L. upper bounds on the sum of three active neutrinos masses are $\sum m_\nu<0.16$ eV for the normal hierarchy (NH) and $\sum m_\nu<0.19$ eV for the inverted hierarchy (IH) with $\Delta\chi^2\equiv \chi^2_\text{NH}-\chi^2_\text{IH}=-1.25$.
