17.Emojis(表情符号)
Have you found that more and more people are using emojis to communicate online?For example,"Happy Birthday"has become a cake with lit candles.And"I am happy"has become a smiling face.
Emojis have been warmly welcomed since they were invented in the 1990s in Japan.According to a survey of a mobile technology company,6 billion emojis are used in text messages around the world every day.Last year,20 percent of all emojis used in the UK and 17 percent of those used in the US was the icon.It became the most widely-used icon in 2015.
Emojis are now used as"a new form of expression",and one which can cross language barriers(障碍)."Emojis are popular among millennials,who were born between late 1980s and early 2000s,because they welcome new technology and new things and they think emojis are‘flexible(灵活的)and show meanings beautifully'",president of Oxford Dictionaries told The Wall Street Joural.
Since millennials became the biggest part in the American workforce(劳动力),emojis have been more accepted in the workplace.For many people,the tiny pictures also show that the users are part of mainstream(主流)society.In the digital age,emojis are"how most people communicate and show their personality many times every day."
But not everyone thinks the use of emojis is a good thing.Jonathan Jones of The Guardian said that the success of emojis is"a step back for humans",hurting people's ability to use languages.
"There are strict limits on what you can say with pictures-the written word is necessary to express your ideas and feelings to their highest level,"he said.

分析 你有没有发现,越来越多的人使用emojis(表情符号)在线交流?例如,"生日快乐"成了一个有蜡烛的蛋糕,"我快乐"已经成为一个微笑的脸.Emojis在上个世纪90年代在日本发明时就很受欢迎.根据移动技术公司的一项调查显示,全世界每天就有60亿的emojis用于短信.去年,20%用于英国和17%用于美国的就是"笑哭脸".它成为2015最广泛使用的图标.Emojis现在作为"一种新的表达形式",和一个可以跨越语言障碍的表达形式."emojis深受出生于上世纪80年代末和本世纪初之间的千禧一代的喜欢,因为他们喜欢新技术和新事物,他们认为emojis 很灵活而且表达很有美感",牛津词典的总裁是这样跟华尔街杂志说的.自从千禧一代成为美国劳动力最大的部分,emojis在工作场所也被认可.对许多人来说,小的图片也表明用户是主流社会的一部分.在数字化时代,大多数人每天用emojis来交流并且多次展示自己的个性.但不是每个人都认为emojis的使用是一件好事.卫报的乔纳森琼斯说,emojis的成功是"人类的退步",它降低了人们的语言运用能力."你能用图片表达什么有严格的限制,文字在表达想法和感情的最高水平时是必要的,"他说.你对emojis是"笑脸"还是"哭脸"呢?

5.We have heard about people who have special memories.Recently there has been a report about a woman from Australia who can remember almost every detail (细节) of all the events in her daily life.
Rebecca Sharrock,25,is one of just 80people worldwide who have been identified(确定) as having Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM,超级自传体记忆症).It means she can remember every small event-which most people would forget with in (在…以内)  days-as if it had happened just minutes ago.
"I remember my mum putting me in the driver's seat of a car and taking a picture of me when I was 12days old,"she said."That's my earliest memory.I remember every day since then.I can't tell all the dates exactly because I was too young to understand calendars,but I remember what I did that very day,what the weather was like and so on."
Rebecca can also re-experience taste.If she's eating something that she doesn't like,she thinks about Black Forest cake,her favorite food,and the memory will be so strong that she can nearly"taste"it.
However,sometimes her memories prove (证明)  to be painful.Because they're not just events that she remembers."When I relive (再体验) memories,the feelings return,too,"Rebecca said."For example,I remember falling over when I was three at my grandparents'house and hurting my left knee.Talking about it now,I feel painful in my left knee."
"At night,I have to sleep with the radio/recorder and a soft light on,n she added."1f it's too dark or quiet,my mind would be filled with all these memories and I can't sleep."
