Many of you have heard a Cinderella story, but what you may not know is that there are over a hundred different ways to tell the Cinderella story. Each of these stories is written by a different author. The story of Cinderella has many different versions.

The version that most people know is the oldest one written in 1697 by Charles Perrault from France. This is the version where the birds help make Cinderella’s dress and the mice turn into carriage men and help Cinderella go to the ball in the pumpkin that turns into a carriage. In this version, many of the animals are Cinderella’s friends. They help her meet the Prince, who Cinderella marries, and together they live happily ever after.

In another version of this story, written in the 1850s by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm from Germany, there are birds that help Cinderella throughout the story. Cinderella’s mother is not living at the beginning of the story. She visits her mother’s grave three times a day to say a prayer for her.

Cinderella’s father has given her a brunch when he goes to the festival. She plants the brunch and her tears water the brunch until it grows into a tall tree.

The birds now live in the tree and they give Cinderella a dress of gold and silver and slippers of the same colours. Cinderella goes to the festival to meet and dance with the Prince. Later, Cinderella marries the Prince and they have a nice life ever after.

Do you understand “OMG” when you receive a piece of text message like this? Its meaning is “oh my god”. Have you seen Brb (be right back), gr8 (great), cya (see you)–it’s a lot easier to use abbreviations (缩写) when we text, isn’t it? But while we might think nothing of it, there’s an ongoing discussion that text messaging can have a bad influence on people’s grammar. Many believe the abbreviations are giving students bad habits when it comes to spelling and punctuation (标点).

Some teachers say that texting and social networking cause students to be lazy when writing. A study showed that young adults who often use text messaging find it rather difficult to turn back to correct grammar when needed.

But another view is that text messaging has no influence at all. Many people consider it to be a language of its own. We could compare it to a foreign language which students learn. This doesn’t have any influence on their native language.

Whether it’s bad or not, it seems that text language is becoming very popular. According to another study, 64 percent of teens said they used informal (非正式的) “text language” in their writing.

But it’s not just a matter of language. Students who text a lot during class may have difficulty paying attention. In another study, students were asked to complete a questionnaire on how many text messages they sent and received during class. On average, students sent more than two text messages during classes lasting 50 to 75 minutes. The study showed that students who often text during classes can’t easily keep their attention on the lesson, which will surely harm their learning.

Topic: Use abbreviation while 1.

Facts

Students sent more than two text messages during classes lasting fifty to seventy-five minutes.

A study showed 2. percent of teenagers used text language in their writing.

3.

Text messaging can have a bad influence on people.

Students become 5. because of texting and social networking.

Young adults find it hard to return to correct grammar once they have got 6. to abbreviating.

It is 7. for those who text a lot to pay attention in class.

Text messaging can hardly influence people.

It is considered as a language.

It could be 8. to a foreign language which students learn.

Conclusion

Using abbreviations can make it much 9. to send text messages.

No matter it’s good or bad, “text language” is 10. more and more popular.
