IV. 阅读理解
A
"Funny", a made-in-China emoji, seems to have recently moved beyond China. Now, it is more than an emoji, but a cultural expansion.
● Reaching Global Markets
A series of "funny" emoji-based bolsters (抱枕) have attracted the attention of Japanese customers. Even if one bolster is more than three times as expensive as in China, it doesn't kill their desires to buy it. One Japanese customer Miki said, "They are just so cute and I bought three bolsters at one time for my family. And every time I see them, my mood just brightens suddenly."
A Japanese netizen Kiro Kara said, "I think the emoji implies very complicated meanings. My dad will send it when he doesn't agree with someone but he has to say something and behave politely."
● Addition to Domestic Social Media
Compared with Japanese impressions of the "funny" emoji, Chinese netizens prefer to use emoji to tease one another on social media.
One commonly seen online comment is, "We strongly suggest stopping the usage of the emoji. Because every time other people send me the emoji, I feel very uncomfortable and consider myself as a fool."
Regarded as the most popular emoji, the "funny" emoji has received much attention since its release in 2013. In fact, the "funny" emoji is the updated version of its original one; "funny" has a smiley mouth, two eyebrows and a naughty look. All these characteristics present users a sense of satire (讽刺).
● In Everyday Use Abroad
It's not the first time the Chinese emoji takes the world stage. Earlier this year, one emoji from the Chinese basketball celebrity Yao Ming has been spread through the Middle East region. In a city in southern Egypt, Yao's smiling emoji has appeared frequently in local traffic signs to remind people the road ahead is one-way. Many locals do not know Yao Ming but are familiar with his emoji and nickname "Chinese Funny Face".
As a new online language, emojis have become a necessary part of people's daily life, helping people express their views in a more vivid and precise way. Also, it can help foreigners learn about Chinese culture. But how to properly use "the fifth innovation in China" without hurting others and turn them into commercial advantages still need answers.
（1）Why do the bolsters attract Miki's attention?
A.They are inexpensive.
B.They help reach an agreement.
C.They help brighten the mood.
D.They are helpful to express desire.
（2）According to the passage, which of following is the latest "funny" emoji?
A. B. C. D.
（3）The main purpose of the text is to         .

D.show us the popularity of the emoji
B.

    A picture speaks a thousand words. And with over a thousand emoji pictures to represent our words, who needs to speak or write any more? According to Professor Vyv Evans of Bangor University, emoji is the UK's fastest-growing language in history. These little electronic pictures started life in Japanese mobile phones in the 1990s and are now hugely popular. They have inspired fashion, like the real-life dress copied from the dancing lady emoji, and are even recognized as art! In New York's Museum of Modern Art you can now see the first set of the 176 original emojis.
    Why do we love them so much? They allow us to personalize text and have fun as we express ourselves, make people laugh and be creative in how we use them. UK teenagers also told us they really appreciated the fact that emojis are quick and easy.
    People have their favourite emojis. In the UK, the most used emojis are ' face with tears ofjoy', ' face blowing a kiss' and 'Iove heart'. Maybe (with emojis at least) the British are more fun and romantic than people think! Companies such as McDonalds have also tried to use people's love of emojis to make advertisement. They used a series of emojis to tell a story of a disappointing day given a happy ending by a visit to McDonalds. Unluckily for McDonalds, most people added the vomiting(呕吐) emoji to the blank space after the story.
    What is the future of emoji? Is emoji developing so rapidly that it will soon compete with English as a global language? Or is technology changing so fast that emoji will soon be forgotten when the next big thing comes along? It is hard to say and even technology and language experts are divided on the subject.
    What do you think? Keep your eyes open for new developments!

D.It is difficult to know what will happen to emoji in the future.
C.
    Emoji might not be your first choice of communication in a disaster, but researchers feel they could make a difference during emergencies, where every second counts. Now, the Emoji-quake campaign is lobbying for an earthquake emoji to be added to the Unicode set — the standard group of icons available on digital devices worldwide. The campaign aims to find an earthquake-appropriate design to be submitted to Unicode.
    "Approximately up to one third of the world's population are exposed to earthquakes," explains University of Southampton seismologist (地震学家) Dr. Stephen Hicks, a founder of the campaign. "So we really want to be able to communicate to all of those regions, all of those different languages, and an emoji is an amazing way of doing that."
    Unlike many other weather and climate related events, where longer warning times or visible signs are available, earthquakes move incredibly quickly and are difficult  to measure while they are still occurring. Populations in areas like Japan and Mexico are dependent on earthquake early warning technology, which issues an alert on digital devices and broadcast media. "You may have seconds to get under a table or to protect yourself," explains Dr. Hicks. "That can be life saving in many cases. Naturally you don't want too much wording in the warning message."
    Pictographs (象形文字) and other visuals like emoji have a track record of being faster and easier to understand than written information. Dr. Sara McBride, a communications specialist, who is also part of the campaign, told BBC News, "Emoji can cross the boundaries of written languages, helping communicate valuable information to people who may struggle to read a certain language."
    The potential usefulness of emoji in emergencies could extend well beyond earthquakes. A team of designers also came up with emerji—an entire set of emoji dedicated to climate and environmental events.
（1）According to the passage, why did the campaign choose earthquakes as their target?
A.Because earthquakes threaten many people in different regions.
B.Because earthquakes are the easiest to be expressed by an emoji.
C.Because earthquakes are not difficult to measure while occurring.
D.Because earthquakes are the most destructive disasters in the world.
（2）Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase "lobby for" in the first paragraph？
A.Hope for. B.Enter for. C.Appeal for. D.Run for.
（3）What can we infer from Dr. Sara McBride's words about emoji?
A.Emoji benefits people with reading disability a lot.
B.Emoji is being used to convey valuable information.
C.Emoji can cross the boundaries of written languages.
D.Emoji is a universal language and helpful tool in communication.
（4）The best title of the passage should be ___________________.
A.Could an emoji save our life?
B.What can emoji do in our life?
C.How is emoji changing our life?
D.Do we really know about emoji?
D
O'Plerou Grebet is a 22-year-old graphic design student in Côte d'Ivoire, Africa. Everywhere he looks, he sees signs of Western influence — from the glass skyscrapers and malls lining the streets in his home city to the way his fellows speak and dress. "We are living like we're Western people," he says. That even applies to the keyboard culture — when his friends text using the messaging apps, they especially love to use the "tears of joy" face emoji (表情符号). So he used his design skills to create digital stickers that show what he thinks is missing: symbols of history, life and culture in Côte d'Ivoire and neighboring countries.
In 2018, he released a free pack of over 360 stickers in a mobile app called "Zouzoukwa", which means "image" in the local Bété language. Available on Android and iOS, it now has over 120,000 downloads. It's more impressive than other emoji apps, with the feature of connecting to the realities of Africans using it." It would make their jokes even livelier," says Grebet. The stickers include traditional masks, African instruments like the djembe drum and people dressed in a variety of prints and clothing that can reflect local tradition.
Some of his favorite designs are a series of facial expressions commonly used in his area, but not available as standardized emojis. There's a woman with lips pursed, giving some serious side-eye—a sign you can use when your friend keeps you waiting long for no reason. It's common in Côte d'Ivoire and also translates across cultures, Grebet says.
The next step, Grebet says, is to try and get some of his designs into the official emoji set, where they'd reach more than 2 billion people worldwide, as usable ones on smartphones everywhere. Grebet also plans to keep traveling and expanding his experiences and his sticker pack. His designs so far are drawn from his experience and research into a few African countries.
（1）How does Grebet find their local culture according to paragraph 1?
A.It's very similar to Western culture.
B.It's absent in many aspects of their life.
C.It's full of inspirational ideas and symbols.
D.It's influential in local people's lifestyle.
（2）What's Zouzoukwa's advantage over other emoji apps?
A.It provides a better source of jokes.
B.It's designed based on daily items.
C.It's related more closely to the locals.
D.It applies to both Android and iOS.
（3）Which feeling does the woman emoji mentioned in paragraph 3 convey?
A.Curiosity. B.Sorrow. C.Annoyance. D.Disappointment.
（4）What will Grebet probably do next?
A.Be on tour to advocate his designs.
B.Create an official emoji set.
C.Research into more African countries.
D.Standardize some of his emojis.
V.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A. How do they affect us?
B. Emojis are real pictures.
C. Why are emojis important?
D. The invention of emojis changed that!
E. This means that emojis have created a new brain pattern in us.
F. The first emojis appeared on Japanese mobile phones in the 1990s.
G. A written message is black and white, but an emoji adds emotions to our messages.
    When you write a message or an email, you might put a smiling face or other pictures at the end to make the message more fun. These pictures are emojis (表情符号).        Later, they were used on Apple's iPhone and Android phones. Now they are everywhere!
    Emoticon or emoji?
    Before emojis, there were emoticons, which can be made from the signs you can find on your keyboard, for example: for a smiley. Emoji is a Japanese word which means photograph. e ("picture") + moji ("character").        There are all kinds of emojis, from faces and weather pictures to things in the kitchen and animals.
    What are emojis for?
    In English, we have a saying: A picture paints a thousand words. For many people, an emoji is like a punctuation mark, or smiling at someone across the room.        It is like the tone (语气) of voice when we speak on the phone, or gestures used in conversation.
          
    When someone speaks and looks serious, we try to look serious, too, and when someone smiles, we smile as well. This is how we show empathy (共鸣) and make friends.
    But when we are online, we can't see the person's face and there is no emotion.        Scientists in Australia have discovered that when we look at a smiley face online, the same parts of the brain start working as when we look at a real smiley face. Our mood changes, and we try to change our face to match the emoji.

VII. 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
    Have you found that much of your online communication has been replaced by emojis(表情符号) ? Has "Happy Birthday" become a cake with       (light) candles? Since they were invented in the 1990s in Japan, emojis, meaning "picture characters",       (occupy) the world. According to a UK-based mobile technology company, 6 million emojis used in text messages are sent around the world every day through smartphones.
    That's why for the first time Oxford Dictionary's Word of the Year is emoji-- a face       tears of joy. Emijis are regarded as a new kind of       (express). Behind the popularity of emojis        (be) the rise of young people        welcome new technology and inventions. So the reason why young people as well as others love to emoji is that they show meanings        (beautiful). When young people are asked what makes the generation unique,        put "technology use" first.
    Now emojis are in much       (wide) use than written words. As       result, people began to doubt whether it has made up a too large part in our online communication.

（4）D
【解析】本文是一篇新闻报道，讲述了非洲科特迪瓦一名22岁的平面设计专业学生O'Plerou Grebet设计了一些体现当地特色和文化的表情符号，很受人们欢迎。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“‘We are living like we're Western people,’ he says. That even applies to the keyboard culture — when his friends text using the messaging apps, they especially love to use the ‘tears of joy’ face emoji (表情符号). So he used his design skills to create digital stickers that show what he thinks is missing: symbols of history, life and culture in Côte d'Ivoire and neighboring countries.”“我们就像西方人一样生活，”他说。这甚至适用于键盘文化——当他的朋友使用信息应用发信息时，他们特别喜欢使用“喜悦之泪”表情符号。因此，他运用自己的设计技巧，创作出数字贴纸，展示他认为缺失的东西：科特迪瓦和周边国家历史、生活和文化的象征。可知，西方文化影响了科特迪瓦人生活的方方面面，因此O'Plerou Grebet创作出数字贴纸，展示他认为缺失的东西（科特迪瓦和周边国家历史、生活和文化的象征），可知正是因为当地文化在他们生活的许多方面都没有，O'Plerou Grebet才发现了缺失的当地文化。故选B。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“It's more impressive than other emoji apps, with the feature of connecting to the realities of Africans using it. ‘It would make their jokes even livelier,’ says Grebet. The stickers include traditional masks, African instruments like the djembe drum and people dressed in a variety of prints and clothing that can reflect local tradition.”它比其他emoji应用程序更令人印象深刻，它的特点是贴近使用它的非洲人的现实生活。“这会让他们的笑话更生动，”Grebet说。这些贴纸包括传统面具、非洲乐器（如德杰姆贝鼓）以及人们身着各种印花和服装，这些都能反映当地传统。，可知Zouzoukwa相对于其他表情应用的优势是贴近使用它的非洲人的现实生活，体现当地生活和文化特色，即它与当地人的联系更密切。故选C。
（3）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“There's a woman with lips pursed, giving some serious side-eye—a sign you can use when your friend keeps you waiting long for no reason.”有一个女人撅着嘴，严肃地侧视着——当你的朋友无缘无故让你久等的时候，你可以用这个手势。可知你的朋友无缘无故让你久等，你肯定会生气，此处提到的Grebet这个设计（撅着嘴、斜着眼的女士）传达的是恼怒的情绪。故选C。
（4）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“Some of his favorite designs are a series of facial expressions commonly used in his area, but not available as standardized emojis.”他最喜欢的一些设计是他所在地区常用的一系列面部表情，但不是标准化的表情符号；和最后一段中的“The next step, Grebet says, is to try and get some of his designs into the official emoji set, where they'd reach more than 2 billion people worldwide, as usable ones on smartphones everywhere.”Grebet说，下一步是尝试将他的一些设计融入官方表情包，这些设计将覆盖全球20多亿人，成为各地智能手机上可用的设计。可知Grebet喜欢的一些设计还无法作为标准化的表情符号使用，他下一步会尝试将他的一些设计融入官方表情包，这些设计将被全球20多亿人看到，成为标准化的表情符号。故选D。

【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了有关“表情符号”的事宜。当你写一条信息或一封电子邮件时，你可以在结尾放一张笑脸或其他照片，让信息更有趣。我们的情绪会改变，我们试着改变我们的脸来匹配表情符号。
（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“ These pictures are emojis (表情符号). ”这些图片是表情符号。再根据空后“Later, they were used on Apple's iPhone and Android phones. ”后来，它们被用于苹果的iPhone和Android手机。”承接上下文，F.The first emojis appeared on Japanese mobile phones in the 1990s.“第一个表情符号出现在20世纪90年代的日本手机上。”切题。关键词是emojis。故选F。
（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“Emoji is a Japanese word which means photograph. e ("picture") + moji ("character"). ”Emoji是一个日语单词，意思是照片，e(“图片”)+moji(“性格”)。”再根据空后“There are all kinds of emojis, from faces and weather pictures to things in the kitchen and animals.”这里有各种各样的表情符号，从人脸和天气图片到厨房里的东西和动物。承接上下文，B. Emojis are real pictures.“表情符号是真实的图片。”切题。该项中的real pictures与下文的all kinds of emojis, from faces and weather pictures to things in the kitchen and animals相吻合。故选B。
（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“It is like the tone (语气) of voice when we speak on the phone, or gestures used in conversation.”它就像我们在电话里说话的语气，或者在谈话中使用的手势。承接下文，G.A written message is black and white, but an emoji adds emotions to our messages.“文字信息是黑白的，但表情符号会给我们的信息增添情感。”切题。该项中的an emoji adds emotions to our messages与下文的内容相吻合。故选G。
（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。此空是小标题。结合上下文的小标题，应该用问句，在A/C中选择。再根据空后‘’When someone speaks and looks serious, we try to look serious, too, and when someone smiles, we smile as well. This is how we show empathy (共鸣) and make friends.“当有人说话和表情严肃时，我们也会努力表现得严肃，当有人微笑时，我们也会微笑。这是我们表达同理心和交朋友的方式。”由此可知，A. How do they affect us?“它们如何影响我们?”切题。故选A。
（5）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“But when we are online, we can't see the person's face and there is no emotion. ”但是当我们上网时，我们看不到这个人的脸，也没有情绪。再根据空后“Scientists in Australia have discovered that when we look at a smiley face online, the same parts of the brain start working as when we look at a real smiley face. ”澳大利亚科学家发现，当我们在网上看到一张笑脸时，大脑中与我们看到真实笑脸时相同的部分开始工作。”承接上下文，D.The invention of emojis changed that!“表情符号的发明改变了这一切!”切题。故选D。

VII. 【答案】 lighted；have occupied；with；expression；is；who；beautifully；they；wider；a
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了自从在20世纪90年代，日本发明了表情符号后，网络交流就被表情符号代替了。表情符号被看作是一种新的表达方式，是年轻人的独特之处。人们开始怀疑它是否已经在我们的网上交流中占的比重过大。
（1）考查非谓语动词。Light的逻辑主语是candles，它们之间是被动关系，用过去分词作定语，故填lighted。
（2）考查时态。句意：自20世纪90年代日本发明表情符号以来，表情符号一直占据着世界。根据Since they were invented in the 1990s in Japan,可知用现在完成时，故填have occupied。
（3）考查介词。句意：这就是为什么《牛津词典》的年度词汇第一次是表情符号——一张喜笑颜开的脸。文中表示“带着…”，故填with。
（4）考查名词。句意：表情符号被认为是一种新的表达方式。作宾语，用名词，故填expression。
（5）考查主谓一致。句意：在表情符号流行的背后，是欢迎新技术和发明的年轻人的崛起。这里使用了倒装，主语是the rise of young people，是单数，故填is。
（6）考查定语从句。句意：在表情符号流行的背后，是欢迎新技术和发明的年轻人的崛起。         welcome new technology and inventions.是一个限制性定语从句，先行词是young people，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，所以填关系代词who。
（7）考查副词。句意：所以，年轻人和其他人都喜欢emoji表情的原因是，它们表达的意思很美好。该空修饰动词show，用副词，故填beautifully。
（8）考查代词。句意：当年轻人被问及是什么让这一代人与众不同时，他们会把“技术应用”放在首位。指代前面出现的young people，故填they。
（9）考查形容词。句意：现在，表情符号的使用比文字要广泛得多。根据than written words.可知这里在作比较，用比较级，所以填wider。
（10）考查冠词。句意：结果，人们开始怀疑它是否在我们的在线交流中，占据了太大的一部分。as a result固定短语，“结果”，故填a。
【点评】本题考点涉及非谓语动词，时态，介词，名词，主谓一致，定语从句，副词代词，形容词以及冠词等多个知识点的考查，是一篇社会文化类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
VIII..【答案】 ①happen → happened  ②that → where  ③surprised →surprise  ④were → was  ⑤practice前面加to  ⑥But → So  ⑦practice → practicing  ⑧去掉learn后面的from  ⑨communication → communicate  ⑩free → freely
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者在QQ的聊天群里面练习口语并且取得了进步。
①句意：有一天，我在QQ上偶然发现一个聊天室，那里的人都在用英语聊天。happen是本句的谓语，本文时态为一般过去时，谓语动词应使用动词过去式。故happen改为happened。
②句意：有一天，我在QQ上偶然发现一个聊天室，那里的人都在用英语聊天。分析句子结构可知，本句是非限定性定语从句，先行词是“a chatting room”，在从句中作地点状语，用关系副词where。故that改为where。
③句意：令我惊讶的是，我发现一些初中生的英语口语比我好。to one's surprise固定短语，“使某人惊讶的是”。 故将surprised改为surprise。
④句意：令我惊讶的是，我发现一些初中生的英语口语比我好。宾语从句中的主语是“the oral English”，所以谓语应该用单数。故were改为was 。
⑤句意：我向他们征求建议，他们告诉我要多在QQ上练习。tell sb to do sth，固定短语，“告诉某人做某事”，故在practice前面加to。
⑥句意：所以从那以后，我每天都会花一个小时在QQ上练习英语口语。联系上下文可知，上一句与本句是因果而非转折关系，所以用so表示结果。 故But改为So 。
⑦句意：所以从那以后，我每天都会花一个小时在QQ上练习英语口语。spend time (in) doing固定短语，“花时间做某事” 。故practice改为practicing。
⑧句意：我每天都学到了许多有用的单词和短语。learn作“学习”讲可用作及物动词，后面可以直接跟宾语，learn from固定短语“向……学习”，与语境不符。故learn后面的from去掉。
⑨句意：随着时间的流逝，我发现我甚至可以与一些大学生自由交流。此处用动词在句中作谓语，情态动词could后面加动词原形。故communication改为communicate。
⑩句意：随着时间的流逝，我发现我甚至可以与一些大学生自由交流。修饰动词communicate应该用副词。freely自由地，注意虽然free也可作副词，但表示“免费地”，不符合句意，故free改为freely。
【点评】考查短文改错，本题考点涉及时态，定语从句，名词，主谓一致，连词，非谓语动词，介词以及副词等多个知识点的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，覆盖面广，综合性强，难度较大，区分度高。

3. Dear Jim,
I'm more than elated to inform you of some changes in our school at your request.
Renovated in 2019, the main buildings now have a modern feel, with dark orange walls and white borders. Meanwhile, the whole campus is bursting with vigor, full of recently-planted trees and flowers.
Hardware facilities have been upgraded, including new blackboards and computers in the classrooms. The school library, which has been under repair during the last three months, will reopen next week. It is said that the library will seat more students and the librarians have restocked the library shelves with large quantities of new books.
I am glad to witness these changes. They have provided us a better place to study and live. Frankly speaking, I will have a hard time leaving after graduation.
All the best.
Yours,
Li Hua
