How can we strike a balance between using emojis and maintaining good language skills? Your presentation： Educators worry because they fear people are losing the ability to communicate properly using written or spoken words． Emojis won't replace written language in the future．We should use emojis moderately and practice written/spoken language to strike a balance． Emojis①： a new language? While waiting outside the cafeteria②， I received the following message from my friend： It took me a minute [1]before I realised what it meant．The signs③ [2]he used were to say that he'd be running late and would be there soon．Instead of replying with a simple“OK, don't rush④”， I searched for emojis on my phone [3]that would express the same message： ①emoji n．表情符号 ②cafeteria n．自助餐厅 ③sign n．符号；记号 ④rush v．仓促行事；急速行进 [1]before引导时间状语从句；what引导宾语从句。 [2]he used为省略了关系代词that或which的定语从句，修饰先行词The signs。 [3]that引导定语从句，修饰先行词emojis, that在从句中作主语。 This was my attempt to follow the trend⑤ of communicating with emojis．Emojis are used everywhere, from text messages to emails, blogs and other social media networks．With the rapid development of social media, emojis are becoming an integral⑥ component⑦ of the language [4]we use to express ourselves． [4]本句为省略了关系代词that或which的定语从句，修饰先行词the language。 ⑤trend n．趋势；趋向；倾向 ⑥integral adj．不可缺少的 ⑦component n．组成部分 The word “emoji” comes from Japanese, literally⑧ meaning“picture character”．Emojis are small symbols [5]representing ideas, emotions or feelings．They come in different categories⑨， such as faces and people, plants and animals, and food and drink． [5]动词­ing短语作后置定语，修饰small symbols。 [6]When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to⑩ 176 simple designs．Now there are more than 3，000 emojis [7]that expand⑪ upon the way in which we communicate．Due to their popularity, the Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year in 2015 was, for the first time⑫ ever, a pictograph⑬ instead of a traditional word． ⑧literally adv．根据字面意思 ⑨category n．类别 ⑩be limited to局限于 ⑪expand v．(使)扩大；增加 ⑫for the first time 第一次 ⑬pictograph n．象形图 [6]本句为时间状语从句的省略形式，When后省略了主语they和系动词were。 [7]that引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词emojis；in which引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the way。 In today's world, emojis have become more and more popular．[8]It seems that emojis have clear advantages over⑭ written language． People like them because they add emotional⑮ meaning, and are quick and easy to use．In fact, this is similar to the gestures⑯ [9]we use when we speak．[10]With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can“see”your facial⑰ expression while reading ⑭have advantages over 有……的优势 ⑮emotional adj． 情绪(上)的，情感(上)的 ⑯gesture n．手势，姿势 ⑰facial adj．脸上的；面部的 facial expression 面部表情 your words．Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they cannot find the appropriate words．For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of⑱ crying faces [11]to express your sadness over your separation． [8]It作形式主语，that从句作真正的主语。 [9]we use为省略了关系代词that或which的定语从句，修饰先行词the gestures。 [10]本句为“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构。 [11]动词不定式短语作目的状语。 ⑱a string of 一连串的； 一系列的，一批 The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature．A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare's popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak⑲ and emojis．The intention⑳ of these adaptations㉑ is [12]to make the classics more accessible㉒ to young readers．Some people, however, believe that these new versions㉓ have taken away the heart and soul㉔ of Shakespeare's plays． [12]动词不定式短语作表语，其中包含“make＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构。 ⑲textspeak n．短信简写语 ⑳intention n．意图，目的 ㉑adaptation n．改编版 ㉒accessible adj．易懂的 ㉓version n．版本，改编形式，改写本 ㉔soul n．精神 As we can see, emojis have a tendency㉕ to pop up all over the place．Users of emojis say [13]that they facilitate㉖ the way in which we communicate and express ourselves．But this makes others, especially educators㉗, worry [14]that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word．After all, how many of us today would rather send a message packed with emojis than make a telephone call?

我花了一分钟才理解这条消息的意思，这些符号是想说他要迟到了，会尽快过来。我没有简单地回复“好，别着急”，而是从手机上搜索了几个表达相同意思的表情符号： 这是我追随使用表情符号交流这一潮流的一次尝试。表情符号无处不在，短信、电子邮件、博客以及其他社交媒体网络都会使用表情符号。随着社交媒体的飞速发展，表情符号正在成为我们用于表达自我的语言不可或缺的一部分。 “emoji”一词源于日语，字面意思是“图画文字”。表情符号是表示想法、情绪或感受的小图标。它们可分为不同类别，比如面部表情和人物、动植物、食品饮料等。 1999年，表情符号首次在日本推出，当时只有176个简单的图案。现在我们能使用3 000多个表情符号来拓宽我们的交流渠道。由于表情符号的风靡，牛津词典2015年的年度词汇是，这是图画文字首次替代了传统意义上的单词。 在当今世界，表情符号越来越受欢迎。表情符号似乎比书面语言有更明显优势。人们喜欢它们，因为它们增添了语言的情感含义，使用起来方便快捷。事实上，这就像我们说话时用的手势一样。当在信息或帖子中加一个微笑表情或悲伤表情时，你的读者在读你写的内容时就能“看到”你的面部表情。表情符号还能帮助人们在找不到合适的词汇时表达他们的感受。举个例子，假如你的朋友将要搬去另一个国家，你可以发给他们一串哭脸，来表达自己对于你们将要分离的忧伤之情。 表情符号的使用甚至蔓延到经典文学之中。一套为年轻读者写的、内容取材于威廉·莎士比亚流行戏剧的系列丛书，就把书中一些词语更换为短信简写语和表情符号。这些改写的目的是使经典著作更容易被年轻读者接受。然而，也有人认为这些新版本剥夺了莎士比亚戏剧的精髓。 正如我们所见，表情符号的趋势是变得越来越随处可见。表情符号的使用者声称它们更便于我们沟通交流、表达自我。但是这使得一些人，尤其是教育工作者，担心我们正在失去使用书面语甚至口语来正确沟通的能力。毕竟，现如今，我们当中有多少人宁愿发送一条满是表情符号的短信，也不愿意打电话？或许有一天，人们会选择用图片来交流，忘记怎样正确书写。到那一天，表情符号将成为真正的图画“语言”。但是现在，或许我们最好还是享受使用它们的乐趣吧！

joyously stepped out to your backyard garden, only to find your cared­for plants and herbs dying? Was the soil too dry? Did pests find their way in? During times like these, some disappointed gardeners may wish their plant would just tell them what it needs．A new Microsoft­partnered project in the UK is trying to see if that concept can be demonstrated in real words． Next year, the Royal Horticultural Society in England will show off an “intelligent garden” that uses an AI model to monitor the garden's environment and inform gardeners when it needs care．Visitors will be able to walk up to virtual platforms and ask the intelligent garden questions about its current environmental state．The AI language module will then interpret the data and respond with phrases like “I need a bit more water” or “I need a trim (修剪)” depending on data collected in the soil． When it is completed, the garden will rely on a network of sensors throughout the garden measuring environmental factors like soil moisture (湿度) as well as wind and rainfall．All of that data is then sent to a specially designed AI model, powered by Microsoft's Azure Open AI Service, which can then process those factors and inform gardeners on better feeding, watering, or trimming suggestions． In theory, insights provided by models like this one could help gardeners use resources effectively and avoid over­watering plants before rainfall, both of which can aid in sustainability efforts．It's unclear, however, whether even the best models can account for individual plant tendencies like experienced gardeners． The garden's two designers, Massey and Je Ahn, wanted to avoid falling into the trouble of making the AI­powered garden feel overly artificial．Though sensors and algorithms (算法) play a significant role in maintaining the plants, the actual physical design of the space depended on humans．“AI hasn't designed the garden．It is assisting the gardeners to look after the garden，” Massey explained． [语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。英国皇家园艺学会利用AI技术创建智能花园，通过传感器网络监测环境并提供养护建议。 1．For what purpose is the AI­powered garden created? A．To water and trim the plants． B．To replace gardeners with technology． C．To allow visitors to design their own gardens． D．To monitor the situation and provide suggestions． √ 解析：选D。细节理解题。第二段提到“英国皇家园艺学会将展示一个‘智能花园’，该花园使用人工智能模型来监测花园的环境，并在需要护理时通知园丁。”这表明 AI 花园的目的是通过监测环境提供护理建议。故选D。 2．What role do the sensors play? A．Designing the garden． B．Controlling the AI system． C．Collecting environmental data． D．Monitoring the health of plants． √ 解析：选C。细节理解题。第三段开头说“项目一旦完成，花园将依赖于遍布花园的传感器网络，测量土壤湿度、风力和降雨量等环境因素。”这说明传感器的作用是收集环境数据。故选C。 3．According to the designers, the AI­powered garden ． A．is not as intelligent as human B．still needs gardeners C．struggles to maintain complex data D．can not handle single plant accurately √ 解析：选B。推理判断题。最后一段提到，“AI 并没有设计花园。它只是协助照顾花园的园丁。” 由此推断出 AI 只是协助园丁，而不是完全取代他们。故选B。 4．What's the best title of the text? A．AI Benefits Human's Life B．The Future AI­powered Garden C．AI­powered Garden Makes Plant Talk D．AI Garden Exhibition in the UK √ 解析：选C。主旨大意题。 文章主要介绍了英国一个与微软合作的项目——人工智能花园，这个花园使用人工智能模型来监测花园环境，并能让植物 “说话” 告知园丁它们的需求。故选C。 Ⅱ．阅读七选五(每小题2．5分，共12．5分) (2025·浙江温州高二上期末) Body Language in the Virtual World As social beings, we naturally interpret body language as an expression of mood or intention in real

perceive you．2( ) Similarly, slumping on the sofa conveys unwillingness to take the task seriously．Maintaining a proper posture by sitting up straight is the key to making a positive impression from the beginning． 3( ) In video calls, you need to be aware that less is more．Too many hand movements can be distracting in a small screen—people need time to take in what they are hearing．And when you are listening to others, glancing at your palms and drumming your fingers could also indicate to others that you are either bored or frustrated． Guard against “resting bored face” syndrome (综合征)．Our facial expressions are visible on screen, so demonstrating an objective response to whatever you see and hear is a must­have．But communicating that you are mindful at all times is challenging during a video meeting when “resting bored face” syndrome can set in—a facial expression that others register as boredom．4( ) Be present and active—don't multitask．Don't check your email or tackle other work tasks when you join a video call．5( ) While you may be confident that you can successfully do two or more things at once, and not lose track of what's being discussed, the non­verbal clues you are sending other participants will say otherwise． A．Master the art of employing gestures． B．Use fewer hand movements to avoid conflicts． C．Even if you are silent, others can see what you are up to． D．For instance, crossed arms can imply defensiveness or annoyance． E．This also applies to our virtual workplace with common video calls． F．To avoid this, remember to nod, smile and lean forward occasionally． G．Therefore, it's effective to straighten up to leave a positive impression． [语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在虚拟世界中，如何通过肢体语言在视频会议中留下积极印象。
