Nowadays, with the development of the Internet, emoji(表情符號) are more and more popular among netizens(網(wǎng)民). Some people even feel difficult to talk online without using emoji. Emoji help netizens to communicate with each other easily and vividly(生動地). Yet, not all emoji are properly used on social media. So we are going to introduce some common but confusing(令人困惑的) emoji to help you have a better understanding of these small signs.

1:A recent survey shows, over 53% people use the emoji when they are chatting online. Some people think it means “I'm shy. ”, but others only use it when they are surprised or shocked. But what does it really mean? It is still an unsolved(未解決的) question.

2:What do you think of this sign? Believe it or not, 80% of netizens use it under the meaning of “It is not funny at all, but I have to smile. ” Is it right? Of course not! It actually means that “I saw what you did (usually bad things) and I want to give you a sinister(奸詐的) smile. ”

3:People have very different opinions on this emoji. The Apple company has told that this emoji means “high five(嗨,擊掌)”. But most people still use the incorrect meaning—“pray”. Some netizens even thought, “If you see this emoji as two people give each other a high five, you must be a bad guy. ”

4:According to the official guidelines(指南), it is used as “smile through tears”. However, most young netizens consider this emoji as “l(fā)augh to tears” or simply “LOL”, which means “l(fā)augh out loud”.

You see, emoji are also a kind of language. And different people have different understanding of them.

When your great-grandparents (曾祖父母) were young, the world was very different. People did not have the kind of technology (技術(shù)) that we have to communicate with each other today. Things such as mobile phones and computers were not yet invented (被發(fā)明). It took longer for people to get news about each other. Today’s technology makes it easier and faster to stay close to people.

Long ago, people wrote letters to keep in touch. From 1860 to 1861, letters were carried by horses. The horse riders were paid to carry letters across the country. Then trains began to carry letters from city to city. By the early 1902, planes were a faster way to carry letters across the country and around the world.

As time goes by, new inventions have made it easy to contact (聯(lián)系) friends and family in seconds! People began to use telephones in the late 1800s. Modern phones can do many things. Mobile phones can be carried with us wherever we travel. Some phones can even let you take pictures. These images can be sent to other mobile phones.

Computers have made some of the biggest changes in communication. The Internet sends e-mail messages around the world in seconds!
