Though they have been around since the late 1990's, emoji(表情符號) usage has increased sharply with the popularity of smartphones.

Recently, a team from the University of Michigan and Peking University studied 427 million messages sent by users in 212 countries to see the differences in emoji usage by culture. Below are emoji use in text messages.

Though these findings were interesting, the most interesting was the conclusion(結(jié)論) that the emoji choice is influenced by societal environment. The researchers say that people living in countries like Australia and France who believe that one person's need is greater than that of a society or group—use happier emojis. But those from countries like Colombia often use sad or angry emojis.

Also, cultures like Turkey and Russia, known for their strictness, appeared to be more satisfied, at least according to the emojis. On the other hand, people in other cultures, like Mexico, seemed unhappy or dissatisfied.

The researchers believe that the findings of “emoji usage” will help make our emoji vocabulary larger. Who knew that the image we add to brighten up our texts could show so much about our culture?

The game is ________interesting ________ I don't want to stop playing it.

A. very；that

B. really；that

C. so；or

D. so；that

D 【解析】 so… that…引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句，結(jié)構(gòu)為：so + 形容詞/副詞 + that從句，意思為“如此的……以至于……”。該句句意為：這個游戲是如此有趣以至于我不想停止玩。根據(jù)結(jié)構(gòu)及句意，故選D。

（題文）Your mother stayed up late last night.Don't ________，please.

A. wake up her

B. wake her up

C. woke up her

D. woke her up

B 【解析】 否定祈使句的結(jié)構(gòu)為：don’t +動詞原形+其他，故排除C、D。一般情況動詞加副詞構(gòu)成的動詞短語后面加代詞作賓語，代詞要放在動詞及副詞之間。wake up是動詞加副詞構(gòu)成的動詞短語，所以代詞放中間。故選B。

When I got home, I saw my mother ________ the room.

A. cleaning B. cleans C. cleaned D. clean

A 【解析】 句意：當(dāng)我到家的時候，我看見我的媽媽正在打掃房間。cleaning現(xiàn)在分詞，正在打掃；cleans第三人稱單數(shù)形式；cleaned是過去式；clean打掃，動詞原形。句中謂語動詞是see，常用于see+賓語+賓補這樣的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)中，根據(jù)句意可知，我看見媽媽正在打掃房間，這里表示動作正在進行，故用現(xiàn)在分詞cleaning，選A。

—Hi，Carol.How was your trip to Disney World?

—Hi，Alice.Oh，we ________a good time there.

A. are having B. to have C. have D. had

D 【解析】 --嗨，Carol, 去迪士尼的旅行怎么樣？-- 嗨，Alice, 我們在那里過得很愉快。根據(jù)提問可知詢問的是過去的情況，所以回答用一般過去時態(tài)。A. are having現(xiàn)在進行時；B. to have動詞不定式；C. have一般現(xiàn)在時； D. had一般過去時，故選D。

—What did you do last Saturday?

—I ________kites with my friends.

A. fly B. flew C. is flying D. flies

B 【解析】 --上周六你做了什么？--我和我的朋友放風(fēng)箏了。根據(jù)上文提問‘What did you do last Saturday?’可知后文應(yīng)該用一般過去時回答，一般過去時的結(jié)構(gòu)為：主語+動詞過去時+其他，故選B。

Are there ________ in today's newspaper?

A. something of interesting B. interesting something

C. anything interesting D. interesting anything

C 【解析】 句意：今天的報紙上有有趣的事情嗎？some開頭的復(fù)合不定代詞一般情況用于肯定句或者委婉語氣的疑問句中，any開頭的復(fù)合不定代詞用于否定句或者疑問句中。形容詞修飾符合不定代詞放在其后。根據(jù)該句是一般疑問句，所以用anything，interesting修飾anything，應(yīng)該放在其后，故選C。

_ __is difficult for them to finish the work in two days.

A. This B. That C. He D. It
