The signs he used were to say that he'd be running late and would be there soon.
他用的这些符号是想说他要迟到了，会尽快过来。
Instead of replying with a simple “OK, don't rush”， I searched for emojis on my phone that would express the same message：

词句自测
③“主(The signs)谓(were to say)宾(that he'd be running ... soon)”。he used是定语从句，从句省略了关系代词that或which，修饰The__signs。
This was my attempt to follow the trend of communicating with emojis.
这是我追随使用表情符号交流这一潮流的一次尝试。
Emojis are used everywhere, from text messages to emails, blogs and other social media networks.
表情符号被用在各个地方，从短信到电子邮件、博客和其他社交媒体网络。
With the rapid development of social media, emojis are becoming an integral component of the language we use to express ourselves.

The word “emoji” comes from Japanese, literally meaning “picture character”．
“emoji”一词来自日语，字面意思是“图片文字”。
Emojis are small symbols representing ideas, emotions or feelings.

They come in different categories, such as faces and people, plants and animals, and food and drink.

⑥category n. 类别
When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs.
当1999年首次在日本推出时，表情符号仅限于176种简单的设计。
Now there are more than 3，000 emojis that expand upon the way in which we communicate.
现在有3，000多个表情符号扩展成了我们交流的方式。
Due to their popularity, the Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year in 2015 was, for the first time ever, a pictographinstead of a traditional word.
由于表情符号的风靡，牛津词典2015年的年度词汇首次是一个象形图，而不是一个传统的词汇。
词句自测
⑦expand v. (使)扩大；增加
⑧pictograph n. 象形图
⑨“谓语(there are)＋主语(more than 3，000 emojis)”。there be结构是倒装句。that expand upon the way in which we communicate是定语从句，修饰emojis; in which we communicate是定语从句，修饰the__way。
In today's world, emojis have become more and more popular.
在当今世界，表情符号变得越来越受欢迎。
It seems that emojis have clear advantages over written language.
似乎表情符号比书面语言更具明显的优势。
People like them because they add emotional meaning, and are quick and easy to use.
人们喜欢它们，因为它们增添了情感含义，并且使用起来方便、快捷。

事实上，这和我们说话时使用的手势很相似。
词句自测
⑩emotional adj. 情绪(上)的，情感(上)的
gesture n. 手势，姿势
With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can “see” your facial expression while reading your words.
在信息或帖子中加上一张微笑或悲伤的脸，你的读者可以在读你的文字时“看到”你的面部表情。
Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they cannot find the appropriate words.
表情符号还能帮助人们在他们找不到合适的词语时表达他们的感受。
For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of crying faces to express your sadness over your separation.
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，来表达你对于你们将要分离的悲伤之情。
词句自测
facial adj. 脸上的；面部的
“主(your reader)谓(can ‘see’)宾(your facial expression)”。句中“with＋名词＋过去分词短语”是with复合结构作状语。while reading your words是状语从句的省略，补充完整为while your__reader__is reading your words。
The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature.
表情符号的使用甚至已经蔓延到经典文学之中。
A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare's popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis.
一部面向年轻读者的莎士比亚剧集取材于威廉·莎士比亚的流行戏剧，并用短信简写语和表情代替了一些词语。
The intention of these adaptations is to make the classics more accessible to young readers.
这些改编的目的是使经典著作更容易被年轻读者理解。
Some people, however, believe that these new versions have taken away the heart and soul of Shakespeare's plays.
然而，一些人认为这些新版本夺走了莎士比亚戏剧的精髓。
词句自测
textspeak n. 短信简写语
intention n. 意图，目的
adaptation n. 改编版
accessible adj. 易懂的
soul n. 精神
As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place.
正如我们所见，表情符号有到处冒出的趋势。
Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way in which we communicate and express ourselves.
表情符号的使用者说，它们促进了我们交流和表达我们自己的方式。
But this makes others, especially educators, worry that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word.
但这让其他人，尤其是教育工作者，担心我们正在失去使用书面语，甚至口头语进行正确沟通的能力。
词句自测
tendency n. 趋势
facilitate v. 促进；使便利
educator n. 教育工作者
“主(this)谓(makes)宾(others)＋宾补(worry that ... the spoken word)”。especially educators是others的同位语；that we ... spoken word是宾语从句；不定式短语to communicate properly作ability的后置定语；现在分词短语using ... the spoken word作方式状语。
After all, how many of us today would rather send a message packed with emojis than make a telephone call
毕竟，现在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？
Perhaps people will one day choose to communicate in pictures, and forget how to write properly.
或许人们有一天会选择用图片来交流，忘记怎样正确书写。
On that day, emojis will have become a real pictorial “language”．
到那一天，表情符号将成为真正的图画“语言”。
But, for now, maybe it's best that we just enjoy using them.
但是现在，或许我们最好还是享受使用它们吧。

Ⅰ　阅读
Two years ago, my 11 year old son sat me down for a talk. “Mom, it's time.” he said. “Hear me out: It's time we got actual TV. And you need an iPhone.”
This funny conversation two years ago marked a shift in our relationship. Perhaps for the first time, I began to really listen to my son's opinion about our home technology. Since his reasoning was sensible and his suggestions within budget, I took his advice and was pleasantly surprised with the results.
I'd known for a while that my son understands technology better than I do. On airplanes, he grabbed my phone to put it in airplane mode. He wired the speakers in our house. After something was stolen from our front yard, he picked out, set up, and now monitors our security camera. When my computer died, I took him shopping with me.
As a teenager now, he has a busy social life, with skateboarding, basketball, and online gaming with his friends. I see our time together decreasing and our shared interests shrinking. That's why I jumped at the chance when a friend mentioned writing technology reviews. I'm a writer, but I'd need a partner who has more tech knowledge than me. When I presented the idea to my teen, he immediately accepted.
It's changed our relationship in surprising ways. Where he used to get annoyed quickly at my technical ignorance, he's learned to be more patient and explain things to me in a way that I can convey to an unknowing audience. The parent child dynamic is not only changed; it's even slightly reversed—he's leading me. I'm asking him for help and advice. My son has risen to the occasion. He's taking it seriously, and to watch him mature in this way is an honor. As someone who's not much of a reader, he now searches instruction book. Without any prompting, he's even emailed and called, yes, made an actual phone call to customer service or tech support when sample products weren't working as expected.
I never imagined being a tech reviewer, but it's proved to be a valuable way to learn from, work with and enjoy time with my teen.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者与儿子之间的关系通过科技方面的事情发生了变化。
1．What did the writer think of her son's advice
A．It was unaffordable.
B．It was beyond reach.
C．It sounded reasonable.
D．It sounded surprising.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Since his reasoning ... surprised with the results.(由于他的论证合理，而且他的建议在预算范围内，我采纳了他的建议，并对结果感到惊喜。)”可知，作者觉得儿子的建议听起来很合理。故选C。
2．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3
A．Proving her son's better mastery of technology.
B．Describing their close parent child relationship.
C．Giving examples of her son's interest in airplanes.
D．Expressing her satisfaction of her son's timely help.
答案：A
解析：段落大意题。根据第三段的中心句“I'd known ... than I do.”及下文围绕这一中心句所举的例子可知，作者早就知道儿子比自己更懂技术，由此可知，本段主要证明了作者的儿子对技术更加精通。故选A。
3．Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “reversed” in Paragraph 5
A．Unrealistic. B．Opposite.
C．Negative. D．Common.
答案：B
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后“he's leading me. I'm asking him for help and advice (他在引导我。我在向他寻求帮助和建议)”及常识可知，作为母亲，作者应该是儿子的导师，给儿子指导，而现在儿子在引导作者，由此可推知，这里表达的是亲子关系的反转，reversed意为“颠倒的，相反的”，与opposite (相反的)意思相近。故选B。
4．What makes the writer feel honored
A．Her son's patience with their relationship.
B．Her son's attitudes to some unknown audiences.
C．Her son's growth and serious attitude to the work.
D．Her son's desire to change the parent child dynamic.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“My son has risen to the occasion ... is an honor.(我儿子已经应付自如了。他很认真地对待这件事，看着他以这种方式成熟是一种荣幸。)”可知，儿子的成长及对待工作认真的态度让作者感到很荣幸。故选C。
Ⅱ　完形填空
When people talk about the future, we like to think that we will be able to drive out of our garages and take to the __1__ in our own personal flying car. The advantages are obvious.

Most of us have printed out an electronic document on paper, but think about the __7__ of printing out a three dimensional object in plastic. 3D printers build an object using layers line by line like a(n) __8__ printer until the object is complete. Vehicle companies like BMW and Volkswagen already use 3D printers to make life size models of car parts. At the moment the process is slow and quality is __9__， but before long it might be possible to see a product on a website and then __10__ it to your printer at home. In the future we could make our own furniture, jewellery, cups, plates, shoes and toys from designs on our computers, and reduce the amount of __11__ we have to do.
Imagine having your own Ironman suit. There are several companies trying to build a practical robot “exoskeleton”. This is a suit of robot arms and legs which follows your __12__. It will allow the wearer to lift heavy objects, walk long distances and even punch through walls! There are __13__ military advantages for this technology and might help people to walk again after disease or injury. However, besides cost and battery life, another problem is that a badly __14__ robot suit could injure the wearer because you wouldn't want your robot leg or arm bending the __15__ way.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was twelve, my parents let me babysit for Mr and Mrs Joseph who lived down the street with their two little preschool girls. Most of my babysitting occurred during daylight hours while Mrs Joseph went shopping. One day she asked if I could stay with her daughters in the evening, promising she and her husband would be home by ten pm. After pleaded with (恳求) them, desperate to earn fifty cents an hour for six hours—three whole dollars！—my parents agreed.
At four o'clock, I knocked on the Josephs' front door, greeted the kids, and received detailed instructions from their mother. A few minutes later, the girls and I were alone. We played hide and seek, did some finger painting together, and I fixed them scrambled eggs (炒鸡蛋) and toast soldiers for dinner. Then, at about eight pm, I gathered the two kids beside me on the sofa and began to read them a story.
I heard a soft click, as if the front door had been opened, and I stopped. “Go on，” said Melanie, the four year old. “Keep reading.” “Wait.” I put my finger to my lips, “I thought I heard someone come in.” I heard the click again, and the lamp beside me switched on. All three of us jumped. Then the drapes (帘子) closed across the big window.
I screamed, put a little girl under each of my arms, and ran upstairs to the bathroom. As I locked the door behind us, I heard music begin to play from a radio somewhere downstairs. The girls clutched (紧紧抱住) each other in fear as I calmed them down, saying, “There's a bad man in the house. You have to be perfectly quiet.”
The three of us sat on the floor, ears pressed to the wooden door ... listening. Even two year old Tricia was very quiet. For two hours we listened to the music playing, but we never heard another sound. No footsteps, no creaking (嘎吱作响的) doors, or breaking of china. Definitely no one walking up the stairs.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。

写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者在12岁时为邻居Joseph (约瑟夫)夫妇家的两个小女孩做临时保姆。一天晚上，作者听到了奇怪的声音，以为有坏人进了屋子，于是带着两个女孩躲进了浴室。打开的前门让她们紧张起来，真的有坏人吗？Joseph怎样解释因为智能家居设备引起的奇怪事件呢？
[精彩范文]
Then the front door opened with a bang and we all jumped. Both girls leaped into my arms and the three of us trembled until we heard Mrs Joseph call, “Peggy Where are you？” Melanie, Tricia and I burst out of the bathroom and ran downstairs. The girls threw themselves against their astonished parents' legs, talking about “bad men in the house”. In the middle of my explanation, Mr and Mrs Joseph exchanged a look and began laughing.
Mr Joseph explained he had bought a smart home device. It could close the electric drapes and turn on a light and a radio at sunset on nights when they went out. “I guess I just switched it on automatically when we left tonight. In all honesty, I don't even remember doing it，” he explained. Mr Joseph walked me to my house. He apologized and handed me not just three dollars, but five. “Good night，” I said as he turned to walk home, “and thanks.” I was so happy. I not only made more money, but experienced a smart home in person.

Two years ago, my 11 year old son sat me down for a talk. “Mom, it's time.” he said. “Hear me out: It's time we got actual TV. And you need an iPhone.”
This funny conversation two years ago marked a shift in our relationship. Perhaps for the first time, I began to really listen to my son's opinion about our home technology. Since his reasoning was sensible and his suggestions within budget, I took his advice and was pleasantly surprised with the results.
I'd known for a while that my son understands technology better than I do. On airplanes, he grabbed my phone to put it in airplane mode. He wired the speakers in our house. After something was stolen from our front yard, he picked out, set up, and now monitors our security camera. When my computer died, I took him shopping with me.
As a teenager now, he has a busy social life, with skateboarding, basketball, and online gaming with his friends. I see our time together decreasing and our shared interests shrinking. That's why I jumped at the chance when a friend mentioned writing technology reviews. I'm a writer, but I'd need a partner who has more tech knowledge than me. When I presented the idea to my teen, he immediately accepted.
It's changed our relationship in surprising ways. Where he used to get annoyed quickly at my technical ignorance, he's learned to be more patient and explain things to me in a way that I can convey to an unknowing audience. The parent child dynamic is not only changed; it's even slightly reversed—he's leading me. I'm asking him for help and advice. My son has risen to the occasion. He's taking it seriously, and to watch him mature in this way is an honor. As someone who's not much of a reader, he now searches instruction book. Without any prompting, he's even emailed and called, yes, made an actual phone call to customer service or tech support when sample products weren't working as expected.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者与儿子之间的关系通过科技方面的事情发生了变化。
I never imagined being a tech reviewer, but it's proved to be a valuable way to learn from, work with and enjoy time with my teen.
1．What did the writer think of her son's advice
A．It was unaffordable.
B．It was beyond reach.
C．It sounded reasonable.
D．It sounded surprising.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Since his reasoning ... surprised with the results.(由于他的论证合理，而且他的建议在预算范围内，我采纳了他的建议，并对结果感到惊喜。)”可知，作者觉得儿子的建议听起来很合理。故选C。
2．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3
A．Proving her son's better mastery of technology.
B．Describing their close parent child relationship.
C．Giving examples of her son's interest in airplanes.
D．Expressing her satisfaction of her son's timely help.
解析：段落大意题。根据第三段的中心句“I'd known ... than I do.”及下文围绕这一中心句所举的例子可知，作者早就知道儿子比自己更懂技术，由此可知，本段主要证明了作者的儿子对技术更加精通。故选A。
3．Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “reversed” in Paragraph 5
A．Unrealistic. B．Opposite.
C．Negative. D．Common.
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后“he's leading me. I'm asking him for help and advice (他在引导我。我在向他寻求帮助和建议)”及常识可知，作为母亲，作者应该是儿子的导师，给儿子指导，而现在儿子在引导作者，由此可推知，这里表达的是亲子关系的反转，reversed意为“颠倒的，相反的”，与opposite (相反的)意思相近。故选B。
4．What makes the writer feel honored
A．Her son's patience with their relationship.
B．Her son's attitudes to some unknown audiences.
C．Her son's growth and serious attitude to the work.
D．Her son's desire to change the parent child dynamic.

Ⅳ　读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was twelve, my parents let me babysit for Mr and Mrs Joseph who lived down the street with their two little preschool girls. Most of my babysitting occurred during daylight hours while Mrs Joseph went shopping. One day she asked if I could stay with her daughters in the evening, promising she and her husband would be home by ten pm. After pleaded with (恳求) them, desperate to earn fifty cents an hour for six hours—three whole dollars！—my parents agreed.
At four o'clock, I knocked on the Josephs' front door, greeted the kids, and received detailed instructions from their mother. A few minutes later, the girls and I were alone. We played hide and seek, did some finger painting together, and I fixed them scrambled eggs (炒鸡蛋) and toast soldiers for dinner. Then, at about eight pm, I gathered the two kids beside me on the sofa and began to read them a story.
I heard a soft click, as if the front door had been opened, and I stopped. “Go on，” said Melanie, the four year old. “Keep reading.” “Wait.” I put my finger to my lips, “I thought I heard someone come in.” I heard the click again, and the lamp beside me switched on. All three of us jumped. Then the drapes (帘子) closed across the big window.
I screamed, put a little girl under each of my arms, and ran upstairs to the bathroom. As I locked the door behind us, I heard music begin to play from a radio somewhere downstairs. The girls clutched (紧紧抱住) each other in fear as I calmed them down, saying, “There's a bad man in the house. You have to be perfectly quiet.”
The three of us sat on the floor, ears pressed to the wooden door ... listening. Even two year old Tricia was very quiet. For two hours we listened to the music playing, but we never heard another sound. No footsteps, no creaking (嘎吱作响的) doors, or breaking of china. Definitely no one walking up the stairs.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Then the front door opened with a bang and we all jumped. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍

Then the front door opened with a bang and we all jumped. Both girls leaped into my arms and the three of us trembled until we heard Mrs Joseph call, “Peggy Where are you？” Melanie, Tricia and I burst out of the bathroom and ran downstairs. The girls threw themselves against their astonished parents' legs, talking about “bad men in the house”. In the middle of my explanation, Mr and Mrs Joseph exchanged a look and began laughing.
Mr Joseph explained he had bought a smart home device. It could close the electric drapes and turn on a light and a radio at sunset on nights when they went out. “I guess I just switched it on automatically when we left tonight. In all honesty, I don't even remember doing it，” he explained. Mr Joseph walked me to my house. He apologized and handed me not just three dollars, but five. “Good night，” I said as he turned to walk home, “and thanks.” I was so happy. I not only made more money, but experienced a smart home in person.
