We all know that life without emojis would be extremely boring.Therefore,it is only fitting that the editors of the well-known oxford English Dictionary chose —the face with the tears of joy as its‘Word of the Year’for2015. The company that announced its unusual word choice on November 16th said that it was picked over several other traditional choices.Among them were‘refugee’,‘sharing economy’and‘on fleek’.However,it was this simple emoji that resonated(共鸣)with the editors because it appeared to best describe the spirits,mood,and concerns of 2015.They also thought that this was a good year to pay honor to the emoji. For though they have been around since the late 1990’s,the use of the digital signs and the word that describes them,has increased sharply this year.Besides,emojis are now used by people of all ages,not just teenagers.
Also,though the word comes from the Japanese language—e(picture),moji(character or letter),the digital signs can be understood by everyone regardless of the language they speak.Therefore it only makes sense to acknowledge their importance to global communication.
As to how they selectedfrom the thousands of emojis that are available,the company says that they partnered with a leading mobile technology company SwifiKey to determine the most popular emoji.It turns out that‘tears of joy’is the most used icon.According to SwiffKey,made up 17%of all emojis used in the U.S.A and a surprising 20% inthe United Kingdom!Though this is the first time the Oxford University Press has selected an image for its‘word of the year’.it is not the first time they have tried to combine modem lingo(术语)into their 150-year-old publication.In 2013,in recognition of the growing popularity of self-portraits,the editors selected‘selfie,’for the‘Word of the Year’!
24.Why does the author say the word choice is“unusual”?
A.Because it is not actually a word.
B.Because it cannot be pronounced.
C.Because there was no new word.
D.Because it appeared in the late 1990’S.
25.The Oxford Dictionary picked the emoji because______.
A.it focused on the development of the language.
B.it reflected the happiness of the English Language.
C.it was simple compared with words and expressions

26.We can know from Paragraph 4 that_____.
A.the emoji is frequently used among teenagers

In the dead of night,just how did the British Air Force man age to gun down German aircraft during World War II? Eating carrots was the key to the pilots’success,according to the U.K.Ministry of Food.The root vegetable is rich in beta-carotene(胡萝卜素)that nourishes the eye.
Decades later rumors(传言)spread that the British Royal Air Force pushed that message as a cover-up for the recently adopted radar technology they were secretly relying on for their nighttime battles.Yet the question remains:Are carrots truly able to improve eyesight? The answer is yes,under certain conditions,eating carrots will benefit eyesight.
“The body uses beta-carotene to make vitamin A,and Vitamin A is really important,”says Emily Chew,director at the National Eye Institute.“Vitamin A helps the eye turn light into a signal that can be sent to the brain,allowing people to see under conditions of low light.In addition,the cornea(the clear front of the eye)can disappear if the body does not get enough vitamin A.Every year 250,000 to 500,000 children become blind as a result of lacking vitamin A.Supplements(补充)of the vitamin or beta-carotene have been shown to improve night sight.”
Most studies have so far looked at the benefits of beta-carotene or vitamin A supplements,not carrots specifically.One study in 2015 showed all the foods performed roughly the same,although the vitamin A supplement did best of a11.The study found that a regular diet of the cooked carrots for six weeks helped to bring women’s response to darkness to normal levels.In western nations about 30 percent of vitamin A comes from beta-carotene but in some developing countries it is the only source of vitamin A.
When it comes to eating proper foods to improve eyesight,more generally,experts suggest stocking up on green,leafy vegetables could help protect your eyes.Such foods may also help to protect against blindness in the elderly.
32.What does“that message”in the second paragraph refer to?

B.Radar technology was well covered up.

D.People are encouraged to take more vegetables.
33.According to Emily Chew,vitamin A________.
A.can help send light
B.can improve night vision
C.will cause cornea’s disappearing
D.will easily change into beta-carotene
34.From the text ,we learn_______________.
A.eating carrots can’t really help improve your sights
B.all foods except carrots perform the same in improving eyesight
C.eating more green,leafy vegetables can prevent the sight failing in the elderly
D.it is clear how many carrots would be needed to make best night vision
35.Where does this text probably come from?
