According to a professor in the UK, emojis(表情符號) are developing faster than any other language in Britain. These images(圖案) first appeared in Japanese mobile phones in the 1990s and are now very popular.

Why do we love them so much?

We really seem to like “big red heart” emojis! But why? They let us have fun and make people laugh. In the UK, the most-used emojis are “face with tears of joy”, and “l(fā)ove heart”.

Emojis also play a role in promoting diversity(多樣性) and representation(代表性).

Emojis now come in five different skin colors to represent different countries. There is also an emoji of a woman wearing a headscarf, which came out after a German teenager campaigned(發(fā)起運動) for an emoji to represent her.

What is the future of emojis?

Are emojis developing so quickly that they will soon compete with English as a global(全球的) language? Or is technology changing so fast that emojis will die after the next big thing comes along? Even technology and language experts have different opinions on emojis. What do you think? I think we should keep our eyes open for new developments!

Things You Can Do To Help The Environment.

The biggest use of home energy is for cooling and heating. So turn up your air conditioner and turn down the heat, especially at night.

Replace regular light bulbs with fluorescent bulbs (熒光燈), which use less energy.

Cars are getting bigger, even 5 meters long. They burn more gas and increase problems with acid rain and air pollution. So try to walk, bicycle, or use public transportation. This can save more gas and reduce pollution.

Each American throws away an average (平均)of 10 kilograms of trash every day. Reduce waste before you buy by thinking it carefully: Do I need it? Is it something I can only use once? Buy products that you can use over and over again.

Showers use a lot of water. In one week, a typical American family uses as much water as a person drinks in 3 years! Buy a special “l(fā)ow-flow” showerhead or take shorter showers. This can cut water use in half.
