The word is carefully chosen depending on how popular it is and how well it explains the year. However, this year they didnt actually choose a word at all. Instead, they chose a “face with tears（眼泪） of joy” emoji (表情符号).This was the worlds most used emoji in 2015, according to research done by the Oxford University Press. It made up 20 percent of all emojis used in the UK and 17 percent of those used in the US.Emojis started from Japan in the 1990s. Through the years, the simple, small pictures have changed the way people communicate online. According to New Yorker magazine, a survey in 2013 showed that 74 percent of people in the US and 82 percent in China had used emojis. About 6, 000,000,000 emoji pictures are flying around the world every day through messages. Although some worry that emojis will make peoples language skills weak, fans say they are fun and help them express their feelings more easily.“Emojis are no longer just for sending messages to teenagers. Instead, they have become a kind of expression, which can cross language barriers (障碍),” Oxford Dictionaries said in a statement, explaining their uncommon choice. “Emoji culture has become so popular that emojis have their own way and stories.”Some even think emojis can take the place of words.

Here are some rules to live by if you want to be fit. Follow them most of the time, though on some days（like your birthday）, you might still call for cake and ice cream. 59 . You may have your favorite food, but the best choice is to eat all of them. If you eat different foods, youre more likely to get what your body needs. Some kids may hate vegetables, but they do help you keep fit. Lets take tomatoes as an example. What is your favourite way to eat tomatoes? Do you enjoy them raw, red and juicy in a salad? Or do you prefer them cooked on a pizza or in a soup or sauce？No matter how you eat them，they are good for you. But people have not always enjoyed tomatoes. It wasnt until the 16 century that people in Europe started to eat them. Now each American eats an average of 22 pounds of tomatoes per year! 60 . Kids need milk. Thats why your school cafeteria offers milk. Kids need calcium（钙）to build strong bones, and there is a lot of it within milk. How much do kids need? If you are younger than 16 years old, drink 2 cups of milk a day. 61 . Try to be an active kid. Try to find out your favourite activities. Not everyone loves basketball or football. Maybe your passion is karate（空手道）or dancing. Find ways to be active every day, especially when your mum and dad say its time to stop watching TV or playing computer games. Oh! Speaking of（说到）parents, they can be a big help if you want to be fit: they can offer you healthy food and plan activities for the family. Teach them a thing or two of the rules. If youre a fit kid, why shouldnt you have fit parents? 八、回答问题阅读表达My name is Jackson. I remember almost everything I read. But I dont like to speak in class. When Mr. Knoll asked us to do an oral (口头的) book report, the idea of having my classmates looking at me filled me with nervousness.But since Mr. Knoll gave us a month to get the report ready, I thought I had plenty of time.Finally, I chose Fire-Hunter by Jim Kjelgaard. I read the first few pages and then I threw it away. Then the book got buried in the clutter (杂物) in my room.When I realized the date of the book report was only a week away, I was in a fear. I raced home and found the book. Trembling (颤抖), I turned to the book and discovered there were 218 pages! I read like crazy.The last day came. When Mr. Knoll called on me to give my report. I still had eighty pages to go. The class looked sorry for me when I pulled myself forward. They could see my fear. “My book is Fire-H
