名师解析：苏州高三期末英语作文

在讲解作文时，建议使用“慢镜头”，复盘考场实战作文的来龙去脉，总结答题经验和教训，丰富与话题相关的多种表达。 

1．题干给出材料的出处：

给出材料的话题是emij（表情符号），选自外媒The Huffington Post一篇标题为Are Emoticons And Emojis Destroying Our Language? 网址是https://www./joan-gage/emoticons-and-emojis-destroying-our-language_b_7950460.html 

2．背景知识

作文话题emij（表情符号）是考生们熟悉的话题，大家都有话说，问题是如何组织语言，如何做到与众不同。Emij and other visual representations of language have become a part of the way many people communicate today.

鼓励学生用简洁的语言给emij下一个定义，英语表达水平不够的学生，可以用中文来下定义，做一个过渡；许多学生英语作文的最大问题不是英文表达水平低，二是中文思维混乱，前言不搭后语。

在日常交流中，考生们经常使用emij（表情符号），但很少对它的前世今生进行一个系统的思考。对于熟悉的事物，人们越是take it for granted. 通过下定义，拉远观察的镜头，增加一点陌生感，可以有效培养学生的英语思维能力。

表情符号的中文定义：用卡通表情、手势、食物等来生动呈现和描摹日常面对面交际中的非言语信息，使双方如闻其声，如见其人。 

填空题参考答案：convey; barriers; interpret; via

4．摘要写作

首先，找出或概括给出阅读材料的三个段落的主要观点和事实：

第一段的中心句是现成的，是段首句：With the development of technology, various means of communication have entered our lives.

此外，第一段中还有一个重要事实也值得一提：A classic was translated into picutures (emojis).

第二段只有一句话和一幅图，是第一段的补充说明，可以忽略。

第三段是一个调查结果分析，是第一段主要观点的一个论证，从82%，83%，57%等多个数据中，可以概括出：人们在日常交流冲广泛使用表情符号：Emojis are popular; they are widely used in people’s everyday communication.与第一段的中心句相似。

填空题参考答案：advancements; finance

5. 赞成emojis流行现象及其理由

在讲评时，多鼓励学生发表自己的看法，并帮助他们在同一个范畴内罗列论据。支持emojis流行现象的论据有：

• Emojis convey moods and psychological states quickly and effectively. Emoji enable you to give your message a precise tone. Sometimes plain text can be seen as cold or even arrogant. Adding an emoji can better convey the feeling you want to express: sympathy,happiness, humor etc.

• Emoji are fun. You can create your own emoji text messages, and some people are really good at using their imagination to include emoticons in their stories.

• Some emoji are universal. If you don’t speak very well a language, you can use emojis to make yourself understood.

• They can help avoid misunderstandings. Following up a text with a smiling emoji can indicate that the message sender is being playful or that the statement should be taken as a joke. In fact, studies show that including a smiley face in an email can reduce negative interpretations. （节选自《高分作文36课》）

参考答案：represent; communicate; precise; express; include; understood; backgrounds

6.反对emojis流行现象及其理由

鼓励学生换个角度思维，提出自己的观点，寻找论据，并自圆其说。支持反对emojis流行的理由包括：

• Many emojis are unclear and confusing. Different persons can have different interpretations of the meaning of a particular emoji. This can lead to some misunderstandings.

• They look informal in many situations. Using too many emojis for texting can be seen as childish behavior. Some people value proper sentences and good grammar,especially if the conversation is about something important.

• The expressive power of emoji is limited. If you write only with emoji, you will not be able to express ideas with the same precision as with words, even if there are more and more emojis available.

• Using emoji might also be just a trend and we may be quickly tired of it, the same as with so many trends before. Only time will tell.  （节选自《高分作文36课》）

参考答案：misunderstanding; informal; tired

7. 文章的结尾

尽管题干中的写作任务没有这一项，不是考上要记得补上，主要内容一般是总结 号召。

范文的赞成版本：Emojis are useful therefore inevitable. So stop being cynical and come join us in embracing the future.

范文的反对版本：Therefore, we should limit the use of emojis in our communication. Young people should be warned against the danger emojis might bring to them.

9. 范文的答案：

Possible version one（赞成）: 

Emojis have found their way into our phones, computers and lives. They have become so trendy that someone even translated an English classic into an emoji version, which was accepted by a library.

I think the use of emojis is probably the start of an exciting new era in communication and we should welcome it. When I send messages to my friends,emojis are necessary parts. I often use emojis to emphasize something, or to soften the tone. I find these “picture words” very helpful, for they can bring out my meaning and real intention much better and faster in written context than I ever could using just words. They are to written texts what facial expressions are to face-to-face interactions. Without emojis, you could easily run into misunderstanding. Emojis facilitate efficient communications.

Emojis are useful therefore inevitable. So stop being cynical and come join us in embracing the future. 

Possible version two（反对）:

Emojis have found their way into our phones, computers and lives. They have become so trendy that someone even translated an English classic into an emoji version, which was accepted by a library.

Despite the seemingly wide appeal of emojis, I think emojis are ruining the English language. Emojis do offer a short cut to communication; with a tiny, cute picture you might save the painful efforts of wording. However, no pains no gains. This ease and comfort emojis offer may well lead to laziness and in the long run, undermine our ability of proper grammar and spelling, even resulting in illiteracy, with younger generations especially at stake. Emojis may seem funky but are sure informal. You should never hesitate to avoid themin formal context.

Therefore, we should limit the use of emojis in our communication. Young people should be warned against the danger emojis might bring to them.
