Di d you know? The word" emoji" comes from Japanese. It means ……picture character". And it was just added to Oxford Dictionaries in 2013.
When you feel happy, you use a smiling face. When you agree, you send a thumbs-up. We have never used emojis while messaging our friends as much as we do today. That might be why Oxford Dictionaries chose the “face with tears of joy" emoji as their “World of the Year 2015.”
“ Emojis are no longer just for texting teenagers. Instead, they have been made into a form of expression which can cross language barriers (障碍) , " Oxford Dictionaries said.“Emoji culture has become so popular that characters have their own trends and stories.”
The "face with tears of joy" was the world's most used emoji in 2015, according to are search from the Oxford University Press.
Japan made emoji in the 1990s. They have become increasingly popular through the years. Every day, about 6 billion emoji pictures are flying around the world through mobile messaging apps. Young people especially love it. 72 percent of 18-t0 25-year-olds find it easier to express their feelings with an emoji rather than through the written word, according to a survey by TalkTalk, a London based mobile phone company.
Not everyone thinks emojis are a good thing. Writer Jonathan, for example, says emojis will reduce people's language skills. He thinks people will get lazier by using more emojis. But Professor Evans disagrees. He thinks that emojis are great for communication. "It is not lazy to naturally look for more efficient (有效的) ways to communicate with others," he said.

Language changes over time. Many words and expressions have changed over the centuries.
61 It is a rare （稀有的）example in the English language. The meaning and usage of “friend" has stayed unchanged for hundreds of years
Well, that is until 2005. That was when the social website Facebook started using the word as a verb. Now, you can "friend" someone or "unfriend" them. However, using friend as a verb only works when talking about Facebook. 62
But for now, the co rrect word for making friends is the verb “befriend" For example, you
can use a sentence like, “She befriended many Korean students while living in China. "
Speaking of making friends, it is easy to be friendly when things are going well for you.
63 Maybe you lose your job? When you run into real trouble and need real help, you quickly learn who your real friends are. In American English, we often use the saying, “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” When you are in need, the person who helps yo u through the difficult times is,
indeed, a friend.
The words “tight" and "thick" are often used to describe really strong friendship. A good friend will see you through“thick and thin". 64
Some people get along so well, as if they were made to be together. These days Americans might say “they go together like 6 milk and cookies'." But if you do not get along with someone then you are like “oil and water". 65

七、One possible version: Dear Li Lei,
I?ve known about your worries. Here is some advice for you.
Firstly, when haze weather happens, it?s better not to do exercise outdoors. If you need to exercise, you can choose some indoor activities.
Secondly, haze often gets thinner after the sun shines. So the time from 10 am to 4 pm is a good time to exercise in winter. You can do some outdoor activities during this time when haze is not so serious.
Last but not least, improving your health is also important. Live a healthier life, like eating more fruit and vegetables, and you will have more energy to fight against haze.
I hope my advice can help you.
Yours,
