Tens of thousands of years ago, before the development of written languages, ancient humans drew pictures of animals on cave walls and decorated them with markings, which appear to have been an early form of symbolic communication. Flash forward to today. Communicating in images and symbols seems to be coming back in a big way. The difference is that we're tapping the screens of our smartphones to summon forth tiny digital images and icons to express various meanings. Since the first emoji was created in 1999, emojis have become so popular and < underlined word > ubiquitous< /underlined word > that they're used more than 5 billion times each day on social platforms. Emojis have become so much a part of the modern discourse that linguistics scholars recently came together at Stanford University to ponder how little human communication is affected. At an event earlier this year, an executive from a mobile phone maker even proclaimed that emojis actually are replacing words, and that images are becoming the new mode of expression. Indeed, in the United Kingdom, teachers are utilizing emojis to help children make sense of Shakespeare's plays, while scientists want to develop an emoji for warning people about earthquakes. That has led some to wonder if we're regressing back to the sort of pictorial, symbolic communication style that ancient humans used. But one expert in visual communication says that isn't likely to happen. Dr. Neil Cohn, the author of the book < underlined word > The Visual Language of Comics< /underlined word >, said that he didn't see the use of emojis as a regression to the sort of communication that existed before written language. "In fact, it's a bit demeaning to the graphic domain to think that drawing falls at a more evolutionary basic level on the communicative ladder," he said. "Because of historical circumstances, we've come to think of bare written language as the norm, and also transport that notion to speaking (as if speech alone was communication). This has never been the case. In a speech, we gesture when we talk, and those gestures play an essential role in our communication." 68)What does the writer mean by "communicating in images and symbols seems to be coming back in a big way"? A. The images and symbols we create are more complicated.B. We can convey far more meanings by using emojis.C. We have more emojis than pictures drawn by ancient humans.D. The tools we use to create emojis are more advanced. 69)What does the underlined word "ubiquitous" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Unique.B. Superficial.C. Significant.D. Universal. 70)Why did linguistics scholars get together at Stanford University?A. To discuss the influence of emojis on communication.B. To decide if emojis are a new mode of expression.C. To proclaim emojis actually are replacing words.D. To reflect on the utilization of emojis in daily life. 71)What makes people wonder that we're going back to the symbolic communication style?A. The concern of emojis in the linguistic circle.B. The practical use of emojis in many fields.C. The use of emojis for scientific purposes.D. The application of emojis in British literature.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
