26、   You’ve probably never seen a movie quite like this one. Loving Vincent is the world’s first hand-painted animated movie. It is made fully with paintings. Every scene was created using oil paint on canvas(画布). Twelve frames(画面) were painted just to show one second of the movie. It took more than 100 artists seven years to complete it.

The movie has gotten good reviews since it came out on the Chinese mainland on Dec. 8. Its box office  has reached over $20 million(132.43 million yuan) worldwide, according to Variety.

The film tells the story of the final months of famous Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890). The story is told through his paintings and the characters in them. It shows his death as being part of a murder mystery, as Hollywood Reporter said.

A young man named Armand Roulin serves as both detective and storyteller. A year after the death of Vincent van Gogh, Armand is instructed by his father, Postman Joseph Roulin, to personally send a letter to Vincent’s brother, Theo. Armand travelled across Europe to the town where Vincent spent his final months. When he finds that Theo has died of a disease shortly after his brother, he visits several important people in Van Gogh’s life to find out the truth behind his death. But each person tells a different story.

There are many examples of the artist’s work in the movie. It shows over 120 of his paintings, such as The Night Café, Wheat field With Crows, and The Starry Night. It’s no wonder Empire Magazine called it “ one of the most beautiful films ”.

The real-life letters that Van Gogh wrote to his brother are shown as well. The movie lets you see the real Vincent van Gogh in a different way.

【4】Which of the following might be the review of the film?

The rise of the Emoji(表情符号)

Happy, angry, amazed－these are some of the emotions we like to express these days when we’re sending a message on our mobile phones. We’re also using them as a quick way of telling someone how we’re f【1】. Yes, emojis have become a very important tool for communication.

Let’s clear one thing up first－there are emojis and emoticons. The latter are little images which are made using normal keys on a keyboard. For example, a colon(冒号), two dots, followed by a close bracket(右括号) is a “smiley face”. But as technology has improved, many images have been created and they can be simply a【2】to your messages, which is great!

The emoji was first invented in Japan in the late 1990s and the word “emoji” comes from the Japanese words for “picture” and “character”. The number of different images has greatly i【3】 since then. Now we have a picture of every mood or situation.

Another a【4】 of emojis is that they are an international language－they don’t use word but tell a message in pictorial form so they can be e【5】 translated whatever your native language is. However, the emojis you send need some thought as they can sometimes be misunderstood. If a friend sends you an emoji of a hammer(锤), you may think he is angry when really he is s【6】he has hurt!

But as Linguist Neil Cohn says, “To many, emojis are an exciting development of the way we communicate; to others, they are linguistic decline(语言的衰退).” It shows there is a lot more to our communication than words a【7】, but does this mean the decline in traditional writing?
