When first (1)introduced(introduce) in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs. Now there are more than 3, 000 emojis that expand upon the way in (2)which we communicate.

Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they cannot find the appropriate words.

名著悦读·素养培优
Jane Eyre(excerpt)
I woke up to find the doctor lifting me very carefully into my own bed. It was good to be back in my familiar bedroom, with a warm fire and candle-light. It was also a great relief to recognize Dr Lloyd, who Mrs Reed called in for her servants(she always called a specialist for herself and the children). He was looking after me so kindly. I felt he would protect me from Mrs Reed. He talked to me a little, and then gave Bessie orders to take good care of me. When he left, I felt very lonely again.
But I was surprised to find that Bessie did not scold me at all. In fact she was so kind to me that I became brave enough to ask a question.
“Bessie, what’s happened Am I ill ”
“Yes, you became ill in the red room, but you’ll get better, don’t worry, Miss Jane, ” she answered. Then she went next door to fetch another servant. I could hear her whispers.
“Sarah, come in here and sleep with me and that poor child tonight. I daren’t stay alone with her, she might die. She was so ill last night! Do you think she saw a ghost Mrs Reed was too hard on her, I think. ”So the two servants slept in my room, while I lay awake all night, trembling with fear, and eyes wide open in horror, imagining ghosts in every corner.
Fortunately I suffered no serious illness as a result of my terrible experience in the red room, although I shall never forget that night. But the shock left me nervous and depressed for the next few days. I cried all day long and although Bessie tried hard to tempt me with nice things to eat or my favourite books, I took no pleasure in eating or even in reading. I knew I had no one to love me and nothing to look forward to.
When the doctor came again, he seemed a little surprised to find me looking so miserable. “Perhaps she’s crying because she couldn’t go out with Mrs Reed in the carriage this morning, ” suggested Bessie. “Surely she’s more sensible than that, ” said the doctor, smiling at me. “She’s a big girl now. ”“I’m not crying about that. I hate going out in the carriage. ”I said quickly. “I’m crying because I’m miserable. ”
“Oh really, Miss ”said Bessie.
The doctor looked at me thoughtfully. He had small, grey, intelligent eyes. Just then a bell rang for the servants’ dinner.
“You can go, Bessie, ” he said. “I’ll stay here talking to Miss Jane till you come back. ”
After Bessie had left, he asked, “What really made you ill ”
“I was locked up in a room with a ghost, in the dark. ”
“Afraid of ghosts, are you ”he smiled.
“Of Mr Reed’s ghost, yes. He died in that room, you know. Nobody ever goes in there any more. It was cruel to lock me in there alone without a candle. I shall never forget it! ”

4. 过去进行时的被动语态的特殊疑问句为: 疑问词+was/were(+主语)+being+ done

*This film was being shown at ten last night.
昨晚十点这部电影正在被放映。

过去分词随其后, 过去被动进行已确定。
【知识延伸】
过去进行时的被动语态的注意事项:
(1)判断是否用过去进行时的被动语态首先要看语境是不是过去的语境, 其次要看主语和谓语动词之间是不是被动关系, 最后要看谓语动词的动作是否正在进行。
(2)要注意主谓一致。即当主语是单数时用was being done, 当主语是复数时用were being done。

I believe I can ② touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar

I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Hey, ’cause I believe in me
If I can see it
Then I can do it
If I just believe it
There’s nothing to it
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and ④ fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Hey, if I just ⑤ spread my wings
I can fly
I can fly
I can fly, hey
If I just spread my wings
I can fly

译文:
我相信我能飞翔
我原以为我无法坚持下去
生命只不过是首忧郁的歌
但现在我明白了真爱的含义
找到了可以永久依靠的臂膀
只要我能看见希望, 我就能成功
如果我相信我能行
那就没有什么不可以
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能触到天空
日日夜夜, 我想象这一幕
展翅高飞
我相信我能高飞
我看见我穿过那敞开的生命之门
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能飞翔
看, 我在崩溃堕落的边缘
有时沉默也能震耳欲聋
生命中很多奇迹等我去实现
但我知道要实现奇迹
就必须先从我做起
如果我能看见希望
我就能成为那个我想成为的人
如果我相信我能行
那就没有什么不可以
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能触到天空
日日夜夜, 我想象这一幕
展翅高飞
我相信我能高飞
我看见我穿过那敞开的生命之门
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能飞翔
因为我相信我能行
如果我能看见希望
我就能成功
如果我相信我能行
那就没有什么不可以
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能触到天空
日日夜夜, 我想象这一幕
展翅高飞
我相信我能高飞
我看见我穿过那敞开的生命之门
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能飞翔
我相信我能飞翔
只要我张开自己的翅膀
我就可以飞翔
我可以飞翔
我可以飞翔
只要我张开自己的翅膀
我就可以飞翔
