3.能对热点话题进行深度思考。

Recently,you may have noticed yourWeChatMoments feed being filled with pictures of a wise-looking frog.

With captions图说like, “My frog has been gone for more than 24 hours.I’m getting worried.” It’d be easy to mistake this video game animal for a real one.

However,the images are from Japanese mobile gameTravel Frog,orTabikaeru.

Travel Frogis a simple game,yet it’s managed to go around among young Chinese people,especially females.You fill the frog’s backpack with a lunch box,a lucky charm幸运符,and some travel gear旅行装备,and then send it on its way.

While the frog’s gone,all there is to do is wait for it to return home.

So why exactly is this game so popular?The answer could lie in the current trend of“Buddha-style佛系的youth”,with many turning to a slow and relaxed lifestyle.

“It’s like the life of a monk和尚who lives life following his heart,”30-year-old Ge Yuan from Shanghai,a fan of the game,toldChina Daily.

“It’s not a game that you will get obsessed上瘾的with,as there is no ranking list among players,”addedTongjiUniversity student Yuan Linghuan.

Given the large amounts of stress that young Chinese people face,the pursuit of an easy life makes sense.

But some believe that although taking time out to relax is good for us,we shouldn’t let our love for this mysterious animal take over our lives.

“Don’t become a lonely frog-raising youth,” wrotePeople’s Dailyon itsSina Weiboaccount.“Cherishevery moment and respect each minute of your life.”

So while it’s nice to have something to care for,just don’t forget to take care of yourresponsibilitiesin the real world too—at least while you’re waiting for your frog to return from itsadventure.

Step 4 提升·素养建构

咬文品句,精雕细琢

1.Recently,you may have noticed yourWeChatMomentsfeedbeing filled with pictures of a wise-looking frog.

【赏析】此处,feed怎样理解呢?

请看 《中国日报》的报道:On Sunday night,manyWeChatusers found in theirWeChatMoments news feed an update from a new yet long-awaited friend—advertisement.The news feed ads looks like a regular update from your friends,but with a small “Sponsored” button in the top right corner.

周日晚上,很多微信用户发现他们的微信朋友圈信息流里出现了一个期盼已久的新朋友——广告。信息流广告看起来像是朋友们的普通更新,但其右上角有一个小的“推广”按钮。信息流广告,可以用news feed ads表示,信息流即news feed。

2.Recently,you may have noticed yourWeChatMoments feedbeing filled withpictures of a wise-looking frog.(Para.1)

With captions like,“My frog has been gone for more than 24 hours.I’m_ getting_ worri_ed.” It’d be easy to mistake this video game animal for a real one.(Para.2)

请关注画线句所用的时态哦。

【赏析】时态的巧妙之处在于可以传达文本很多深层的意义。第一句,have noticed为谓语部分;yourWeChatMoments feed意为 “微信圈信息流”;being filled withpictures of a wise-looking frog为宾语补足语,表明微信圈信息流的状态,是一直被一个模样明智青蛙的很多图片充斥着。being filled with非常生动。第二句,“I’m getting worried,”此句中用正在进行时,表达越来越焦虑了,传神。
