Most students love using emoji and stickers when chatting online but these cartoons are not usually considered an appropriate means of communication when answering exam questions.
不少学生在网上聊天时喜欢用表情包和贴图,但在考试时,这类可爱表情可不被觉得是一种适合的交流方法。

The students had been studying how to analyze the experiences of a person using a product such as a website or computer application – theory which is becoming increasingly important as the business of app and software design booms.
学生们一直在学习怎么样用一种商品,譬如一个网页或一个计算机应用程序来剖析大家的体验,因为APP和软件设计的业务正在如火如荼,这一理论正变得愈加要紧。
Examinee Liu Xiandi, who posted the test paper online, told the Yangtse Evening Post that although his teacher had talked about the impact of sticker usage in social media applications during the class, he “never imagined his teacher would set stickers as questions”.
将这张试题传到网上的考生柳先迪在同意《扬子晚报》采访时说,尽管平常上课时老师有说过表情包在社交软件中有哪些用途,但“没想到真的会以此为考试试题”。
Lu Xiaotian was the teacher in question. He has taught the course for four years and came up with the unusual idea while seeing his students send stickers in a WeChat group.
这份试题的出题人是卢晓天老师,他教授这门课程已经四年了,当看到学生在一个群信群里发表情包时,他想出了这个不同一般的出题创意。
“This is the final test for the exhausted students. I hope this test paper can lift their spirits,” Lu said.
他讲解说,“这是最后一门考试,学生们都有的疲惫,我期望这种试题可以提振同学们的精神。”
He said stickers have close links with online product design and they commonly make people feel more at ease during interpersonal communication.
卢晓天表示,表情包和网络商品设计有关,且在网络人际交流中,善用表情包可以起到调节环境有哪些用途。
The examinees will not be assessed on their artistic skills but on whether their drawings expressed the proper meaning, Lu added.
他补充说,考生的绘画技能不会作为评判标准,只须他们的表情能表达出适合的情感即可。
