B4, we used 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF&. 3 kds FTE,The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages Text messages (also called SMS) through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called texting.A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small key pad of a cell phone is difficult, so its common to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like r for are, u for you, and-2 for two. Several letters can also represent a phrase, like lol for laughing out loud. Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling please as pls.Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing in that way was more comfortable for her. (The essay said, My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face. )Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always develop, and this is just another way in which English is changing. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past.（1）What is the writers opinion of text messaging? A . The writer does not give his opinions.B . It is not bad for children.C . It will make children bad writers.D . It is fun and easy to do.（2）Which characteristic of texting is NOT described in the passage? A . Using letters to represent words.B . Using phrases to represent essays.C . Using letters to represent phrases.D . Using numbers to represent words.（3）Why do some people think that texting is bad? A . It costs too muchB . Its too difficult to type.C . Teenagers wont learn to write correctly.D . Its not comfortable.（4）Why arent some people worried about the effect of texting? A . Not many people use texting.B . Spelling in English is too difficult.C . Teenagers quickly become bored with textingD . Texting will disappear because of new technology.（5）Which is the best title for the passage? A . TextingB . A text message.C . A bad thing.D .
