20、e little English, and they thought “VACANCIES” meant “holidays”, because the Spanish word for “holidays” is “vacaciones”. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said “VACANCIES”, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said “NO VACANCIES”

21、, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full.

28、ed in cell phone text messages. Text messages (also called SMS2) 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

29、 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.

30、l keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so its common to make words shorter.

31、ing 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.

38、eting for the same things, like good jobs. They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog. This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog-tired.
