The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girt 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 it's 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 agreed 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.

Answer the questions（根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答下列問題）

Mr Harries taught sixth-grade science. On the first day of his class, he gave us a talk about an animal called "birdcat", which died out during the Ice Age. He passed around a skull（頭骨）as he talked. We all took notes carefully and later we had a test.

When he returned my paper the next day, there was a big red "×" through each of my answers. I had failed! I had written exactly（確切地）what Mr Harries said. Then I learned that everyone in the class had failed. What had happened? Very simple, Mr Harries said he had made all that "birdcat" there had never been any such animal. So the information in our notes was incorrect. Did you think you would get good marks for incorrect answers?

We felt that wasn't fair. What kind of test was this? And what kind of teacher?

We should have found it out, Mr Harries said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the "birdcat" skull, in fact a cat's. He had told us many unbelievable things about the animal, such as the size, the colour, the strength… but none of us had questioned.

Mr Harries said he hoped we could learn something from this lesson. Teachers and textbooks are not always correct. In fact no one is. He told us not to let our minds go to sleep, and to speak up if we ever thought he or the textbook was wrong.

Up to now I haven't made any great scientific discoveries, but Mr Harries's class gave my classmates and me something just as important: to look people in the eye and tell them they are wrong.
