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.

　　然而，上周五，位于中国东部南京信息工程大学打破了这一传统，它要求学生在“用户体验与心理”科目的期末考试试卷上画出人们在社交媒体中常用的表情图片，以表达出心情。

　　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.

　　学生们一直在学习如何用一种产品，比如一个网页或一个计算机应用程序来分析人们的体验，由于APP和软件设计的业务正在蓬勃发展，这一理论正变得越来越重要。

　　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”.

　　将这张试卷传到网上的考生柳先迪(音)在接受《扬子晚报》采访时说，尽管平时上课时老师有说过表情包在社交软件中的作用，但是“没想到真的会以此为考题”。

　　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.

　　这份试卷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，他想出了这个不同寻常的出题创意。

　　“This is the final test for the exhausted students. I hope this test paper can lift their spirits,” Lu said.

　　他解释说，“这是最后一门考试，学生们都有些疲惫，我希望这种试卷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，表情包和互联网产品设计相关，且在互联网人际沟通中，善用表情包可以起到调节氛围的作用。

　　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，只要他们的表情能表达出适当的情感即可。
