If you tell others you are from the 1980s generation, probably you are not as cool as you might have expected. The cool kids today, or the so called “Post-90s” generation, have become much “cooler” than the 1980s’ group, as they can speak “Martian (火星的) languages”, an even more difficult language created by themselves.

　　 Mrs. Li, the mother of a 15-year-old girl, got worried recently, because she could hardly understand what her daughter was writing in her blog (博客). She said, “My daughter likes talking with her friends on the computer. I want to know what they are talking about, but I can’t understand what they are writing on the computer. They use Chinese, English, numbers and pictures. Sometimes I asked her, ‘Do your friends know the meaning of them?’ She said, ‘Yes, they do. Many of my friends talk with the language. It’s our powerful secret tool which parents and teachers cannot figure out at all.

　　 A 14-year-old boy said, “The students in my class often use ‘Martian language’ to communicate. It can help us hide our secrets from our parents or teachers.”

Some people say “Martian language” is good, but some people say it is not good. What do you think?
