Music Manners (礼仪)
You probably know you should say "please" and "thank you" at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library.
Keep it down! You have to notice the volume (音量) of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry.
You need to know when to turn your MP3 player off and put it away. Libraries and schools don't allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums. They don't have rules, but it would be rude (粗鲁的) to have your MP3 player on.
Take one out! Once in a while it's OK just to take out one earphone. Imagine you are listening to music on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. , and you can still tell him the way with one earphone, and then put it back and continue listening to your music. You can also do this when you order food at a fast food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it's not for you.
In a word, you can decide what the best music manners are.
The Internet nowadays opens a wide world to people, including teenagers, but many parents worry that their children may meet with something unhealthy when searching online. In order to solve this problem, a new search engine for children called Kiddle has appeared.
Search results are filtered(过滤),so only safe website are shown and descriptions are written in simple language. Searches with bad words are shut off, too.
Kiddles uses the same colors as Google in its logo and a similar design on its homepage, too—with an extra robot picture.
The top three Kiddle search results show safe websites and pages written specially for kids, and those websites and pages are well chosen and checked by Kiddle developers.
The fourth to seventh results will be safe and trusted websites that are not written specially for kids, but have content written in a simple way. These results are also chosen and checked.
Results on the eighth and owwards pages are safe and famous websites that are written for adults. They provide expert content, but are harder for kids to understand.
Unlike on Google, most results appear along with large thumbnail pictures(缩略图)to make it easier for children to find what they are looking for. For example, when searching for "meow meow". Google produces pages for information about a drug(毒品)that has "meow meow" as its nickname(绰号),but Kiddle lists information only about cats, even with some cartoon pictures.
The company explained, "Websites which appear in Kiddle search results satisfy family-friendly requirements, as we filter websites with unhealthy content."
