Have you ever shown your photos on your favorite social media(媒体)? Or have you expressed your feelings and emotions on your online page? If yes, do you know what you have posted on the social medias can cause problems you could not expect?

Cathy, who is going to be fifteen, posted online an invitation to her birthday party with her address in it. And guess what! 500 people came to the party, and some even broke the windows and plants, making a total mess of the house. The girl's birthday party turned into a nightmare(噩梦).

Many teenagers(青少年)think they know everything about social media, and that such a thing could never happen to them. Studies show that each year more than three million young people in the world get into trouble because of their online activities.

So do remember these if you really want to share something online.

Share with care! Not everyone will like what you write online. Think before you post anything. You never know who sees your texts, pictures or videos. Before clicking "post", you should ask yourself, "How will I feel if my family or teachers see this?" and "How might this post be bad for me in five or ten years from now?"

Be polite when you write! Imagine someone is unfriendly in real life. The same is true of online communication. No one likes it when you "shout" in your messages. If you feel angry or frustrated while you're writing a message. Read it again later and then send it.

Protect and respect! Never share your passwords with anyone. It's not wise to post your home or email address online. Don't say bad things about people. If you get messages like that or see them online, talk to your parents or your teachers.

I'd say none of these things promises 100% online safety, but each will help you to be safer.

 阅读下面材料,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

How do blind people get around safely? Some people use special guide dogs. A well-trained dog knows how to help its owner cross busy streets and get from place to place. Some people use long white canes(手杖)to help them get around. 

Guide dogs and canes are helpful, but there must be a better way for blind people to get around. A scientist in England thought so. His name is Waters and he studies bats(蝙蝠). He knows that bats are able to fly in the dark. Besides, he knows that bats go by using sound to "see". Dr. Waters wondered if people could do something similar. 

Bats make sounds as they fly. These sounds travel in waves(波)in the air. When the waves hit an object such as a tree or house, they bounce back(反射回来). The waves travel back to the bat's ears. A bat learns the location and shape of objects around it. 

Dr. Waters talked to other scientists, including Withington from America and Hoyle from Germany. They worked together and invented a new kind of cane. They called it a "bat cane" because their idea started with bats. The new cane has a computer in the handle(手柄).  ▲  The sound waves hit objects and echoes(回声)back. This causes the handle to make sounds, which humans can hear. 

With a little training, a person using the cane can easily tell where objects are and can "see" with sound!

" Am I an'I' person or an 'E' person?" It is a popular topic among young people around China today. Many people are crazy about it so that they take a personality test named MBTI to find out the answer.

Many people find the test useful. It groups people into 16 types, which start with the letter"I"or" E", such as" ENTJ" and"INFP"." E" is short for" Extroversion" while"I" is short for" Introversion". After testing, some say," I'm extroverted; I should go to parties and make friends," while others think," I'm introverted; I prefer working alone, and maybe I' ll be a writer someday." They believe knowing their type can help them make quicker choices about activities, careers, and life paths.

However, there are some problems with the test. Some get different results when they retake it, and some find it hard to answer certain questions. For example," I like watching TV alone, but I also enjoy hanging out with friends. Am I an'I' person or an'E' person?"

When you take a personality test, you may think," Oh, that's me." That's because the descriptions are generic. They can be used to describe many people. Research has found that over50% of people got a different score when they retook the MBTI test just five weeks later. Personalities can change with time, and they are not black- or- white, scientists say. You may be introverted now but become extroverted when you get older. Or, you can be both an"I" person and an"E" person. Don't label(贴标签) yourself! Studies have also shown that the test is not real at telling people's success in different jobs. So, don't take it too seriously.
