广东省广州市华南师大附中2024-2025 学年九年级上学期学业评价(一) 英语试题
Recently, 76% of people between the ages of 65 and 74, who took part in a survey, said they used social media, compared to 40% five years earlier. An increase in social media use was also seen among people aged 75 and over. A growing number of elderly people are active on social networks and are using the Internet to make calls.
But how will you feel when you find out your grandparents are using social media? Many young people may think"Oh no! They' re going to see everything I post and start writing comments(评论)" and many others say"I'm going to have to spend hours teaching them how to use social media. It's troublesome". Once they have learned how to use social media, they may get a lot of fun. Take Amy for example. She is an 80-year-old granny who has over three million followers on a social media platform because of her sincere sharing on fashionable dressing and positive life attitude.
Honestly, you should be happy if your grandparents are eager to join the digital worlds. Social media use can have a number of health benefits for the elderly. Nowadays families are more geographically distant than ever before, and social media is a great way to connect with faraway relatives and friends. While nothing replaces face-to-face communication, social media is a great way to keep in touch with family members. Another benefit is that elderly people can make new friends who share similar interests, or find long-lost friends from childhood. Finally, social media use can be very educational. For example, looking through Wechat news is a great way to stay informed and keep up to date with local and global events.
Have your grandparents had a social media account yet? Have they asked you to help them create one, but you didn't care? Perhaps you should make the effort because it may affect their quality of life.
