See Through the News

①Mark Twain once said: “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.”

②This is especially true when talking about news stories we read online every day. Have you ever noticed that some stories don’t seem true? These stories are known as “fake news”, and have become common on social media (社交媒体).

③In a new study, researchers from MIT found that lies and fake news spread faster and farther than true stories on social media.

④They analyzed (分析) more than 126,000 stories shared by 3 million users on Twitter. It turned out that fake stories often reached between 1,000 and 100,000 people, but true stories reached just a little over 1,000.

⑤This may be because fake news can easily catch people’s attention. Fake news stories often talk about widely-discussed topics which are easy for people to argue about. They also have new and surprising information. Fake news stories are more sensational (耸人听闻的) and might make people feel angry or surprised.

⑥In 2017, the Wenzhou Evening News reported that a girl was not allowed to take her college entrance exam because she showed up two minutes late. Many internet users became angry after hearing this, believing that the school was being unreasonable. But in fact, the girl was 17 minutes late. Students are usually allowed to take the exam as long as they arrive no later than 15 minutes after the exam starts. But the girl was two minutes later than allowed.

⑦Luckily, there are more and more programs to help stop fake news. Nearly one third of teenagers in the United States find many stories online are not true after taking a news literacy class. In Britain, several famous reporters will go to around 1,000 secondary schools. While there, the reporters will give students lessons on how to identify fake news. The best thing for us to do is to think critically (批判地) and check carefully before sharing a story.

1.What did the researchers from MIT find in their study?

A.People are more interested in reading real news than fake stories.

B.Fake news can reach more people than real news on social media.

C.There are more fake news stories than real stories on social media.

D.Social media will make it impossible to spread real news to others.

2.What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?

A.How fast fake news can spread. B.What topics fake news is about.

C.Why fake news spreads so fast. D.What people think of fake news.

3.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To help readers be more careful with fake news.

B.To explain reasons behind people’s news sharing.

C.To introduce different ways to identify fake news.

D.To encourage readers to stop reading news online.

My little brother is six years old, in first grade. Yesterday, he gave mum a letter from his teacher. "I got a red card today. Could you please sign(签名) this note（便笺）?" he said to Mom. The note showed that he slept during reading time. He gets a "red card" only once in a while. His real worry is that he doesn’t get top scores（分数） in his school work. His best score is "OK". He often gets "You can do better than this". My mom tells me "You can do better than this" means "Very bad" in China.

In America, teachers are very nice to their students. They never say anything too bad about them even if（即使） the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is "Please be nicer tomorrow". Many parents are pleased with a B-grade for each subject. I’ve learned that things are different in Chinese schools. Expectations （期待）are very high for students. Even from first grade, they have a lot of homework. My first-grade Chinese cousin spent more time on homework than I did when I was in Grade 6 in US. Yet his parents and school thought he was a bad student. But to me, he was good, even though he didn’t meet his parents" expectations. My parents tell me that some students are years before American students in math and science. And Chinese students are the most hard-working in the world. Do you think it’s too strict?

The resignation（辞职）letter of Gu Shaoqiang， a teacher from Henan， “The world is so big； I want to see it.” is very popular in the Internet. Many people say that it spoke the minds of millions of people who feel they have been in a boring and normal life and want to do something different to change it. Whatever the teacher may be able to achieve with her life， it is meaningful for people to make their dream come true.

So， what is your opinion? Should we praise（表扬）the teacher for resigning and following her dreams?　

Yes---All of us have dreams that can’t come true right now.　

First， Too many people waste their lives by doing things they don’t love simply because it is what people expect them to do. They are not happy and they also affect（影响） people around them. The earlier they can break free， the more meaning they can make out of their lives.　

Second， It is a waste of people’s talents and social resources（资源） if they don’t get to do the things they are most talented at. Some people don’t want to be white-collar workers all their lives. They should have the freedom to change their lives.　

Third， As our country develops so fast， people have greater freedom to change their lives as long as they put in the time and effort. The teacher is a good example.　

No---People can’t change their lives overnight.　

First， “Seeing the world” is not good enough an excuse to leave one’s job and life. This kind of attitude could actually be a bad example for young people.

Second， Everyone has a place in society and life. People may not have achieved their wildest or most ambitious dreams， but where they end up is the result of their and society’s decisions. Unless they offer to make lots of efforts and sacrifices， people can’t change their lives overnight.　

Third， The reason why the teacher gave up her job is too unclear. It is too irresponsible.

1.Why does Gu Shaoqiang become popular recently according to the passage?

A. Because of her dream

B. Because she is a very famous teacher

C. Because of her resignation letter

D. Because she wants to see the outside world

2.The Chinese meaning of underlined word “ overnight” is _______.

A. 隔夜地　　　　　　 B. 一夜间地　　　　　 C. 通宵地　　　　　　 D. 随时

3.Some people disagree that we should praise the teacher except（除了）____

A. It is just an excuse to run away from the job and life.

B. Everyone has a social place and each should makes efforts to change lives step by step.

C. If someone wants to leave the job， it is polite and necessary to tell your reasons instead of one piece of easy sentence.

D. People have freedom to change their lives， the teacher sets a good example.
