They are at the center of much of the world’s attention. Paparazzi (狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小报) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature (签名)! According to psychologist Christina Villarreal, celebrities—famous people—worry constantly (不断地) about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villarreal says, “they feel separated and alone.” The phenomenon (现象) of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B．C, painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his works attracted thousands of fans, leading him to complain about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern websites do. Being famous people today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something silly or do something ridiculous, there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever. If fame is so troublesome, why aren’t all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place. Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already. 1．It can be learned from the passage that stars today ________. A．are often misunderstood by the public B．can no longer have their privacy protected C．spend too much on their public appearance D．care little about how they have come into fame 2．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?

D．Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers. 3．What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today? A．Availability of modern media. B．Huge population of fans. C．Not enough social recognition. D．Lack of favorable chances. 4．What is author’s attitude toward modern celebrity? A．Sincere. B．Doubtful. C．Sympathetic. D．Disapproving. 2 Some people dream of becoming an Internet celebrity (网红). They want to have fans to make money from it and to make people from all over the world know them. They want to be famous so people will buy their products(产品) or hire(雇) them to do something they love. But why do they want to be famous on the Internet but not in traditional(传统的) ways? Becoming famous in traditional ways is hard. It needs a lot of time and money. If you are not beautiful, talented or lucky, you could spend years trying but get no results. But being an Internet celebrity doesn’t need a lot. And it doesn’t have to become a full-time job. They don’t need to work as hard as a traditional celebrity. It seems that they can get a lot without paying much! Every coin has two sides. The more you get, the more you have to pay. An Internet celebrity may have to give up part of his privacy (隐私) and be attacked by Internet violence(遭受网络攻击). Now some of our students try to show themselves on the Internet. Do remember to protect yourself online. Or you may be in danger. 1．Some people want to become an Internet celebrity because ________.

D．Students shouldn’t show themselves on the Internet. 3 When I was a young girl in 8th grade, my classmates told me how they met new friends and even chatted with celebrities on the Internet. I was fascinated and wanted to experience these exciting things. I opened an online account; this was the beginning of my journey through the virtual world. As time went by, I got used to checking social media more frequently. I lost myself in social media, chatting with friends and sharing my life with them. Social media was a source of happiness and more so, it brought a sense of satisfaction, pain, and frustration. My newfound interest started influencing my schoolwork. Instead of checking my school notes in time as usual, I checked social media more often to see what was happening with my friends’ lives. But I later discovered that by becoming more aware of other people’s lives, I became less in tune with myself. I was more focused on the illusions social media presented than the realities of my life. Thus, I started to sense depression, jealousy and hatred as a result of comparing my life with others. And I became much like what the people in the virtual world expected of me. Luckily, my phone went missing and my mother refused to get me a new one. I felt sad and lonely. However, her refusal led to something more meaningful to my life. Within a month, I became less concerned about other people’s lives and more focused on my lessons. And I had more time to study and sleep. Away from social media also made me realize that social media had been influencing my study habits and my private life. For example, I had no privacy. Anyone who was allowed to see my social media profiles could easily find out where I lived. Moreover, I sometimes spent 15 hours looking through social media without doing anything meaningful. After examining my use of social media, I decided not to completely quit social media, but to change the way I use them. I unfollowed sites that were not positive or educational to me. I only use social media to spread positive messages and connect with others. Social media is not bad in itself, but it becomes terrible when we are addicted to it. 1．Away from social media made the writer ________.

A．A personal experience with the virtual world. B．Disadvantages of phones outweigh benefits. C．A hard fight in the days without phones. D．Ways to get away from social media. 4 Today, there are many ads on social media and most ads are impossible to avoid, especially when people follow some famous influencers. The influencers are Internet celebrities(名人) with lots of social media followers, and their posts can influence lots of people. The new data from a research made by a teen researcher shows that these influencers promote(推销) more unhealthy foods and drinks than other celebrities. The new findings come from Nyasha Nyoni, 17. Nyasha is an athlete who likes cooking in the kitchen. Being healthy is important to her. She used to look at food and drink ads on mainstream ( 主 流 ) media. “I thought it would be interesting to look at social media,” Nyasha says, “because it’s a newer technology and it is growing so quickly.” Social-media platforms are often paid to promote foods and drinks. Nyasha wondered how healthy those products were, so she chose to make a research about it. First, Nyasha needed a list of Internet celebrities’accounts(账号). She picked 100 athletes from a Forbes list of the world’s highest-paid athletes. Her list of 100 musicians came from Billboard’s hot 100 songs. And she picked 100 biggest influencers on social media. Nyasha looked through their posts about promoting foods and drinks in 2019 and 2020. It turns out that the influencers promoted more snack products than other groups. Snacks were the unhealthiest food on social media. Nyasha was surprised by the result of her research. It didn’t match up with her experience or other studies. She’d expected influencers to promote more diet-related products. However, snacks were the most popular type of products by all three groups. Fruits, vegetables and water were least promoted. “These findings could encourage new social media rules to protect young users from unhealthy ads,” Nyasha says, “Nearly four out of every ten social media users are between the ages of 13 to 24. Influencers’ ads may be especially alluring(有吸引力的),” she says, “The influencers may be seen as more relatable than mainstream celebrities. As a result, young users may have fewer doubts about the products they promote”. This study has changed the way Nyasha sees her own social media. She has unfollowed some people who pushed unhealthy habits. She honestly thinks everyone should do that. Young users should get to construct(建构) their own social-media feeds to make that online space as healthy and positive as possible. 1．Nyasha Nyoni did the new research in order to find out ________. A．what the most popular ads were among young users on the social media B．how healthy the online foods and drinks promoted by influencers were C．which kind of foods and drinks was the best-seller on mainstream media D．why Internet celebrities promoted foods and drinks on the social media 2．According to the passage, Nyasha suggested that ________.
