This is the first law of its kind in the world. Platforms (平台) like TikTok, Facebook and others must make sure users are over 16. If they don’t, they could face fines (罚款) of up to $33 million. The government says the purpose of the law is to protect kids from online dangers such as harmful content (内容) and cyberbullying (网络暴力)。 But not everyone agrees. Some experts think it might harm kids who use social media to connect with friends or find support. For example, some lonely kids might lose a place where they feel understood. The law has other challenges, too. Social media companies say it will be hard to check users’ ages. What’s worse, some people also say it might push kids to use illegal (非法的) websites, which could be even more dangerous. Supporters of the law think the law is very necessary. Sonya Ryan, whose daughter was harmed by an online stranger, said it’s a big step in protecting children. Others, like Senator Maria Kovacic, said social media companies should have already been refusing young users. However, mental (心理) health experts warn that the ban could cut children off from positive experiences, like learning new things or joining communities. They also say the law was made too quickly and might not work as planned. While many parents welcome the law, others believe it should be up to families, not the government, to decide what’s best for their kids. 1．Why does Australian government make the law?（不超过10个词） 2．What challenge do social media companies meet according to the text?（不超过15个词） 3．What do you think of the law?

This is the first law of its kind in the world. Platforms (平台) like TikTok, Facebook and others must make sure users are over 16. If they don’t, they could face fines (罚款) of up to $33 million. The government says the purpose of the law is to protect kids from online dangers such as harmful content (内容) and cyberbullying (网络暴力)。 But not everyone agrees. Some experts think it might harm kids who use social media to connect with friends or find support. For example, some lonely kids might lose a place where they feel understood.

Sonya Ryan, whose daughter was harmed by an online stranger, said it’s a big step in protecting children. Others, like Senator Maria Kovacic, said social media companies should have already been refusing young users. However, mental (心理) health experts warn that the ban could cut children off from positive experiences, like learning new things or joining communities.
