What Is Social Media?
Not many people ask the question “What is social media?” anymore.Social media has been around for years now, and most of us would probably describe it as any Internet medium that can be used to share information with others, including blogs, forums, applications, games, websites and other stuff.
But let me ask you this: what exactly is so “social” about sitting before a computer setting up a blog and blogging for days without anybody reading it, or scrolling through your Facebook feed of information from 500 friends you barely know? If you ask me, it can be way more anti-social than anything.
Social media is not a “thing”.It's not just Facebook, WeChat and Weibo.It's more of a frame of mind and a state of being.It's about how you use it to improve your relationships with other people in real life.However, we tend to rely on technology and social media so much that it can actually _tear_apart those relationships.
Social media isn't about numbers.When someone says “social media”, web giants like Facebook, Twitter, WeChat and Weibo instantly pop into our minds, often because they have more updates, more friends, more followers, more links, more photos and more everything.We tend to get distracted by the number game, thinking “volume, volume, volume”.It leads to a lot of meaningless noise and information overload.As the old saying goes, quality over quantity is usually the way to go.So, social media is not just about lots of people aimlessly spreading lots of information.
Social media needs to have an “IRL” factor-an Internet slang standing for “In Real Life”.It should affect how a person thinks or acts offline.After all, social media shouldn't be an end in itself.It was built to enhance your actual social life, in real life.Take for example an event that a person attends because he is invited by the host on Facebook through a Facebook event page.Something like that definitely has the IRL factor.Likewise, a WeChat photo that touches someone so much that they feel the need to bring it up and describe it to someone else during a dinner date also has the IRL factor.
So, is it really considered to be social to spend an hour scrolling through photos on Weibo, with no thoughtful or emotional effect and no interaction with others? In fact, there is no wall between real life and Internet life where true social media exists.Social media is not a specific place on the Internet or just a thing you use to see what other people are doing.It's all about creating meaningful experiences and relationships wherever you may be.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文,作者呼吁读者利用社交媒体来促进真实的社会生活。
1.What does the underlined phrase “tear apart” in Paragraph 3 mean in the text?
A.Destroy. B.Change.
C.Continue. D.Strengthen.
【解析】 A 词义猜测题。destroy破坏;change改变;continue继续;strengthen加强。根据上文“It's about how you use it to improve your relationships with other people in real life.”可推断,此处指我们往往过于依赖科技和社交媒体,以至于它们实际上会破坏那些关系。tear apart意为“破坏使分裂、分开”,故选A。
2. The writer thinks that social media should be ________.
A.a number of websites where people communicate
B.a set of social tools like Facebook, WeChat and Weibo
C.a collection of online applications where ideas are exchanged
D.a group name for online platforms used to strengthen meaningful relationships
【解析】 D 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Social media is not a specific place on the Internet or just a thing you use to see what other people are doing.It's all about creating meaningful experiences and relationships wherever you may be.”可知,作者认为,社交媒体应该是用来加强有意义的关系的网络平台的统称,故选D。
3.According to the author, which of the following cases has an IRL factor?
A.Updating Facebook on a regular basis.
B.Following new friends in real life on Facebook.
C.Visiting a museum with friends after reading a story on Weibo.
D.Reading Twitter to see what other people are doing and thinking about.
【解析】 C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Social media needs to have an “IRL” factor-an Internet slang standing for “In Real Life”.It should affect how a person thinks or acts offline.After all, social media shouldn't be an end in itself.It was built to enhance your actual social life, in real life.”可推知,在微博上读了一篇故事后,和朋友一起参观博物馆含有IRL因素,故选C。
4.What is the author's purpose of writing this article?
A.To explain the importance of social media.
B.To inform the negative effects of social media.
C.To call on readers to use social media to promote real social life.
D.To encourage readers to interact with others in real life more often.
【解析】 C 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“It's all about creating meaningful experiences and relationships wherever you may be.”可推断,作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁读者利用社交媒体来促进真实的社会生活,故选C。
Ⅳ.语法填空
The Internet is the 1.________(big) source of information in the world,2.______ consists of millions of pages of data.
It dates back to 1969 when a US defense 3.________(organize) developed a way for all their computers to talk to each other through their telephone.They 4.________(create) a network called DAEPANET, which, however,5.________(use) only by the US army.Then in 1984, the NSF started the NSFNET network, which was known 6.________ the Inter-Network.Later, an English scientist put forward 7.________ idea of the World Wide Web while he was working in Switzerland in 1989.He made 8.________ possible for everyone to use the Internet.The first “web browser” 9.________(design) by him allowed computer users 10.________(access) documents from other computers.From that moment on, the Internet grew.Within five years, the number of Internet users rose from 600,000 to 40 million.
【语篇解读】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了互联网的诞生。互联网可以追溯到1969年,当时美国国防组织开发出一种方法,让所有的电脑都能通过电话相互通话。1984年,国家科学基金会建立了国家科学基金会网络,被称为互联网。1989年,一位英国科学家提出了万维网的概念并使每个人都能上网。
1.【解析】 biggest 考查形容词。句意:互联网是世界上最大的信息来源。根据空前的定冠词the及联系上下文可知用形容词最高级形式。故填biggest。
2.【解析】 which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,先行词为the Internet,指物,在非限制性定语从句中作主语,故填which。
3.【解析】 organization 考查名词。句意:它可以追溯到1969年,当时一个美国国防组织开发出一种方法,让所有的电脑都能通过电话相互通话。分析句子可知在when引导的定语从句中,developed作谓语,从句中缺少主语,US defense organization意为“美国国防组织”。故填organization。
4.【解析】 created 考查时态。句意:他们创建了一个名为DAEPANET的网络,然而,它只被美军使用。这里在讲一件过去发生的事,所以句子用一般过去时态,故填created。
5.【解析】 was used 考查时态和语态。分析句子可知,此处是由which引导的非限制性定语从句中的谓语,从句中的主语which指代先行词a network,a network和谓语动词use之间是被动关系,再根据这是过去发生的事应用一般过去时可知应填一般过去时的被动语态。故填was used。
6.【解析】 as 考查固定短语。be known as 意为“被称为”,为固定搭配。由the NSFNET network(国家科学基金会网络)后来又被称为the Inter-Network(互联网)可知应用be known as短语。故填as。
7.【解析】 the 考查定冠词。句意:后来,1989年,一位英国科学家在瑞士工作时提出了万维网的概念。此处特指这位科学家提出的万维网概念,需要用定冠词,故填the。
8.【解析】 it 考查代词。句意:他使每个人都能上网。分析句子结构可知,此处用it作形式宾语,代替后面的不定式短语。make it+adj.+for sb.to do是固定用法,意为“使某人做某事是……”,故填it。
9.【解析】 designed 考查非谓语动词。句意:他设计的第一个“网络浏览器”允许计算机用户访问其他计算机上的文件。分析句子成分可知 9.________(design) by him作后置定语修饰句子的主语The first “web browser”(第一个“网络浏览器”),判断design和The first “web browser”之间是被动关系,因此要用过去分词,故填designed。
10.【解析】 to access 考查非谓语动词。这里考查短语allow sb.to do允许某人做,用不定式作宾语补足语。故填to access。
