1 . Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write about them in his diary. Now a teenager might surf the Internet and write about his problems, in his blog. In some ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. Then, what makes a blog different from a diary.
The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public (公开的) than a diary. Anyone can read what you write in your blog. If you are not satisfied (满意的) with a friend and write something bad about him in your diary, he will never know it. However, if you do this on the Internet, your friend may read your blog and get angry. So we have to be careful of what we write.
A blog has good points, of course. People choose to write in blogs, and they know their friend will read what they write.
If you feel sad one day and write in your diary, no one will know about it. If you write the same words in your blog, your friends may quickly write back to comfort (安慰) you and give you their help.
Blogs help people know what their friends are doing. Though it’s a good way to write blogs about everyday life, I still prefer (更喜欢) old diary.

3 . Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write about them in his diary. Now a teenager might surf the Internet and write about his problems in his blog. In some ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. What makes a blog different from a diary? The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public (公开的) than a diary. I have a younger sister, and sometimes I read her blog. She writes about things like getting up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her maths exam. When I was her age, I wrote the same things but only in my diary. After I finished writing, I would put my diary in a secret (秘密的) place because I was worried that someone else might read it.
A blog is public so it has some bad points. The biggest problem is that anyone can read what you write. If I am angry with a friend during school and write something bad about him in my diary, he will never know. However, if my sister writes something bad about a friend, that friend may read her blog and cry. So we must be very careful to write.
Blogs have good points, of course. If I feel lonely (孤独的) and write “Nobody cares about me” in my diary. No one will know about it. However, if my sister writes the same words in her blog, her friends will quickly reply and tell her how much they like her. A blog helps people keep in touch with their friends.
If people are careful, writing blogs is really a good way to communicate (交流) with others. However, I still enjoy my diary!

Since last year, short videos have gotten millions of views (关注) online. Many people create and share short videos on popular video apps. The short videos are 15 seconds to a few minutes long. They show people doing activities like cooking, exercising and singing.
Teenagers especially enjoy these videos. More than 50 percent of the junior high school students said they enjoy watching these short videos. About 47 percent of them have posted their own videos, according to a recent report by the China National Youth Palace Association.
The videos let teenagers see funny and exciting things they wouldn’t usually see. Many teens like to share the fun things they do with others as well. For example, a 12-year-old user named Xiao Qianyu has posted videos showing her learning jazz dance. This has won many fans.

10 . Do you know which social app is popular with Chinese young people now? “Short videos”are certainly the most popular. A large number of young people use Tik Tok (抖音) and Kuaishou. They think it is fun to share their lives by short videos, while others have other purposes as well.
A 12-year-old user named Elsa has about 2.7 million fans on Tik Tok. The girl has shared her dancing studies on Tik Tok since last July. One of the videos won her about one million fans.“I feel really glad to share happiness with people by short videos,” said Elsa.
To some other young people, they use short videos to have a quick look at the hot programs. “Because I don’t like to spend many hours watching a whole program, I hate waiting for a program to end, and I prefer to watch short videos of wonderful parts of hot programs,” said Wang Zhihao.
However, some young people feel bored with short videos.“Killing time is the main reason for me to watch short videos, and many short videos are almost the same, so I think they are not so useful or interesting. What’s more, I really don’t like the videos about strange and dangerous things,” said Wen Nan, another college student.
Recently, something else has appeared. Some videos are telling people what commodities are worth buying. Some short videos even sell bad commodities, and it is hard for customers to get their money back. So we should think twice before we want to buy the commodities by short videos.
