| Everyone is talking about “digital citizen”, but what is it? Well, a digital citizen is someone who often uses the Internet. A good digital citizen uses the Internet wisely, follows the Internet rules and helps make the Internet a great world for everyone. Are you a good digital citizen? If you don’t know how to use the Internet properly, here are some suggestions. Stay safe Do not tell anyone online your real name, phone number, home address or even the area where you live. Because bad people can use your personal information to find you. So you should be really careful with it. Show respect Just like in real life, it’s important to behave well online. For example, if you want to post a video or a photo of someone, make sure you ask for his or her agreement first. Remember that everybody can have their own opinions. It’s OK to disagree, but always be polite! Be kind Before you post your opinion online, stop and think. How will your words make someone feel? Don’t say something that would hurt someone. If you see someone being bullied online, tell your parents or teachers. Be careful Don’t trust everyone or everything online. It’s possible that people on the Internet are not telling the truth. Never open emails from strangers or click on strange links (链接). Tell your parents or teachers if someone online makes you feel uncomfortable. Spending time online can be great if you’re a good digital citizen. So, be safe and have fun. |

3 . In the past decade, the use of social media has grown in a way that no one could have guessed. It has turned some teenagers into celebrities (名人) and turned the famous into the infamous, overnight.
A key feature (特征) of social media, however, is its volatility. Trends (趋向，动向) come and go, disappearing almost as quickly as they appeared.
Short video apps such as TikTok and its Chinese equivalent (对应词) Douyin, took the world by storm. TikTok was once ranked 8th on Apple’s App Store, and Douyin had more than 300 million domestic monthly active users.
Why are these short videos, which are rarely (罕有) longer than a few minutes, so popular? Jiang Yige, Singapore-based analyst at FengHe Fund Management, has a theory. “Short videos are just right to fill in the little gaps in our busy schedules,” he told CNBC.
These videos, apart from being very convenient, are important to teenagers because they allow them to express themselves, according to Teen Vogue.
Liza Koshy, a user of the US app Musical, who has over 2 million followers, said, “The sense of community that users of short video apps get is another appealing (有吸引力的) feature.”
Live streaming (直播) is a feature of our social media life that now seems as, natural as sunrise. It’s a pretty neat idea: You can watch anyone, anywhere, live? However, China has taken live streaming to a whole new level. In China, millions of viewers monthly watch a live streaming video. Forbes thought that a number of factors had led to the popularity of the live streaming. Among them is viewers’ ability to interact with unknown names.
However, the quick development of social media may be having side effects too. Fake news is one serious problem it causes. Materials shared on these platforms are often not checked for accuracy (准确，精确). The most basic content (内容) can be false and can mislead users one way or another. We use social media all the time, which doesn’t mean that we understand the influence it is having on us. We should be mindful of both the time we spend on it and its powerful effect on our minds.

Safer Internet Day is on the second Tuesday of February every year. On this day, people in around 170 countries take part in activities to try to make the Internet a safer place for children and young people.
Safer Internet Day celebrates all the great things about being online. We can use the Internet to learn new things, video call family members who live far away, chat to friends, listen to music, watch videos and play games. But there can also be dangers when we are online. Online bullying (霸凌) is when someone uses the Internet to make another person feel bad, often with bad messages on messaging apps or social media (社交媒体). Online bullying can happen in games too, when players post unkind messages in the chat box.
On Safer Internet Day in the UK, children do activities at school, at home, in youth groups and in other places. They do quizzes and worksheets (小测试和练习题), read stories, watch films, make posters and have discussions about how to stay safe online.
Here are some tips on now to stay safe online:
★ If you see something bad, tell an adult. If you see something online that makes you scared or worried, or if you know that someone is being bullied, tell a parent, a teacher or another adult who you trust. If someone is unkind while you are playing a game, an adult can help you report or block that player.
★ Don’t meet people who you only know online. It’s possible that people you meet online aren’t really who they say they are. It can be dangerous to go to meet them in real life.
★ Don’t believe everything you read online! Not everything you read online is true. When you look for information, make sure that you use a website you can trust. And only share things with your friends if you know that they are true.

6 . The Internet is very popular with young people nowadays. They think that the Internet has brought them a number of advantages. In my opinion, the Internet affects young people not only in a positive way, but also in a negative way.
There is no doubt that the Internet has a good effect on widening young people’s knowledge. It keeps everyone knowledgeable. In just a few minutes each day people can get the most recent news. Moreover, more and more young people are using the Internet to look for information to help them in their work or studies. They can also learn a lot about culture and history on the Internet.
On the other hand, the Internet also has negative influences on young people. Firstly, the overuse of computers can bring in bad physical side-effects. It will do harm to people’s eyes to sit in front of a computer for a long time without a break. Other health problems, such as stomachache, headache and back pain, also happen quite easily to those who spend too much time on computers. Furthermore, the Internet seems to separate young people from the real world. Although they are usually familiar with the current affairs, their face-to-face communication skills are very poor. They communicate with other people through Yahoo, My space and MSN instead of going out with their family or meeting friends. Therefore, young people can show a lack of common sense in relationships or have difficulty communicating in the real world. In addition, a lot of websites are not good for teenagers. For example, some websites include unhealthy videos that should be deleted.
In conclusion, besides helping young people to increase their knowledge, the Internet may also bring in some bad results. While the benefits seem to fill all the need, the disadvantages also need the same attention. The young really need guidance on how to use the Internet.

Do you know any people like these? They are part of a new addiction (瘾) called Internet addiction. According to the survey, Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week.

9 . The Internet has changed the world. People are able to get and share information in seconds. Nowadays, people begin to wonder: Is the Internet good or bad? “It’s impossible to answer that question because the Internet is so many things,” says psychologist (心理学家) Patricia Greenfield.
Some are truly wonderful. In many ways it makes life easier and simpler. It helps us get things done more quickly. It opens up the world to us. And if a friend lives far away, the Internet makes it easy to stay in touch.
However, the issue (话题) isn’t black and white. Some can become real problems if we don’t take care. Spending too much time online is harmful to people’s health. It may even cause them to be less social with family and friends. Apart from (除……之外) that, some people attack the web or use the Internet to steal others’ personal information, even banking information. Most of the young students think the Internet is simply an icon on the screen. Kids won’t realize that the Internet is a network of millions of computers until about 10 years old.
The Internet can be a useful tool, but don’t let it take up all of your time. Use the Internet properly (适当地) and carefully and it can make your life more colourful.
