For over a century , student journalists at The Daily Tar Heel ( DTH ) have documented their college life and raised     1    ( variety ) questions on free expression , tuition , and big-time athletics... The independent student newspaper celebrated its 125th anniversary this year . To mark it , student     2    ( report ) asked the question : What’s the future of the DTH ?

Student newspapers are faced    3     a dark reality. Falling advertising income , increasing digital demands and the lack of subscription fees as they are free     4    ( read ) mean that such newspapers are finding them much     5    ( hard ) to survive . Most college papers have reduced their print editions . And while the DTH    6    ( use ) to produce around 22,000 newspapers , it only makes around 10,000 now .

Increasingly, student journalists have turned their focus to their digital platforms    7    they can tell stories with social media. And though     8    can be challenging for them to move away from that print tradition, they manage to adapt very well. So what should student newspapers    9    (trap) in this situation do? Perhaps the ideal answer would be for universities to    10    (financial) support student journalism. In the meantime,college newspapers are figuring out their financial models as they go along.

5 . Nowadays social media influencers have powerful influence. The concept of an influencer —a person who inspires or guides the actions of others—has been around for centuries. Before social media, influencers were famous persons or politicians far away from our lives.    1    

    2     A study undertaken in the US, the UK and Spain found that young people spent 76% more time on social media in 2020 than in the previous year, partly due to physical isolation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

In an age when anyone can be an influencer, content creators use their content on social media to influence others around the world.     3     In China, we’re familiar with online platforms like Douyin and Bilibili, while overseas TikTok, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter are often used. They post selfies in the latest fashion, livestream video game sessions or inspire others with motivational personal development advice. With their special knowledge or authority in specific subjects, they attract others in great numbers.

Because of this, young people can see themselves represented more directly online through influencers. This can be important for the development of an adolescent’s identity.

    4     “It can be really helpful for kids to see that they are going to be successful like their role models,” Ellen Selkie, a researcher at the University of Wisconsin Madison, told the website Mashable.

    5     When fashion models talk about size inclusivity (包容性) on their social networking platforms, for example, it can develop a sense of community, which helps them shape their right attitude.

7 . There are around 400,000 students in London. As university can be a costly time, many of these students will want to look for part-time work. Here are 4 relatively easy jobs to bag yourself in London and ensure a bit of pocket money through your university experience.

Waitressing

It is not hard to find waitressing jobs since London has an abundance of pubs and eateries. Gumtree and Indeed are good places for such opportunities. Hospitality UK and Next door are other great websites. However, as many of these positions are advertised on the windows of restaurants and pubs, going inside and asking the staff there about the positions is a much better idea. This will also demonstrate you as active and confident. Rates are around £12--15 an hour.

Mystery (神秘)shopping

It may not have you laughing to the bank but it's extra pocket money. You go at any time as a regular customer and check out the services that the business provides. You report back to the client and they will pay for your purchases alongside £5 —10.

Care Assistant

For those who have a heart of gold and want to help, caring is the way. There's a huge demand for people to spend your free time with elderly people or help people with disabilities. It can be cooking meals or making sure they're taking their medicine on time.

Receptionist

If you're a good communicator and can act professionally, a receptionist might be a great opportunity for you, which will help you build administrative skills and experience. Receptionist jobs are available at doctors surgeries, dentists, gyms, large offices and more.
