[2024南通期末改编]Most of us cannot imagine modern life without social media(社交媒体). We use it almost every day to keep up with what is happening in our friends' lives, or find out the latest information. But if we don't use it properly, social media also does harm.
The greatest advantage is that we can connect with people much more easily. We are still able to keep in touch with our friends if they are far away. With social media, we are able to find friends, old and new. Also, it makes it easier for us to make friends, especially for those who are afraid of making friends face to face. Are you shy? If yes, social media has probably helped.
Social media is also ideal for making yourself heard. Anyone with a talent is free to show it. Everyone is a new content (内容) creator. Moreover, anyone with a smartphone and the Internet can be a reporter. As a result, it has become much faster to cover the news than ever before.
Social media, on the other hand, can make us less confident sometimes. A study found that the more a person uses the social media, the sadder he feels about his own life. One reason for this is that people around us put colorful information and perfect pictures online to show off their best moment. So when we compare(比较) our lives with theirs, we often get a distorted sense. Their lives are much more wonderful.

Social media doesnot causesadness;it just gives us another tool to use. Is it good or bad? A Nobel Peace Prize wnner says,"We must try to

use social media inagoodway."Afer all, you decide how to use this powerful tool.

【语篇解构】阅读文章,补充下面的结构图

答案： 【解题导语】本文主要介绍了社交媒体的利弊。
1 D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的"The greatest advantage is that we can connect with people much more easily"可知答案。
2 C 词义猜测题。根据画线词前后内容可知,我们周围的人把丰富多彩的信息和完美的图片放在网上以展示他们最美好的时刻,因此我们经常会有不正确的感觉,与我们自己的生活相比,他们的生活是多么美好,故此处画线单词意为"不正确的",和 wrong 意义相近。
3 B 篇章结构题。本文第一段引出话题;第二、三段介绍了社交媒体的好处;第四段介绍了社交媒体的弊端;第五段进行了总结,故选 B。
4 A 标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了社交媒体的利弊,以选项 A"社交媒体:我们的朋友还是敌人?"为标题最合适。
