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 of social media, however, is its volatility. Trends come and go, disappearing almost as quickly as they appeared. Short video apps such as TikTok took the world by storm. Why are these short videos—which are rarely longer than a few minutes—so popular? Jiang Yige, a Singapore-based analyst, 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 CNBC.
The sense of community that users of short video apps get is another appealing feature. Lisa Koshy, a user of TikTok, who has over 2 million followers, said that she was thrilled when anyone said that her video had “inspired” him. “It's really cool... because I think as short video creators that's what we all expect,” she added.
Live streaming is another 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, the boom in social media may be having side effects too. Fake news is one serious problem it arguably causes. Material shared on these platforms is often not checked for accuracy. The most basic content can be false and can sway users one way or another. We use social media all the time; that 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 impact on our minds.

答案： 语篇导读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了社交媒体的发展速度惊人，短视频、直播媒体给人们的生活带来了便利，能够让人们展现自我，并带来认同感，但社交媒体的兴起也产生了副作用，我们应该客观地看待它。
1.A 词义猜测题。根据画线单词下一句“Trends come and go, disappearing almost as quickly as they appeared.”可知，画线单词和“变化”相关。A项意为“多变的”；B项意为“稳定的”；C项意为“有希望的”；D项意为“暴力的”。故选A。
2.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“However, the boom in social media may be having side effects too. Fake news is one serious problem it arguably causes. Material shared on these platforms is often not checked for accuracy. The most basic content can be false and can sway users one way or another.”可知，社交媒体的快速发展也伴随着一些副作用，由此推断，其还需进一步的提升。故选D。
3.A 主旨大意题。根据第一段以及全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了社交媒体的流行。所以“The Key Trends of Social Media(社交媒体的主要趋势)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选A。
