Social media and the mobile web have given rise to a strange phenomenon(现象) called the selfie. It refers to a picture of yourself, usually shared on any social networking website.
1. Some selfies are extremely close-ups, and others show part of an arm held straight outward. A few of them even feature the subject standing in front of a bathroom mirror.
Everyone takes selfies, but the younger crowd seems to be especially involved in the trend. Young people are relatively heavier digital users. They are interested in staying connected to their friends. 2.
There are also kinds of psychological(心理学的) factors driving people to take a selfie and upload it to a social networking site. 3. A quick and easy way to attract others’ attention is to get “likes” and comment from friends. Secondly, it is human nature to show off your own great achievements. When you feel good about yourself or look good, it is far too easy to take out your phone and document it all through one or several selfies. 4. That is right. Sometimes people are bored at work, bored at school, bored at home and even bored on the toilet. Last but not the least, social media is about being social! If that means uploading as many selfies as possible, then so be it. It is fun, and it’s a cool way to sort of document of your own life.
Finally, there are things to be mindful of when you are posting. It’s easy to think you’re sharing a photo with a few people. 5. So don’t post anything online, selfie especially.
A. There are a lot of selfie styles.
B. The rise of selfies has become universal.
C. Social media, to some extent, is the driving force of their selfie activity.
D. The desire to take, post and get “likes” on selfies goes back to a biological behavior.
E. But the whole world of social media is public and every individual can get access to it.
F. There are also people who will take selfies because they have nothing else better to do.
G. The leading factor is that people want to get attention from as many people as possible.

What do working mothers worry about the most? It's the kids of course. Whatever the setting, the question I get asked the most is "Will the kids be alright?" It has made me realize that we tend to look at the glass half-empty rather than half-filled when it comes to mixing work and family. We forget about all the benefits that we bring to our children when we work - and I'm not talking about the obvious financial benefits, although these of course shouldn't be taken for granted.
About a year ago I remember getting a call from the school just as I was pulling up to the house after having driven 20 minutes to the school and 20 minutes back. "Mrs. Brown Quinn, your son asked us to call. He forgot his sports clothes. Can you come back to the school and drop them off?" I was exasperated(恼火)! I had already spent 40 minutes in aggressive weekday morning traffic. I replied, "Sorry, I'm working at the moment. I'm afraid my son needs to learn to be organized."
Being a good parent requires delivering tough love sometimes. Kids need to learn to be independent. It can be a cruel and competitive world out there. Seeking interests, including business, outside of your kids, can give you that extra idea that you need not care for your kids with attention. This benefit of working isn't always immediately evident.
It wasn't until our daughter went away to college that she realized why we had raised her in the way that we did. "Mom, I can't believe how so many of my friends struggle to manage things on their own. They are constantly calling their parents for help." You'll love that moment! After all those years of complaining about why you don't do this or why you don't give them that, your kids realize that tough love has made them better people.
1.The purpose of the author is to ______.
A. describe her own experience in raising children
B. advise us to mix work and family
C. throw light on a special benefit of working
D. argue for working mothers
2.How can kids become better people according to the author?
A. By showing them your deep love.
B. By giving them all your attention.
C. By giving them tough love.
D. By giving them freedom to do things on their own.
3.The daughter's attitude towards the author is ______ when she grows up.
A. understanding B. caring
C. disappointed D. surprised
4.The author refused to drop off her son's sports clothes because ______.
A. she wanted her son to be organized
B. she was caught in heavy traffic
C. she thought her son was lying
D. she was busy working
