The practice known as “sharenting”—thedocumentation of children’s lives and milestones on social media—has become increasingly common.However, scholars now warn that this seemingly harmless activity may carry significant and long-termconsequences for children’s safety and privacy.Researchers at the University of Southampton found that widespread online sharing can heightenchildren’s vulnerability to cybercrime. Drawing on a survey of more than 1,000 parents in the United Kingdom,followed by in-depth interviews, the study revealed that 45% of parents actively post images of their childrenonline, while approximately one in six reported that their child had already experienced some form of onlineharm. According to Rani Govender, online child safety policy manager at the NSPCC, the findings underscorethe seriousness of the issue. She noted that sharing children’s photos or videos at scale can compromise theirsafety, privacy, and overall wellbeing. In particular, images posted online may unintentionally expose sensitivepersonal details—such as birthdays, home locations, or pet names—which could later facilitate identity fraud.Lead researcher Pamela Ugwudike described sharenting as “a real and present danger” to children. Whileparents often share images out of pride or affection, she argued that such actions may unknowingly exposechildren to risks both online and offline. Once images circulate on social media, strangers may gatherinformation that allows them to contact or track children, with potential consequences extending far into thefuture.The issue of sharenting has long generated debate, especially regarding children’s right to privacy. Publicdiscussion intensified in 2019 when actor Gwyneth Paltrow posted a photograph with her daughter Apple onInstagram, prompting the child to publicly object to the image being shared without her consent. Such incidentshighlight a broader concern identified in the research: many parents remain unfamiliar with how social mediaprivacy settings actually function. The study found that parents, relatives, caregivers, and even schoolsfrequently overestimate the protection offered by “private” accounts. As Govender explained, features such astagging, resharing, or screenshots can easily override privacy controls, allowing images to circulate far beyondtheir intended audience.Beyond privacy concerns, experts warn that emerging technologies introduce new and alarming risks.The Internet Watch Foundation（IWF）reported that criminals have begun using artificial intelligence imagegenerators to create highly realistic sexualized images of children based on only a few ordinary, non-sexualphotographs. Kerry Smith, head of the IWF, cautioned that such AI-generated content could enable new formsof abuse, including sexual extortion and blackmail. Because AI imagery has become increasingly lifelike anddifficult to distinguish from real photographs, she warned that the dangers associated with sharenting nowextend into an evolving digital landscape where technological misuse amplifies existing threats.

Which statement best captures the author’s overall attitude toward sharenting？ (A)It is harmless when parents use privacy settings carefully. (B)It is mainly beneficial for strengthening family relationships. (C)It carries unintended long-term risks despite positive intentions. (D)It should be legally prohibited worldwide.

According to the passage, why are privacy settings described as unreliable protection？ (A)Social media companies disable them frequently without informing the users. (B)Children can easily change account passwords and lose the access to the settings. (C)The users have technical difficulty to activate the privacy settings. (D)Platform features allow content to reach people other than the users’ intention.

In the sentence “sharing children’s photos online can compromise their safety and privacy,” what doesthe word compromise most nearly mean？ (A)balance two different interests (B)expose to possible harm or danger (C)reduce slightly but not seriously (D)discuss and reach an agreement

Why does the author mention both traditional online risks and AI-generated threats？ (A)To argue that artificial intelligence is the main cause of online crime. (B)To suggest parents should especially focus on preventing AI misuse. (C)To compare past internet problems with future technological benefits. (D)To show that technology is expanding existing dangers rather than replacing them.

What rhetorical function does the statistical data from the Southampton study mainly serve in the article？ (A)It strengthens the credibility of the warning with empirical evidence. (B)It introduces a neutral background description of social media habits. (C)It demonstrates that sharenting is not necessarily declining among parents. (D)It provides striking evidence that may increase readers’ sense of concern.

One type involves physical activity andits demands; the other type is the result of mental and emotional demands. Whether physical or emotional inorigin, stress causes the body to react in similar ways. In the first stage, your body prepares to meet the stress.The heartbeat and respiration rates increase, and the pupils of the eyes dilate; the blood sugar level increases,and the perspiration rate speeds up, while digestion slows down as blood and muscular activity is divertedelsewhere. In the second stage, your body returns to normal and repairs any damage caused by the stressfulsituation. However, if stress continues, the body cannot repair itself, and the final stage, exhaustion, thenbegins. If this stage continues, physical and emotional damage will occur. These stages of stress reaction aregenerally the same, whether the stress is caused by a cross-country run, a first date, buying a house, or narrowlymissing an automobile accident.Stress from physical activity, if not carried too far, is actually beneficial. Probably most harmful of allstresses is guilt. This common emotion is useful to have when it helps us realize that we have, in fact,committed some error, violated our own rules or social norms. If we did not feel guilt, we would never doanything except the things that brought us immediate pleasure—we’d never obey the law, work, or even studyin school, unless we wanted to do so in the first place. As a person’s conscience develops, guilt feelings becomeinevitable; guilt is the sorrow we experience when we know we have done something incorrect.Many of us as children learned rules that we no longer need. For instance, a successful business personneeds not feel guilty about spending a little too much money on a vacation, or should she/he feel guilty thatshe/he can combine a business trip with some swimming and golf at an ocean resort. But many people do feelguilty over such apparently innocent actions. Excessive guilt can make life not worth living; guilt can causeself-hatred as well as other fears and anxieties that cause all life’s successes to be bittersweet, at best.Guilt and the worry that often accompanies this major stress are difficult to eradicate, but people subjectto excessive guilt feelings should realize, as simple as it sounds, that no one is perfect. People cannot alwaysbe cheerful and helpful to everyone they meet. Another good lesson is that mistakes should be forgotten, notlingered over and brought out to examine periodically.A life without stress would be boring. Just as we need a little guilt to keep us correct, and a little worry tomake us plan ahead, we need a little stress to stay interested in life. But, when stress begins to bother you,change your routine. Take your mind off your worries with some activities, whether tennis, yoga, gardening,or meditation. Or talk your worries over with someone else; you may discover a solution you had overlookedbefore.

Today, more than 40 millionpeople living in the US were born in another country, accounting for about one-fifth of the world’s migrants.Also, the population of immigrants is very diverse, with just about every country in the world representedamong US immigrants. Pew Research Center regularly publishes statistical portraits of the nation’s foreign-born population, which include historical trends since 1960. These portraits provide more details on the USimmigrant population.The US foreign-born population reached a record 44.8 million in 2018. Since 1965, when US immigrationlaws replaced a national quota system, the number of immigrants living in the US has more than quadrupled.Immigrants today account for 13.7% of the US population, nearly triple the share (4.8%) in 1970. However,today’s immigrant share remains below the record 14.8% share in 1890 when 9.2 million immigrants lived inthe US.Most immigrants (77%) are in the country legally, while almost a quarter are unauthorized, according to newPew Research Center estimates based on census data adjusted for undercount. In 2017, 45% were naturalizedUS citizens, 27% of immigrants were permanent residents, and 5% were temporary residents in 2017. Another23% of all immigrants were unauthorized immigrants. From 1990 to 2007, the unauthorized immigrantpopulation was more than tripled in size – from 3.5 million to a record high of 12.2 million in 2007. By 2017,that number had declined by 1.7 million, or 14%. There were 10.5 million unauthorized immigrants in the USin 2017, accounting for 3.2% of the nation’s population. The decline in the unauthorized immigrant populationis due largely to a fall in the number from Mexico – the single largest group of unauthorized immigrants in theUS.

With rapidadvancements in technology and growing interest from both public and private entities, the possibilities ofhumans establishing permanent settlements in space are gaining momentum.Space colonization is driven by the vision of expanding human presence beyond Earth and ensuring thelong-term survival of our species. Scientists believe that establishing self-sustaining colonies on celestialbodies such as the Moon, Mars, or even asteroids could provide a solution to future challenges on Earth,including overpopulation and resource depletion. One of the main hurdles in space colonization is thedevelopment of reliable transportation systems. Achieving routine and affordable access to space is critical forlarge-scale migration. The emergence of reusable rocket technology has significantly lowered the cost ofreaching orbit. Moreover, ongoing research on advanced propulsion systems, such as ion engines and nuclearpropulsion, could further enhance our ability to travel longer distances within the solar system. Creatinghabitable environments in space is another essential aspect of colonization. This involves designing closed-loop life support systems that can sustain human life for extended periods. NASA's International Space Station(ISS) serves as a crucial testing ground for developing and refining these technologies. Advances in areas likehydroponics, 3D printing, and energy generation have the potential to enable self-sufficient habitats in space.While the challenges are immense, space colonization offers several benefits. One significant advantage isthe potential to exploit extraterrestrial resources. Asteroids, for instance, contain valuable metals like platinumand gold, as well as water ice, which can be utilized for life support and fuel production. By harnessing theseresources, space settlers could establish sustainable economies and reduce dependence on Earth's limitedreserves. The prospect of space migration also opens up new frontiers for scientific discovery. Studyingcelestial bodies firsthand can deepen our understanding of the universe and shed light on fundamental questionsabout the origin and nature of life. Furthermore, the development of technologies and methodologies requiredfor space colonization could have far-reaching applications on Earth, benefiting industries such as medicine,energy, and materials science.In conclusion, space colonization has transitioned from science fiction to an attainable goal, opening upnew possibilities for humanity. Unlocking the potential of space migration could mark a significant chapter inour history, allowing us to explore, flourish, and secure the long-term survival of our species beyond the limitsof Earth.
