21、   The idea of anonymous(匿名) social media is stronger than ever. However, there's a debate over the pros and cons of using popular anonymous apps.

Supporters of these apps offer several reasons why they believe the technology is good.

Many people post life events on apps to share with family and friends. However, some of those same people will turn to anonymous sites to ask for life advice when they feel uncomfortable sharing personal details with a friend. According to the economist Michael Heyward, since users are not identified, troubled individuals can find help from a non-judgmental source through apps. Take the popular anonymous app AfterSchool as the example. The app allows teens to speak freely with others about emotional and everyday life worries and problems.

Along the same lines, supporters believe that meaningful conversations can push important subjects to the front because a person is more likely to comment without fear of outcomes. These situations enable people to draw attention to subjects that might otherwise be pushed aside.

One of the goals of using anonymous apps is to encourage the users to post news as it happens. In 2017, a new service that produces articles automatically from users' posts came out. Surprisingly, it is popular-even writers at news companies use it. Some journalists even have started using these apps to report on the tech industry.

However, critics, people who are against the idea of anonymous commenting, see these apps as tools that spread less-desirable behaviors(举止). They reason if the limitation set by social rules is removed, there will be more improper behaviors.

One of the most common criticisms of anonymous social media is how easily a user can post a hurtful comment on an individual. This often puts the victim at the disadvantage of having to prove the statement false. Also, beyond the worry of such posts, there are more serious worries about crimes resulted from anonymous violence(暴力). While there are pros and cons to this debate, it's necessary to realize that anonymity is a hallmark(标志) of our history. As social media becomes a larger presence in everyday life, it's likely this subject will continue to be debated.

【1】AfterSchool in the third paragraph is mentioned to ________.

A.stress the bright side of anonymous apps B.encourage teens to use social media more

C.introduce a very popular app among teens D.show the possible problems of social media

【2】The writer probably agrees that ________.

A.it's beneficial to encourage further use of anonyrnous apps

B.more rules are needed to make a standard for anonymous apps

C.people need to wait to see whether anonymous apps are really bad

D.anonymous apps have something to do with the development of the society

【3】What might be the best title for the passage?

A.Do You Have a Right to Be Anonymous? B.The Popularity of Social Media

C.Anonymous Apps, Good or Bad? D.A Debate on the Use of Apps

22、   Clothes are traditionally made of natural materials, such as cotton, leather and wool. They are all from plants or animals, but that doesn’t mean they’re friendly to the earth. For example, farmers have to use a lot of chemicals to grow cotton plants.
