Since 2017, short videos have got millions of views online in China.1.短视频已成为中国现在最受欢迎的交流方式之一。Many people create and share short videos on popular video apps (应用程序) like Douyin. You can even add music and special effects to your videos. 2. The videos usually last l5 seconds to a few minutes. They show people doing activities like cooking, exercising and singing.
3. Teenagers especially enjoy these videos. Because the videos let teenagers see funny and exciting things they don’t usually see. Many teens like to share the fun things they do with others as well. For example, a famous blogger named Li Ziqi has posted videos showing traditional Chinese culture. This has won her many fans.
However, the videos can also cause trouble.4. —些学生花太多的时间看他们。They don’t have enough time to study. To deal with this problem, Douyin added a new function (功能) in April, 2018.5.

Gean didn’t have that safety net on the worst day of her life back in January 2021. That day, Gean’s husband of 58 years died in their home. When police arrived at the scene, they discovered Gean and her husband had been living in conditions so bad, so they decided the house was not safe and must be repaired at once.

28、 More and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, teaching tools like iPads are used in a lot of courses, i【1】 language, history and science.
Many teachers are supporters of using iPads in language learning. They say that students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom. Instead of spending valuable class time listening to texts or watching teaching videos, students can do this on their own and come to class prepared for discussion.
The teachers also say that iPads allow students to learn at their own pace. Some students might listen to a dialogue only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same dialogue again and again to understand it. Using iPads is especially h【2】 to the students who are learning a language at different paces.
The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn (like listening to stories and watching movies). The class has become much more interesting and creative.
There are other advantages for students. By using iPads, they can pay some attention to the material and learn more. Teaching notes are s【3】 in their iPads and are easy to find. Some students spend more time studying now. “I can listen to my language material or watch teaching videos on the bus, instead of having to wait till I get home,” a student explained.
But many adults c【4】 that technologies like iPads are doing harm to students. They worry that students might use iPads to download teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some believe that iPads may separate students from each other. If a student spends more time watching videos on an iPad, he will have f【5】 chances to have face-to-face communication with others.
However, technologies are a【6】 a part of most students’ day-to-day lives. As for cheating, teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when they take exams. Education needs to make c【7】 with the times as technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.
