To protect your account, repost this warning “KeepMyAccountSafe.” Every few months, it happens againdozens of annoying posts from my kids friends suddenly start to appear on my Instagram news feed.According to a new study by

14、Stanford University, most kids dont know what news is false.Researchers asked more than 7,800 middle school and high school students to complete 56 tasks, like distinguishing an advertisement from a real news story on a website and determining which blog in a series was most reliable.They found that

15、 students judged the credibility of blogs based not on the source of the material, but on how much detail they contained, or whether a large photo was attached.“Many people assume that because young people are fluent in social media, they can distinguish fake news, but our work shows the opposite to

16、 be true,” wrote the lead study author Sam Wineburg, a professor at Stanfords Graduate School of Education.Both Google and Facebook are now taking steps to prevent misleading news from making its way on their platforms, but they wont be able to eliminate it completely.That is why its now more import

Some of them refuse to admit the serious threat of human activities to the environment and they are tired of people who disagree with them. Those peop

21、le spread nothing but bad news about the environment, say skeptics. The “eco-guilt” brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting world views.Perhaps that explains why a new book by Bjorn Lomborg received so much pu

22、blicity. That book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, declares that it describes the “real state of the world” as fine. Of course, another explanation is the deep pockets of some big businesses with special interests. Indeed, Mr. Lomborgs views are similar to those of some industry-funded organization

23、s, which start huge activities through the media to make the public confused about issues like global warming.So it was strange to see Mr. Lomborgs book go largely unchallenged in the media though his beliefs were contrary to most scientific opinions.
