Social media is one of the fastest-growing industries in today's world. A study conducted by the US pew Research Center showed that 92 percent of teenagers go online daily. The wide spread of social media has changed nearly all parts of teenagers' lives. * Changing relationships
High school student Elly Cooper from Illinois said social media often reduces face-to-face communication. "It makes in person relationships harder because of people's attention given to their phones instead of their boyfriends or girlfriends," Cooper said.

Negative comments also can do great damage to a teenager’s self-esteem. Teenagers who get negative comments can't help but feel hurt.
*Opening new doors
However, Armin Korsos, a student from Illinois, takes advantage of the comments
he receives over social media to improve his videos on the social networking site
Youtube. "Social media can help people show themselves and their talents to the world in a
way that has never been possible before,"Korsos said

China on Wednesday opened a website on the South China Sea, complete with historical maps, articles and research, according to the State Oceanic Administration (SOA).
Run by the National Marine Data & Information Service, the Chinese language site has 10 sections that cover basic information, news, historical archives（档案）, development and management, expert opinion, law and regulations, a timeline of major events, pictures and videos and Q&A. "
The South China Sea has drawn huge attention, but some information online is not accurate," said Zhang Haiwen, SOA official in charge of international cooperation.

According to Zhang, the website contains not only maps and archives but also exclusive analysis and expository articles based on experts' research of thousands of maps.
Zhang cited that a map often used by Vietnam to prove that it owned the Xisha Islands was actually pieced together by two maps, which have already been obtained by experts and might be used to refute(驳斥) the country's claim. Zhang said new findings will be published on the website once verified.
According to the SOA, information on the website must first be reviewed by an expert panel and be "comprehensive, authoritative, detailed and accurate."
"The website is founded with the aim of positively publicizing our policies, claims, historical proof, legal basis and international cooperation while serving as a reliable channel for domestic and overseas government departments, research groups and individuals to learn about the South China Sea," said SOA spokesman Shi Qingfeng

Nowadays, many middle school students like celebrating Western festivals, such as Christmas and April Fool’s Day.
In my opinion, celebrating Western festivals is a good way for middle school students to understand more about Western culture. At the same time, many Western festivals are very interesting.
However, there are also some disadvantages of celebrating Western festivals. For example, some students simply do it because Western festivals are popular among young people. In fact, they know nothing about the history of Western festivals. In some cases, students don’t want to celebrate our own traditional festivals because they think that traditional Chinese festivals are out of date.
I think we can combine them in a proper way.
