An American novelist Jonathan Franzen tells readers that he appreciated real, printed newspapers more “as the Internet rose to power, disseminating information that could be trusted as little as it cost to read it.”
That’s 【小题1】 turn of phrase that we could apply to the discussion of Internet rumors(谣言)and their impact: this kind of information can 【小题2】 (trust) as little as it costs to read it. That is, we can’t trust it at all. Franzen may be overstating the case to make a point. There are, after all, plenty of ways that the Internet has provided access to information that is trustworthy and accurate, not to mention helpful. The problem is 【小题3】 the Internet also has flooded our lives with less accurate and less trustworthy material.
“Digital literacy”is the name for this 21st century skill, and it is being as fundamentally important as literacy itself. So 【小题4】 do we tell the real from the false?
Like anything, it takes practice at asking questions and, above all, paying attention to details 【小题5】 (give) already. Who is the author? Do you know a real name or just a username(用户名)?Why 【小题6】 you trust this person? Does he or she provide some credentials (证明)? There are big differences in the domains, and it is important to understand 【小题7】 .
It was 【小题8】 (easy) to tell a trustworthy source in the days before the Internet. Then, we all knew which newspapers had the highest standards and which ones were more for sensation and entertainment than for real news and mentary.a
