Since last year, short videos have become popular online. Many people make and share short videos on popular video apps like Tik Tok and Kuaishou. On these popular apps, you can even add music and special effects(特效) to your videos. A video usually lasts 15 seconds to a few minutes. It shows people's daily activities like cooking, exercising and singing. So it can attract many people.
Teenagers enjoy these videos very much. More than 50 per cent of junior high school students enjoy watching these short videos. About 47 per cent of them have shared their own videos on Tik Tok.
The videos let teenagers see a lot of funny and exciting things. Many teenagers like to share the fun things they do with others as well. For example, a 12-year-old user named Xiao Qianyu has shared videos about her dancing. They make her win many fans.
However, the videos can also cause trouble. Some students spend too much time watching them and do not have enough time to study. Besides, there are some videos that are not appropriate for teenagers. They may learn bad things from them.
To solve these problems, Tik Tok added a new function(功能)in April. The app won't work if someone uses it for over two hours a day. In the same month, the government asked companies to control these apps and take out harmful videos. The apps have been checked and controlled much more strictly since then, the Beijing News reported.
( )1. What can people do on popular video apps
A. Create some funny videos and share them.
B. Make money and attract a lot of fans.
C. Cook, exercise, sing and dance.
D. Study online and learn something useful.
( )2. How many percentages of junior high school students haven't shared their own videos on Tik Tok
A. About 47%. B. About 50%. C. About 53%. D. Less than 60%.
( )3. What does the underlined word “appropriate” in Paragraph 4 mean
