This year the selfie earned its place as the Oxford English Dictionary’s 2013 Word Of The Year. It has taken over our culture --- and our smartphones. The rise of the selfie has become universal–between presidents, celebrities(名人) and citizens alike–and the trend is only continuing to grow.
A recent survey conducted by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that 54 percent of Internet users have posted original photos online. And of those hundreds of millions of photos, many are of selfie photos.
For example, currently there are nearly 62 million posted selfie photos on Instagram, the social media tool that has significantly contributed to the personal photo’s popularity. That figure, which continues to rise every day, doesn’t even b
egin to include the selfies shared on Facebook and Twitter.
What makes the selfie so attractive -- and why do we feel it a must to take one? According to Dr. Pamela Rutledge, psychologist and director of the Media Psychology Research Center, the desire to take, post and get “likes” on selfies goes back to a biological behavior of all humans.
“I think it influences our sense of social connection in the same way as it does when you go to a party and people say ‘Oh I love your dress,’” Rutledge told The Huffington Post. “Biological, social recognition is a real need and there is even an area of the brain that contributes to social activity.”
There is a way to adapt to the growing selfie culture. Whether you’re a selfie novice or an advanced poster, there are always things to be mindful of when you’re posting, Rutledge advises.
She offered two main principles to follow when it comes to posting on social media:
1. The Grandmother Rule
“Don’t post anything online, whether text or visual, that you don’t want grandmother or future employer to see,” Rutledge said. “Selfies especially.”
2. The Elevator Rule
“You wouldn’t say something in an elevator that you or no one else wants to hear -- the whole world of social media is an elevator,” Rutledge said. “Be aware of the breadth (宽度) of platform. It’s easy to think you’re sharing a photo with a few people, but Instagram is public and people can come across things.”
1.What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. The selfie is taking the lead.
B. Many people are fond of smartphones.
C. The selfie will take over everything.
D. The selfie is an important new word.
2. According to the passage, people like “selfie” so much, because they ___________.
A. want to show off their new dresses
B. need to be acknowledged in social life
C. desire to share good things
D. mean to amuse the public
3. The underlined word “novice” in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”.
A. greenhandB. publisher C. novelistD. celebrity
4.When it comes to posting on social media, Rutledge advises people to ______.
A. share photos only on Instagram
B. talk about your photos in an elevator
C. be cautious in posting things online
D. follow rules set by your grandmothers

Seoul
A dangerous new bird flu in South Korea has spread nationwide despite efforts to make on the virus．Authorities have killed 2.8 million household chickens and ducks since the outbreak began，and the flu has also killed dozens of Baikal teal and other migratory birds．As yet，there are no reports of human infections．Scientists are puzzling over where the H5N8 flu，never before seen in a highly pathogenic（病原的）form，originated．
Portland，Oregon
A tiny chub （鲦鱼)has bounced back from near extinction(灭绝) ．The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS)says populations of the Oregon chub are healthy enough to remove the 9-cm-long fish from its list of threatened and endangered wildlife．Last week’s announcement marks the first time an endangered fish has recovered enough to be delisted
After the 1940s, the chub populations dropped sharply from habitat damage by pollution and dams．When the fish was listed by FWS in 1993，only nine remained．Predation(捕食)by large-mouth bass and other non-native fishes was the largest threat to the remaining chub．
Since then, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and other groups started 20 new populations of the chub in predator-free ponds Changes to dam management have lowered the threat to remaining habitat．
Mexico City
The axolotl salamander’s only known home in the wild，the Xochimilco canals of Mexico City，has become increasingly polluted，but recent reports of the salamander’s extinction have been overstated．
Two weeks after announcing that months of searching the canals hadn’t turned up any axolotls，scientists in Mexico City have some good news：two of the unique salamanders were spotted on 4 February “There’s been an alarming reduction in population．”says Luis Zambrano, a biologist at the National University of Mexico，“but I can guarantee that is not yet extinct in the wild．”
