四、阅读回答问题

Chinese young people use social apps (应用软件) a lot now, such as Tik Tok (抖音) and Kuaishou. Some think it is fun to share short videos about their lives. Some have other purposes.

A 12-year-old user named Elsa has up to 2.7 million followers on Tik Tok. The girl has shared videos about her dancing studies since last July. “I feel really happy to go on sharing happiness with other people by short videos,” said Elsa.

A group of users depend on them to get information. To some other users, they have a different purpose. “I am a very impatient person. I prefer to watch short videos of wonderful parts in a concert or a TV play,” said Wang Zhihao.

However, some young Chinese feel bored with some short videos. “Many short videos are almost the same, so I think watching them is a waste of time. Also, I really don’t like some videos because they show strange even dangerous things,” said Wen Nan, another college student.

Recently, something else has happened. Some videos are telling people what products are worth buying. Some users buy the products after watching them, but they should think twice. If they don’t think carefully, they may get fake (假的) products and regret soon.
