World travel has moved on to a new level as new websites appear to enable travelers to plan their trips online． Virtual（虚拟的）tourism is the latest name of the game and although relatively new， has seen some tourism websites grow to host over one million users．
Typically， this development features a website that contains the answers to almost any tourism question． Tips and information are not provided by a single source， such as the website host， but rather from travelers themselves---often in the thousands． This has proven to be exceptionally beneficial for would-be travelers who are seeking information on questions such as where to find the best museum or beach， whether it is better to tour Brussels with a bicycle or on foot， and which exchange rate bureaus are available in Italy． Questions about food and restaurants， tourist spots， safety， accommodation， and others are all answered． In addition， posted tips promote better preparation， such as what to pack when heading for Sicily．
Apart from the useful tips， visualimages and virtual tours have also been made available． If you'd like to visit the Eiffel Tower， it's a good idea to view the surrounding areas， to pick a safer train route， or to know that it's very close to the Seine River and that a walk along it would enhance the experience．
Virtual tours have sprung up globally． In South Africa， John Gore established the Virtual Tour Guide in November last year． On his blog， Gore was quoted as saying， "The world is panoramic（全景的）．"
"We are able to turn our heads and look in all directions and get a feel for where we are， but the typical photograph cannot show or describe that experience completely．"
However， there is an answer一technology makes it possible to share the world around us in a 360 degree panoramic way， which really makes the viewer feel as though he or she is really there．

BBullying（欺凌）among schoolchildren is nothing new． Calling someone names，stealing their possessions， threatening and even beating them up are all well-established bullying techniques． Yet for young people today there is a relatively new form of bullying which can occur even when the bullies are nowhere near their victims--- and it can have equal， if not more damaging effects．
Online-bullying is one of the downsides of new technology and involves using devices like mobile phones and computers． Online-bullies can strike at any time， no matter where they， or their victims are． About 22 percent of young people in the UK claim to have suffered from online-bullying．
Not only are online-bullies harder to avoid， they are also harder to catch． It is all too easy to send an anonymous（匿名的）threat by text on a pay-as-you-go phone with an unknown number． It takes no time at all to set up a false Facebook， Twitter， blog or social network account and to post an insulting message． And， if you know how to hide your IP address， you can upload an offensive video to a website like You Tube and your victim wouldn't know who to blame．
One of the most upsetting things about online-bullying is that it can involve more people than traditional forms of bullying． A bully can insult you or tell lies about you and share that information with the entire school at the touch of a button-and for some teenagers that is all too hard to bear． The UK Charity Beatbullying suggests that up to 44% of suicides among ten-to-fourteen-year-olds may be bullying-related．
The good news is that the world is starting to wise up to online-bullying． Schools and websites like http://www．chlidnet-int．org/ offer lots of advice and victim support and social network sites now advise users to think carefully about their privacy settings so that personal information is only shared with friends．



Which of the following is NOT the way of bullying according to Paragraph 1？ ______

A. Shouting abuse at somebody．
B. Stealing somebody's things．
C. Frightening somebody．
D. Makinga call to somebody．

C Most people may think that people who write computer code must be good at math and logical thinking． However， people who write computer code say that creativity is also an important quality for coding．
Software developers in the American state of California have created a game called Osmo Coding Jam． The game is designed to help children use the creative side of their minds as they learn to code． Children can play the game on iPads． There are many activities they can do by the game．
Tanya Dodge is the mother of two children， nine-year-old Dylan and his 11-year-old sister Meghan，who play the game． According to her， these activities give them important skills for the future． "It's an analytical skill that the kids are going to need to have as they grow up today"said Dodge．

Hu also sees a growing number of parents who feel that software code is a second language that children need to learn to succeed in future jobs． Tanya Dodge， the mother of Dylan and Meghan， consents． She said， "I think you're going to have to understand at some point the idea of coding will work well in the future．"
Hu also explained that very often kids grow up not understanding how a computer works or just thinking that it's like a magical machine． He said by breaking it down to a lower level， kids can understand that the computer isn't as smart as they think it is．
