Jeremy looked across the hot grassy land in an old truck. South Africa was a long way from his hometown in America. Jeremy hardly ever spent time with his father,a famous wildlife photographer(攝影師). Jeremy thought his father's job seemed hard and boring.

As the truck moved along the rough road,the door fell off!And their guide Makalu threw the door into the back of the truck.

They stopped near a watering hole. Makalu said he was the friend with the elephants here. Before long,Jeremy saw a small group of elephants walk toward the water. Dad jumped out of the truck and focused his camera on the largest elephant.

Jeremy noticed a baby elephant walking between two adults. The larger elephants walked into the water happily. They drew water into their trunks(象鼻) and shot it into the air. Then the baby elephant dropped into the water and the water was too deep for it.

The baby elephant was in trouble. It tried to climb out of the water, but the bank was too steep(陡峭的). Other elephants tried pulling the baby up, but they failed again and again. The mother elephant shouted.

Jeremy took the broken door from the back of the truck. Makalu saw what Jeremy was planning and ran to help. Together they pulled the door down to the water. Makalu comforted the mother elephant.

The mother knew Makalu and trusted him. Jeremy moved the door onto the bank. Its mother pushed from behind. The baby stepped onto the door and began to walk. Three more steps and it was safe. The other elephants gathered around the baby, touching it with their trunks.

Sophie, a 14-year-old British girl, suddenly changed her behavior in class. She lost interest in studies and would sit in the corner with her head mostly down.

Ethan Miller, one of Sophie’s teachers, discovered the reason: she had been bullied(欺凌) online. Sophie was receiving abusive(辱罵) messages on her phone and on Facebook. Miller shared Sophie’s story on the official website of The Children’s Society, a children’s charity in the UK. Sophie was not alone. One in three young people, in 30 countries, said they have experienced online bullying. Twenty percent of those bullied students were not willing to go to school because of it, according to a report in September. The study surveyed more than 170,000 young people aged 13-24 from countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and South America. Seventy-five percent of them said social media, like Facebook and Twitter, are the most common places for online bullying. The growth of social media has left many young people hurt by online bullying, including unfriendly and abusive messages, comments and pictures.

The Internet world makes it easier for people to communicate with each other, but there is more danger for young people as well — and it is surprising that online bullying troubles many young people more than anything else. What’s more, online bullying could lead to serious results for young people. Such bullying makes young people more than twice as likely to hurt themselves or even kill themselves, according to a 2018 study by the university of Oxford, UK. The research also found that young people facing online bullying were not as likely to ask for help as those bullied by traditional ways.

To deal with the problem, UNICEF has called for national helplines to support people who are bullied, along with training for teachers and parents to prevent and deal with online bullying.

Here is some advice to keep yourself safe on the Internet:

1. Make sure that you’re careful and respectful to others, even if you don’t share similar opinions, values or beliefs.

2. If you experience online bullying, the best response to a bully is no response(回應(yīng)) at all.

3. Keep a record of anything that shows proof(證據(jù)) of online bullying, like screenshots. You can use this to report and stop them.

1.What did Sophie do when facing bullying on the Internet?

A.She told her teacher about it. B.She isn’t willing to go to school.

C.She had no interest in studies. D.She would never sit in the corner.

2.The underlined word “discovered” in paragraph 2 most probably means _________.

A.find out B.hide C.protect D.work out

3.What action has UNICEF done to help with online bullying?

A.Respecting all the people around.

B.Improving young people’s studies.

C.Training teachers and parents to prevent bullying.

D.Keeping a record of anything that shows proof of online bullying.

4.How does online bullying trouble young people?

A.Make them willing to go to school. B.Make them unwilling to ask for help.

C.Make it easier for them to communicate. D.Make it impossible for them to hurt themselves.

5.Why does the writer write the report about online bullying?

A.To study the problem of online bullying.

B.To help teachers deal with students’ problems.

C.To tell people what UNICEF has done for children.

D.To help do with online bullying that troubles young people.
