24、 Name-calling, teasing, pushing and fighting-whether you have gone through it or not, it is quite definite that these are the things that turn up in your mind when you hear the word "bullying". However, many of us know little about the serious, lasting harms bullying could cause.
If you've watched 13 Reasons Why, you'll understand the impacts that bullying can have. The second season of the popular US teenage drama was released on May 18. It tells the story of Hannah Baker, a high school student who takes her own life after she's picked on by fellow students, while others stand by and do nothing to help her.
One of the important messages audiences could get from the show is to treat people with kindness and respect. "It teaches us that every single thing we say and do has an impact on others, "news platform Odyssey concluded.
Some may think 13 Reasons Why exaggerates(夸大)the seriousness of school bullying, but according to the US National Center for Educational Statistics, more than 20 percent of US students were bullied in 2016, and only 36% of this group reported it.
NBA player Gerald Green opened up about being called "alien hands" during his teenage years due to his big hands. "Being bullied was embarrassing, " he said. "I still remember shying away from crowds and walking around with my hands in my pockets to evade the attention from my peers. "To get away with the teasing, he found his motivation by playing basketball and making a career out of it. But not everyone is so lucky to discover a release.
According to statistics released by the US government, if someone prevents a bully, there's a 57% chance that the bullying will stop within 10 seconds. So if you ever witness bullying, consider stepping up and supporting the victim. As US actor Brandon Flynn, who stars in 13 Reasons Why, said, "Just because you're not the one getting bullied, it doesn't mean it's not your problem. "
【1】What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To add more statistics.
B.To call on eyewitnesses to take action.
C.To introduce a new topic of the discussion.
D.To give people advice about dealing with bullying.
【2】What does the US National Center for Educational Statistics indicate?
A.Bullying isn't a serious problem in many schools.
B.School bullying can't cause too much pain.
C.Only a few people are concerned about bullying.
D.Many people who're bullied choose not to seek help.
【3】What does the underlined word in Para. 5 mean?
A.Attract. B.Focus. C.Avoid. D.Keep.
【4】What does the text tell us about 13 Reasons Why?
A.It overstates school bullying.
