三、阅读理解。
Falling down in public is terrible for most people. However, a new social media craze(狂热)
called the "Falling Stars Challenge(炫富摔)" has turned falling into something fun to do.
The craze began in Russia. It was most popular among young people. They posted pictures of
themselves lying face down as though they had just fallen over. Some items like handbags,
decorations and money were spread out on the ground around them in the photos. They shared these
photos on the Internet to flaunt their wealth.
The craze soon became popular around the world. In China, however, it is taking on a new
meaning. People are using it to flaunt their hobbies and talents. The items in their pictures show
what they do for a living and what they have achieved-in their work.
All kinds of people are taking part in it. For example, students fall down onto textbooks and
test papers. Police officers fall in front of their police cars with handcuffs in their hands. Famous
people are taking on the challenge too. Writer Liu Tong took a fall with copies of his books.
More than l.08 million Chinese have taken on this challenge on Sina Weibo. Their pictures
have been viewed more than 2.22 billion times. The Internet users also discuss these photos. Most
of them speak highly of the craze. One Sina Weibo user wrote, "This shows the positive energy of
fighting and working hard. Cheer for these young people!" However, some also think the craze is
just another example of a successful Internet meme( 互 联 网 段 子 ). They think people are just
imitating(模仿) others.

One day, June Green visited the family doctor Edward Smith. Dr Smith was an old man with a
long beard.
"What's the problem, June?" Dr Smith asked her.
"I'm very worried about my son Teddy, " Mrs Green said. "I can't stop him from gambling(赌
博). He spends all his money betting(打赌) on horse races. And not just on horse races, he bets bet
on anything. It doesn't matter what it is."
"I've cured(治愈) people of gambling before," Dr Smith said. "Send him to me. I'll talk to him."
A week later, Dr Smith spoke to Mrs Green on the phone. "I think I've cured your son," he said.
"That's wonderful. How did you do it?" asked Mrs Green.
"Well, " the doctor said, "it was very strange. While we were talking, he was looking at my
beard. Suddenly he said, ‘I bet you $ 50 that's a false beard.’"
"Oh no!" Mrs Green cried.
"It's all right, " the doctor said. "I knew what to do. ‘My beard isn't a false one, ’ I told him.
‘And I can prove(证明) it. ’ ‘Can I pull your beard and find out?’ your son asked me." Then Dr
Smith continued, "I thought this was my chance to teach him a lesson," so I said, ‘Yes. You can pull
my beard.’ Well, he pulled it, and soon found out it was real." The doctor laughed, "He had to pay
me $ 50. That should cure his gambling."
"Doctor, " Mrs Green said, "you're wrong. You haven't cured him. You've made him even
worse."
"How can that be?"
"The day before he went to see you, he bet me $100 that you would ask him to pull your beard!"
