A lot of kids dream of becoming Internet stars. Every day, they post videos online and hope to become the next Internet stars.
Kids who find success online don't always have special talents. Lia Marie Johnson once posted a funny video of herself eating something. More than a million people watched it! Should you try to become an Internet star? Read on to help you decide.
Bethany Mota is one of YouTube's biggest stars. She was 13 when she started posting videos about clothes and more. Today, she's 20, and she has over 9 million fans.
People who post the most popular videos on YouTube can make thousands of dollars. Experts have guessed that Bethany makes about $40,000 a month. She also has her own clothing line (服装品牌). Bethany won a Teen Choice Award, and she appeared on the TV show Dancing With the Stars.
There's another benefit of being an Internet star. “I'm my own boss,” Bethany says.
On the other hand, putting videos of yourself on the Internet can be risky. Being bullied (欺负) online is one of the biggest risks. A few years ago, a girl named Rebecca Black posted a music video called “Friday”. Many people hated it. Rebecca was bullied so badly that she left school without finishing her studies.
Becoming an Internet star isn't easy, either. In fact, very few people make any money on the Internet. And making videos takes a lot of time and hard work. Bethany says that even a five minute video takes days to create. That doesn't leave much time for school work, friends…or just being a kid.
The writer talks about the story of Rebecca to show ________.
A.the influence of music
B.the importance of education
C.the risk of posting videos online
D.the difficulty of making a music video
参考答案:C
