2.Read the text below and match underlined words/phrases with their meanings.
Cyber-bullying is a form of online harassment of a person. This problem was almost unheard of
only 15 years ago. However, more and more people are now using the Internet. This is creating
new problems for society. On the Internet, it is easier for people to hide their identity. This can
encourage bullies to use the Internet to engage in this kind of harmful behavior. There are many
ways that cyber-bullies use the Internet to hurt their victim.
Cyber-bullies might use social media sites like Facebook or Twitter to make hurtful comments
about another person. They may spread rumors or lies about someone, which can damage the
victim’s reputation. Cyber-bullies often pose as another person in order to try and make their
victim say something embarrassing. They might also try to trick their victim into believing they
are in a romantic relationship or friendship that is not real. Another form of cyber-bullying is to
post embarrassing photographs or videos of the victim without asking permission. These can
remain on the Internet for years so they are very distressing for victims.
This type of bullying is becoming more common, especially among young people. A 2010 CBS
News report showed that 42% of young Americans have been the victim of cyber-bullying. Some
victims of cyber-bullying have even committed suicide. Many governments are trying to make
online harassment illegal. Forty-five states in America have passed laws to prevent online
bullying. Canada is currently considering passing a strict law against cyber-bullying. It will take
some time before society learns how to cope with the potential drawbacks of this new
technology.
