My 16-year-old niece Jenny started using Facebook about half a year ago. At first, she loved using it very much because she could make so many new friends on it. However, as time went by, she used it___________ . You may wonder why. Well, it's because every time she used it, she became sad. It seemed to her that everyone using Facebook was living a perfect life___________ her. I don't think Jenny is the only one to have such a feeling.

In this day of social media, the whole "comparing thing" has gotten out of ___________. We are influenced daily by all kinds of things on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram where we see only the___________ parts of life. We see friends' baby pictures, beautiful new houses and "perfect" lives and we feel like we need to be farther along than ___________ we are. Just take a look at your social media account（账号）, and you see pictures of your coworker's "best vacation ever", your friend's "perfect" pictures___________ swimming clothes and a group of good friends all out, smiling, having the most amazing night. And then you compare your life to theirs.

But what you see is just a special second of their lives. Social media only gives us a look at them for a very short time. It ___________be lying and we never truly know the whole story.

We are so good at showing others on social media that everything is "fine", and we can never___________ judge what someone is dealing with just by looking at what they post on social media. Remember that someone who looks very well does not___________ that they are not dealing with something bigger under the surface.

You can never ______________ your inside with someone else's outside. So next time you find someone showing off something on social media, stopping feeling sad about yourself. It is important for us all to stay away from being fooled by such information. Perhaps all you see on it is just internet hoaxes(欺骗).

As Graduation Day approached the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautifully wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man’s name embossed in gold. Angry, he raised his voice to his father and said "With all your money, you give me a Bible? " and stormed out of the the house. Leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things. When he arrived at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. And as he did, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer’s name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired.
