Many parents set rules for their children’s online activity, such as limiting ( 限 制 ) the amount of time they can spend online. They complain that their parents share too many photos of them online.

In a 2016 study, it was found that parents in the US share an average (平均) of 116 photos of their kids after they were born. Most were taken before the child turned 8 years old. Many of the photos showed kids in embarrassing ( 尴 尬 的 ) situations like having food all over their faces. Quartz reported.

Parents do like to share their child’s progress as he or she grows up. But their kid doesn’t like it as much. In a survey of UK children between the ages of 12 and 16, 70 percent said they felt their parents didn’t respect (尊重) their online privacy (隐私) according to Digital Parenting Magazine.

In addition, many kids said that other students at school sometimes pick on them after their parents post photos online, CBS News noted. In one case, a girl was bullied (欺负) by boys at school after they found her mom’s blog. There were many family photos in the blog.

“Each time a photo or video is uploaded, it creates a digital footprint of a child, which can follow them into adult life,” a spokeswoman for a leading children’s charity in the UK said. “It’s always important to ask children for their permission before posting or videos of them.”

The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB), the major construction work on the world’s cross-sea bridge, which connects Zhuhai in Guangdong Province with Hong Kong and Macao, was completed on Oct 23, 2018. Construction began in December 2009 at Zhuhai. The Y-shaped bridge starts from Lantau Island in Hong Kong with branches to Zhuhai and Macao.

More than 400000 tons of steel have been used for the 6.7 km undersea tunnel land 22.9 km bridge, enough to build 60 Eiffel Towers. British newspaper The Guardian named the mega structure ( 巨 型 建 筑 ) one of its “seven wonders of the modern world near completion.”

The bridge will cut travel time from Hong Kong to both Zhuhai and Macao from the current three hours by road or one hour by sea to a half-hour drive. It will bring people in Hong Kong, Macao and Guangdong within a “one-hour living circle”, which is expected to attract more visitors to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. The bridge will not only be a transport link. “It will be a social, economic, cultural, and tourism connection ( 联 系 ) among the three areas.” said Yu Lic, deputy director of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Authority.

Su Quanke chief engineer with the administration bureau of the bridge, said the project has made history in many aspects. “With a series of world advanced anti-erosion (抗腐蚀) and earthquake-resistant measures, the bridge can be used for 120 years,” he said. “If it were not for the progress of ‘Made in China’, we couldn’t possibly complete the construction in such a short time, The China technology and China standard set by the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge will influence ( 影响) the world market.”
