16．Comparing ourselves with others isn't a recent phenomenon-it's part of our culture．As soon as we're able to form our own thoughts and opinions，we start comparing．Who's taller？Who's better at sports？Who has more friends？
Unlike other childish habits，the urge to measure up（攀比） doesn't ever really go away．In fact，it only increases when we become teens．"At a younger age，I found myself wanting to be cool and wondering why I wasn't that cool，"said a junior student Michael Torres．"So I began doing what they did in order to fit in with my own friends．"
We are flooded with the message that we should compare ourselves with others．Magazines，advertisements，stores-it becomes all about what other people have or what they've achieved．Social media adds another layer to the problem．Facebook，Twitter and QQ offer a constant stream of updates about the people around us．She got accepted to Harvard？He bought the brand new Nikes？They're dating？
"If I go on Facebook or Twitter and read about how wonderful everyone else is，I'm not feeling good about myself．It's going to make me feel worse，"said Mike Robbins，a senior student．"I try not to let things like that affect me，but in the modern world of technology it's hard not to take notice of what others are doing，and sometimes you want to be just like them．"
Before you get caught up in the comparison game，keep in mind one very important detail：When it comes to social media，we often present only the things we want people to see-the good fortunes，happy moments，delicious desserts and best smiles．
The deeper question is：Are people really posting things on social media that are true or are they simply doing it to present something to other people？It's what we do in our culture："Look how great I am，""Look how smart I am，""Look how happy I am，"and sometimes that's true，but in a lot of cases，it's not．
While comparing ourselves to others can inspire us to get ahead and work harder，it can also drive us crazy．Next time you find yourself wondering if you measure up，remember this：What we have is not a measure of who we are．We already have worth as an individual when we're born．Everything else is what people think of us．
28．When do we start to compare ourselves with others？D
A．When we go to junior schools．
B．When we were born into the world．
C．When we have Facebook or Tweeter．
D．When we have thoughts and opinions．

A．To show off their lives．
B．To get advice from readers．
C．To share happiness with others．
D．To communicate useful information．
