EXPOSITION TEXT



Nowadays people use the Internet to communicate with others. Many of them share their feelings, ideas, opinions, and problems in social media. In fact, sharing problems on social media embarrasses themselves and really annoys others.

Those who share their problems on social networks really irritate other people. Social networks are not the place for sharing personal problems. Reading someone's personal problems on the Internet is really a nuisance.

Besides, one who shares problems on social media only shames himself. Other people who read about them will think that he has a miserable life. It will be bad if those who read his status are his boss or coworkers.

In my opinion, netizens should not share their problems on social networks. It is better for them to write their feelings in a diary or have a private talk with friends. Personal problems shared on the social media only show their negative side.

 FOX AND A CAT


One day, a cat and a fox were having a conversation. The fox, who was a conceited creature, boasted how clever she was. “Why, I know at least a hundred tricks to get away from our mutual enemies, the dogs,” she said.

“I know only one trick to get away from dogs,” said the cat. “You should teach me some of yours!”.

“Well, maybe someday, when I have the time, I may teach you a few of the simpler ones”, replied the fox airily.

Just then they heard the barking of a pack of dogs in the distance. The barking grew louder and louder – the dogs were coming in their direction! At once the cat ran to the nearest tree and climbed into its branches, well out of reach of any dog. “This is the trick I told you about, the only one I know”, said the cat. “Which one of your hundred tricks are you going to use?”.

The fox sat silently under the tree, wondering which trick she should use. Before she could make up her mind, the dogs arrived. They fell upon the fox and tore her to pieces.

Moral: A single plan that works is better than a hundred doubtful plans.

Hero Fiennes Tiffin

Hero Beauregard Faulkner Fiennes Tiffin (born 6 November 1997) is an English actor and model. He is known for his starring role as Hardin Scott in the After film series. He also portrayed 11-year-old Tom Riddle, the young version of the antagonist Lord Voldemort, in the film Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Early life

Hero Fiennes Tiffin was born in London on 6 November 1997, the son of film director Martha Fiennes and cinematographer George Tiffin. He has an older brother named Titan and a younger sister named Mercy.

He earned the part of Tom Riddle (the young Voldemort) in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince over thousands of young actors who auditioned for the role, though at least one publication alleged that his family connections alone landed him the part. Director David Yates said he was cast due to his ability to find "the darker space" in his line readings, and that he did not get the role due to his relation to Ralph Fiennes, his uncle who plays Voldemort, but admitted the family resemblance was a "clincher".Yates described Fiennes Tiffin as "very focused and disciplined" and said he "got the corners and dark moods and odd spirit of the character" as well as having a "wonderful haunted quality that seemed to bring Tom Riddle alive on-screen for us".

In 2018, Fiennes Tiffin was cast in the lead role of Hardin Scott in the film After, based on the New York Times best-selling book of the same name by Anna Todd.

Personal life

Fiennes Tiffin prefers to keep a low profile when not promoting his work. Having only one active social media account, he told W magazine in a 2019 interview, "I had all of those apps ages ago, and then I deleted them when I realised I was just wasting my time. But I kept instagram because my agents advised me to, and I completely understand and agree that it's such a useful, powerful tool, even though you can kind of get lost in it. I just made it to keep up with my friends, but now that so many fans follow me, it's a slightly different audience.
