The Popularity of Microblog

微博的流行

In recent years, microblog has become very popular. More and more people have created their own microblogs. They use microblogs to reveal their inner voice, or collect and share thoughts and things they find interesting. In brief, microblog is an online instant notepad or a frequently updated personal page.

近年来，微博已经变得非常流行。越来越多的人已经建立了自己的微博。他们利用微博来表达心声，或收集和分享他们觉得有趣的想法和事情。简言之，微博是在线的即时笔记本或经常更新的个人主页。

Why does microblog become so popular in such a short time? To begin with, it is the widespread of the Internet that provides a platform for the appearance and popularity of microblog. What's more, microblog has no fixed rules and need no professional knowledge and skills, which enables millions of people to create their own microblogs as their wishes and have a voice and connect with others. Finally, microblog covers all kinds of topics from daily life to political forums, from individual thoughts to world events. Among millions of rnicroblogs, you can always find something you are interested in.

为什么微博在这么短的时间内变得如此流行?首先，互联网的普及为微博提供了出现和流行的平台。此外，微博没有固定的规则，不需要专业知识和技能，这使得数百万人能够按照自己的意愿创建微博，从而有自己的声音，并能与他人联系。最后，微博涵盖了各种话题:从日常生活到政治论坛，从个人想法到世界大事。在数百万的微博中，您总能找到您感兴趣的。

However, microblog has some problems. On the one hand, plagiarism in microblog is not unusual. The protection of microblog copyright cannot be guaranteed. On the other hand, many microblog contents are in a mess, and some even include unhealthy things. Therefore, microblog still has a long way to go before it becomes mature.(201 words)

不过，微博也存在一些问题。一方面，微博中的抄袭现象并不少见，博客的版权保护无法保证。另一方面，许多微博的内容很混乱，有些甚至涉及不健康的东西。因此，微博还有很长的路要走才能变得成熟。
