Ⅱ.[2017·重庆]阅读理解
A 12-year-old girl from Virginia, US, never thought that a simple message she put online could bring her big problems.She posted the words, “Killing.Meet me in the library on Tuesday”, with three emojis（表情符号） of a gun, a knife and a bomb（炸弹） on Instagram, a social media（社交媒体）.She was told that she broke the law because of threatening（威胁） her school.
This problem is not far away from us.Not long ago, Ni Hanxiang, a Chinese student at a university in the US, was sent back to China after expressing on social media that he would kill his teachers if he failed to pass his exams.
In China, posting threatening words online is also against the law.In 2013, Wu Hongfei, a singer, got into trouble for saying on Weibo that she wanted to blow up a building.
“Threatening happens not only face to face but also through the Internet, social media and the telephone,” said Mr.Cao, a lawyer from Chongqing.“Although the law of China protects people’s right of free speech, it doesn’t include words that threaten others’ lives and national safety.”
“Some people may not mean to threaten.They may just be trying to say ‘I’m strong’, ” said Fred Pratt, a lawyer from the US.
