“Selfie”, taking a picture of yourself to post on social media, became an official word in the Oxford dictionary in 2013. The idea seems simple, just pose and snap a photo of yourself with your cell phone camera. How difficult could that be? But in 2014 it is reported that 15 people died while taking selfies. That number has risen each year since then. (5)39 deaths connected to selfies were reported in 2015. And, this year has seen more than 70 such deaths.
The researchers found that people who take selfies for sharing on social media often have narcissistic tendencies. The report says these people “use selfies as a form of self-identification and expression”. (6)They may take selfies in more dangerous settings because they seek greater attention. These dangerous situations can lead to injury, and even death. One example of a dangerous selfie in the study involved bicycle races. People sometimes get on the track to take a picture of themselves with the racing bicycles behind them. Crashes and injuries have resulted. Another example described people standing on train tracks trying to get a selfie as a train moves toward them from behind. (7)The most common cause of selfie death was falling from high places. It caused 32 of the 172 deaths during the last two and one-half years.
Questions 5 to 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.
5.How many deaths were caused by selfies in 2015?
6.Why do some people take selfies in dangerous settings?
7.What’s the most common cause of selfie death?
