Episodio 6. Inventos españoles que cambiaron el mundo

Every time you're online, you are bombarded by pictures, articles, links and videos trying to tell their story. Unfortunately, not all of these stories are true. Sometimes they want you to click on another story or advertisement at their own site, other times they want to upset people for political reasons. These days it's so easy to share information. These stories circulate quickly, and the result is … fake news.

There is a range of fake news: from crazy stories which people easily recognise to more subtle types of misinformation. Experts in media studies and online psychology have been examining the fake news phenomenon. Read these tips, and don't get fooled!

1. Check the source
Look at the website where the story comes from. Does it look real? Is the text well written? Are there a variety of other stories or is it just one story? Fake news websites often use addresses that sound like real newspapers, but don't have many real stories about other topics. If you aren't sure, click on the 'About' page and look for a clear description of the organisation.

2. Watch out for fake photos
Many fake news stories use images that are Photoshopped or taken from an unrelated site. Sometimes, if you just look closely at an image, you can see if it has been changed. Or use a tool like Google Reverse Image search. It will show you if the same image has been used in other contexts.

3. Check the story is in other places
Look to see if the story you are reading is on other news sites that you know and trust. If you do find it on many other sites, then it probably isn't fake (although there are some exceptions), as many big news organisations try to check their sources before they publish a story. 

4. Look for other signs
There are other techniques that fake news uses. These include using ALL CAPS and lots of ads that pop up when you click on a link. Also, think about how the story makes you feel. If the news story makes you angry, it's probably designed to make you angry.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊游戏。
在我小时候，小孩子没有手机和ipad，我们的游戏是更传统的。那个时候最流行的游戏是《老鹰捉小鸡》，有一个小朋友当老鹰，一个小朋友当母鸡，其他小朋友躲在后面当小鸡。母鸡要保护小鸡不被老鹰捉走，被捉到的小鸡就输了。大家在草地上跑来跑去，又紧张又好玩。我们还有其他的游戏，例如：跳绳、打弹珠（也叫打玻璃珠）和打扑克牌等等。
现在的小孩子更多的时间花在学习上，没有那么多时间在室外玩。他们很小就有手机，可以在手机上玩游戏，看视频。因此，近视戴眼镜的小孩子也越来越多。
我觉得我们小时候可以玩的东西更多，学习压力比较小。现在的孩子有机会学习更多的东西，压力也比较大。真希望他们也有机会做一些我们小时候的游戏，虽然简单，但是很快乐。
你小时候喜欢做什么游戏呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
