（吉隆坡9日讯）自从她的名字出现在大马教育文凭（SPM）英文试题中所虚构的角色以后，来自伦敦的滑伞运动爱好者劳拉·梅莉莎·威廉姆斯（Laura Melissa Williams）意外成为“大马热搜人物”，她的社交媒体Instagram平台顿时涌入超过4万8000则留言，有鼓励赞美的话，却也有污秽的字眼。

梅莉莎在Instagram发文向大马考生致谢：“所有大马教育文凭考生，你们好”，感谢大马人给予她美好的留言，并对这些充满积极正面的留言深表感动。

她还透露，她曾到访马来西亚观光，也喜欢这个国家。

不过，她也收到不少负面的信息，企图打击她，甚至对她的心理健康造成伤害。“社交媒体上需要同理心，毕竟我们都只是普通人。”

Hello to all SPM students in Malaysia. I woke up 2 days ago to find out I’d become very popular in Malaysia and was receiving thousands of messages, memes and comments on Instagram and Twitter. I was linked to a case study in the SPM English exam paper about a 16 year old paraglider called Melissa that had an accident while flying, that every 17 year old in your country had to answer. As you’ve probably realised by now, the Melissa in your exam paper has nothing to do with me – I simply happen to be a female paraglider – who loves the sport – and whose middle name is Melissa. Since all this started 48 hours ago I’ve had over 150,000 comments, likes and tweets – which – to be honest – is totally surreal… and quite overwhelming too. A lot of your messages have been beautiful and kind and I’ve been encouraged by their positivity – thank you. I’ve visited Malaysia before and love your country and I’m glad that so many of you are interested in trying paragliding. It’s a great sport ? However, some of the messages I’ve received haven’t been so nice: nasty messages like these are hurtful and can cause mental health issues. As a 30-something woman, I am old enough to see through this but if I was, in fact, a 16 year old girl, it's very likely this would be a different story – those who posted these comments should think before they act in future. C’mon, please #haveaheart – we’re all just humans after all ❤️❤️ Coincidentally, I’m an artist who works on projects that focus on the fusion of technology and human behaviour and how it impacts on our bodies, hearts and minds. You have given me the most amazing source material for behaviours on social media and an insight into what it feels like to be someone who’s encountered cyber bullying. As I’m sure you’ll understand, I’m not going to be posting on here over the next few days while this calms down. In the meantime, I wish you all the best of luck with the rest of your exams! Bye for now x #haveaheart #heart #theheartmatters #cyberbullying #malaysia #spm19 #art #artist #british #uk #paragliding #flylikeabird #thiswomancan @fly_sussex_paragliding

她说，在SPM英文试题中出现16岁滑伞运动爱好者梅莉莎在飞行时遭遇意外，但她并非当事者，也不是试题中所指的“梅莉莎”。

“我只是一个纯粹喜好滑伞运动的女生，我喜欢运动，刚好，我的名字也叫梅莉莎。”

也是一名艺术家的梅莉莎表示，她将这些负面情绪定为激励，让她继续往艺术家下一个阶段迈进。

她说，她专注于技术和人类行为的融合，并思考它对人们身体、心灵和思想带来的影响。

“你们给了我最棒的社交媒体行为素材，也让我洞察遭到网络霸凌的感受。”

梅莉莎说，在她Instagram的留言当中，有人希望可以看到试题中所提到那位“虚构人物”的真实生活，但也有人认为该试题非常困难，而决定要贬低她。

也有其他用户为梅莉莎辩护，并为马来西亚同胞所发表的言论道歉。

其中一位大马人阿尔文古玛则在社交媒体上录制视频，并向他人展示在社交媒体上可接受或不可接受的行为。

梅莉莎在最新的贴文中也有超过4000则留言，都是支持她反对网络霸凌的立场。
