Reading Report 3
Social Media
By______________
Year ago, TV and radio were the main forms of electronic media.
Back then, cellphones were just phones—they carried only voice
transmissions, one function. However, today people can take a call,
listen to music, watch a tv shows or movies, play a video game, text e-
mail to friends, take a picture, and access the Internet—all on a small
machine that people can carry in their pocket.
Social media had changed people life. One aspect about this is the
number of people that is possible to interactive in social media. I say,
“number of people”, but people often say “friends”. In the other hand,
many experts say that looking at the exciting photos others have posted
can lead to negative comparisons. After all, it may seem as if everyone
else were having a good time, while the own life of one is a bored
routine. Social median doesn´t have a correct concept about friendship.
Friendships take time and work, so realistically people may only have a
few. It’s not about numbers but about quality.
In the other hand, Internet makes it possible for us to have
knowledge about almost anything, anywhere, at any time. It is not
surprising that people everywhere in the world use it to communicate.
According with a magazine “The invention of printing, centuries ago,
changed the way in which people communicate with one another. The
invention of the Internet in modern times has been compared to that.
This practical tool has been called a global tool of communication, and
rightly so”.
