B4S2 - Listening 2

Gaby: Hi, Kim! What are you doing?

Kim: Hi! I’m doing some research about social networks. I want to see their impact on modern life.

Gaby: How interesting! People can see Facebook on a home computer, a laptop, or a tablet, and I think they have improved some aspects of life.

Kim: Really? How did Facebook make your life easier?

Gaby: Well, it helped me to be in touch with some relatives that live in other countries just by using my smartphone. Besides that, I have met people with similar interests.

Kim: So, Facebook is a good platform for you, isn’t it?

Gaby: Yes. I only had a few negative experiences with some groups and users, but nothing important.

Kim: What kind of negative experiences?

Gaby: Well, there are people who create fake accounts to spam other users.

Kim: That sounds annoying. And what about fake news?

Gaby: There are tons of fake news on Facebook, but people shouldn’t believe everything they read.

Kim: You’re right! There are always people that want to get the attention with fake news.

Gaby: If you want, I can show you my Facebook account on a computer, so you can see what I’m saying.

Kim: Of course, let’s go to the computer lab.

Gaby: Sure!
