Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Биболетова, Бабушис 11 класс, Дрофа:
60 Read the texts and match the titles with the texts. There is one extra title.
A – 5) Going Mobile
We are living in a brand new world today. You may notice it everywhere: in public transport, in school hallways, in the streets of your city. An average smartphone user looks at the screen of his phone about 150 times a day. More and more people are watching news, reading books, buying things and paying bills through mobile devices. Recent survey revealed that the number of teenagers who used to be active in Facebook had sharply dropped. Where are they going instead? The answer is obvious: it’s mobile chat services and photo-sharing apps like Instagram and Snapshot.
B – 6) In Defense of Virtual Friendship
The world is becoming more and more digitalised which influences all areas of life. People tend to find friends online rather than in real life situations. Recent research shows that on average a person in a developed country has twice as many virtual friends as real ones. Some people claim that online friends are not real and you should go out with actual, live people. But the biggest advantage of this kind of interaction is that you are welcomed without judgment. It doesn’t matter what you are wearing and how much it costs. No one cares whether you are white or black, fat or skinny, old or young. You are accepted and you feel safe.
C – 1) The World Is Virtual, the Dangers Are Real
The information we tell the Internet about ourselves from where we live to where we go and who we meet is very handy for all kinds of virtual criminals. Cyber stalking, cyber bullying and cyber forgery are becoming common things nowadays. So it’s important to protect yourself in virtual world as well as you do in the real one. Think twice before uploading any personal information or pictures as they might be misused without your knowledge and
permission. Remember that everything you upload on the web will be there forever for the whole world to see.
D – 3) Friends Are More Important Than You May Realise
Many studies over the years have shown that people generally live longer, happier and healthier if they have strong social support from friends. Interestingly, it’s good not only for your soul, but body too. People with a large network of friends tend to outlive their counterparts by more than 20%. Health benefits of friendship include reducing blood pressure, relieving stress and even reducing your chances of catching a cold. So when next time you make a resolution to start a healthy life by going on a diet or taking physical exercise, don’t forget to put «making friends» on your list.
E - 2) Love Is More Important than Friendship
Scientists have found that love has some negative effect on friendship. It takes time away from seeing friends so when a romantic relationship enters your life, it usually reduces the list of your close friends. Researchers have calculated that on average we have five close friends but when we are in a relationship, this number goes down to three. Both men and women are equally likely to lose their friends when they are in love.
