One of the most obvious negative aspects of social networking is losing face-to-face contact with other people. Teens are sitting around with their phones in their hands all day long, tapping messages onto screens instead of communicating with real people. Many teenagers feel more comfortable with virtual friends than with real ones. The majority think that it is easier to chat on the Internet because they lack communication skills.
It is also true that parents often have no knowledge about what their kids do with their phones or computers. Crosby says that “While kids are plugged into social media, only about 40% of parents are involved themselves”. And because parents don’t know the full picture, they also don’t know how to deal with teenagers’ potential overuse of social media and might not even be aware that a problem exists. Therefore, social networking can be much more immediately engaging with the teenagers’ life than parents are, and this fact makes virtual communication feel more ‘real’ than face-to-face communication.

Read the following passage then choose the best answer to each question
English was originally the language of England, and soon it has become the primary or secondary language of many former British colonies such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and India. Nowadays, it is the most international language in the world. There are several factors that make the English language essential to communication in the current time.
First of all, it is the most common foreign language. This means that two people who come from different countries (for example, a Mexican and Swede) usually use English as a common language to communicate. English is also essential to the field of education. In many countries, children are taught and encouraged to learn English as a second language. At the university level, students in many countries study almost all their subjects in English in order to make the material more accessible to international students. On the Internet, the majority of websites are written and created in English. Even sites in other languages often give you the option to translate the site. It is the primary language of the press: more newspapers and books are written in English than in any other language, and no matter where in the world you are, you will find some of these books and newspapers available.
Although many people think that it is very difficult and confusing, English is actually the easiest language in the world to learn because there are so many resources on the Internet and in bookstores. With good understanding and communication in English, you can travel around the globe. Because it is the international language for foreigners, it is easy to get assistance and help in every part of the world. You can test it by online travel. Any travel booking site you can find will have English as a booking option.
