Listen to four people talking about Internet services. Match the speakers with the services.
Speaker A
I can't remember the time when I first started using this service. There are more than five million pages with all kinds of useful information. It has helped me numerous times with my assignments and projects. You can literally find everything about anything. The funny fact is that all the information was written and uploaded to the site by ordinary people like you and me. Although, it was checked and verified, it's still amazing to be part of the world's biggest knowledge base website.
Speaker B
I must say at times it feels like an obsession. Every morning before doing anything else, I grab my phone and scroll through the feed. I know it's ridiculous, but I don't want to miss out on some news of my favourite celebs or from friends. Interestingly, this service is one of the most used worldwide. It's widely popular with teenagers and young adults. Yet, the service is becoming an essential tool for businesses. You don't have to pay rent for your store or employ staff. The only thing you need to do is to post a photo and write a catchy caption. And don't forget about likes. They are a must!
Speaker C
At first, it was a little unclear how to use this app. I'd heard about it dozens of times but never tried it myself. Recently, I got involved in a game development community. All the members were using this service to keep up-to-date with the latest news in the field. And I must say it was practical. They reposted links from leading designers and shared some insightful articles from experts. It turned out to be really convenient. You could easily use the app from a smartphone and share your thoughts on key events in the world of game design. The only thing I still can't get used to is the character limit. None of my ideas can fit into 280 characters or less.
Speaker D
When I attended a summer English course in Malta, I met a lot of great people and we immediately became friends. Some of them were Russians, but others were from different countries. I didn't want to lose touch with them when the course was over, so I decided to sign up for this website to keep in touch with my new friends. You can't even imagine how excited I was. It's so easy to find people on the platform. You can see what they're into, what communities they follow and what places they prefer to visit. I got used to sharing stories of my daily life, so my foreign friends could know what was going on. Now it doesn't feel like we're thousands of miles apart.
