Read the texts and choose the correct options

A) It is said that if nothing's going on in one's life, they start to show interest in the life of others. Tiffany is so keen on telling her friends about the scandals and stories that she's read about in the press. At times, it even gets scary how addicted she is to such kind of media. And most of the time, all that information isn't really true. It's all made up in order to sell more copies.

B) Every time Clark travels to a new place, he wants to explore local sights and learn more about its culture. As he enjoys travelling alone, he normally pops up into a tourist office to get some information from those small magazines that contain a description and pictures of the city.

C) Russell is a kind of a man who is always on his feet. He's so busy at work and with his two kids that he rarely gets the time to read for pleasure. However, he's quite interested in politics and sports, and never misses the chance to get an update. As a more "straight-to-the-point" kind of the man, he does not care for personal views and sensational stories. He only wants to read about facts and analytics.

D) It seems that Jane's never heard of the term "personal space". She's always online. She needs to know what her friends do on weekends; whether her ex-boyfriend is seeing other girls or not. She's constantly checking on the lives of celebrities. No wonder she's sometimes so withdrawn and anxious. She tries to live the life of others but not her own.

E) Jeff's been having problems with reading through all school years. It was pretty hard for him to focus on the written text and understand the information without rereading it several times. It troubled him a lot, as he had some free time during the day when he wanted to learn more about science or classical literature. Luckily, he's found a way to keep himself entertained. He can get tons of information without actually reading it with the help of these audio recordings. And he can do it wherever he wants.

Where do they get the information they need?
