THE FACE OF SEVEN BILLION
A
In a world of more than seven billion people, is there a “most typical” person? According to statistics, there is. He’s a 28-year-old Han Chinese man. He lives in a city, can read and write, and probably works in a hotel or restaurant.
B
There are 1.01 men in the world for every woman, so the typical person is male. China, with over 1.3 billion people, is the country with the largest population. The largest ethnic group is Han Chinese, and the world’s largest age group is 28.
C
More people – 51 percent of the world’s population – live in a city than in the countryside. The most common job is in services, such as restaurant and hotel work. Eighty-two percent of the world’s population can read and write.
D
What will the typical person be like in the future? The world’s population is growing and changing all the time. Every second, five people are born and two people die. In 1800, there were 1 billion people on Earth. Now, there are over 7 billion. By 2045, there may be 9 billion. So the typical person of the future may be very different from today.
A CONNECTED WORLD
E
Do you know what your friends watched on TV last night? Do your friends know what you had for breakfast today? Do you think you’re using social media too much?
F
Social media is now a part of many people’s everyday lives. Estimates suggest that around 2.8 billion people use social media regularly. That’s almost 40 percent of the world’s population. But how much time do we really spend on social media? And what exactly do we spend that time doing?
G
Research shows that, worldwide, the average person spends two hours and 19 minutes on social media each day. People in the Philippines are the most active users. An average person there spends four hours and 17 minutes a day on social media. Research also suggests that women use social media more than men. In the United States, for example, women spend around two hours more per week than men on social media.
H
What do most people do on social media? In general, it seems we spend more time looking at other people’s pages than adding to our own. According to one survey, the most common social media activities are visiting friends’ pages, reading their news, and commenting on their posts.
Read the passages before. Match the sentences to paragraphs A-H.

Pregunta 4 of 9
4. Pregunta
People love social media. The main sites like Facebook, Qzone, Tumblr, Instagram, and Twitter are very popular and they have billions of users. But at the beginning of the 21st century, MySpace was also a big site. How big? Here is an example: In 2006, more people in the United States visited MySpace than Google.
MySpace started in 2003. Young people loved it, and by 2005 it was the most popular social media site on the Internet. In fact, in that year MySpace was so successful that it tried to buy Facebook. In the end, however, the people at MySpace decided the $75 million price was too much. Later, in 2005, a large company called News Corporation paid $580 million to buy MySpace. At first it continued to grow, and in 2006, it had 100 million users. In 2007, MySpace had a value of $12 billion.
News Corp wanted to make money, so it showed lots of advertisements to MySpace users. Unfortunately, that isn’t what the users wanted. Also, MySpace was slow and hard to use, and it didn’t add cool new things for its users to do. Other sites like Facebook were better and added new features that users liked. Over time, fewer and fewer people visited MySpace, and in 2011, News Corp sold it for just $35 million.
The story of MySpace is interesting. It used to be the most popular social media site, but now few people use it. In the future, what will happen to other big social media sites like Facebook and Qzone? Will they make the same mistakes as MySpace, or will they listen to their users and continue to grow?
