Speaking Part

Q1: What social media platforms are you using?

I predominantly make use of Facebook and Instagram. They are my go-to platforms for catching up on news, communicating with friends, and sharing my life snippets.

• Predominantly → Chủ yếu, phần lớn

• Go-to platforms → Nền tảng mà tôi thường dùng

• Life snippets → Đoạn đời, khoảnh khắc cuộc sống

Q2: How much time do you spend on social media every day?

It varies, but I would say on average I spend around two hours per day. Sometimes, I find myself scrolling aimlessly, which is a habit I'm trying to break.

• Varies → Thay đổi, không cố định

• Scrolling aimlessly → Lướt mạng một cách vô định hướng

• A habit I'm trying to break → Một thói quen tôi đang cố gắng bỏ

Q3: Has social media made our lives better or worse?

This is a double-edged sword. On one hand, social media has made communication easier and the world smaller. On the other hand, it has also led to issues like cyberbullying and fake news.

• Double-edged sword → Cái gì có hai mặt, cả lợi và hại

• Cyberbullying → Bắt nạt trên mạng

• Fake news → Tin tức giả mạo
