(3)Friends Reunited—one of the UK’s first social networks—has announced it will soon close. One of its founders Steve Pankhurst explained in an email that the platform was still used by "a handful of members" but that it was "no longer used for the purpose it was built for".
Friends Reunited launched in the year 2000 and was bought by broadcaster ITV for £175m in 2005. However, it failed to keep pace with other social networks. It was sold to comic publisher DC Thomson for only £25m in 2009 and Mr Pankhurst wrote in a blog post that the company had offered it back to him a couple of years ago. Pankhurst and business partner Jason Porter agreed to take on the site for a trial period to see if they could refresh it "It became clear that most of the actual users coming to the site were (4)using it purely as a message board," wrote Mr. Pankhurst.
3. What is the news report mainly about?
4. What do we learn about Friends Reunited from the news report?
选项
A、It is more like a message board now.
B、It is used by millions of people.
C、The founder has given it up for years.
D、There is no user on the network.
答案
A
解析
关于“朋友再相聚”这个社交网站,新闻末尾提到它现在仅仅被当成留言板,并非真正的社交网站(using it purely as a message board),所以答案选A。B“有数百万人使用”,新闻中没有提到有这么多用户。C“创始人已经放弃了它多年”错误,新闻中提到创始人一直没有放弃,想让它重获活力(refresh it)。D“网站上没有用户”错误,新闻中提到有一些用户仍然在使用这个网站(used by“a handful of members”)。
