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 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、A British social network will close down.
B、A new broadcast will be founded.
C、Two business partners will break up.
D、Some friends reunited in the UK.
答案
A
解析
新闻开头提到,“朋友再相聚”这个社交网站将会关闭(Friends Reunited…has announced it will soon close),A“一家英国社交网站将会关闭”是原文的概括。新闻中提到广播公司ITV收购了这家社交网站,B“一家新的广播公司即将成立”错误。C“两个商业合伙人即将分开”没有在新闻中提到。D“ 些朋友在英国重聚”利用网站名“朋友再相聚”制造干扰,并非真的有朋友相聚,排除D。
