Social Networking

Gabriela: -Hello Juliana. -How are you?

Juliana: -Hello, Gabriela. Well, what about you?
Juliana: -Well, thank you, Gabriela.
Gabriela: -Juliana, I saw you on Facebook. -I loved the picture!
Juliana: -Yeah, Gaby's pretty, right?
Gabriela: -Juliana is and I was amazed with the reach you can have on Facebook. She seems to have
traveled all over the Caribbean coast, she has more than 5000 likes!
Juliana: -But you know something, Gabriela, that also brings criticism and benefits because brands
know you and what you do, but you know something about Twitter, more people know me.
Gabriela: -If I have Twitter you have many followers too and I really think it's a very important social
network if you want to wet the press or just look for criticism or gossip about other people's lives
because here in Colombia most of the scandals are on Twitter and many people do not have it directly
as a social network ¡That's very true, Juliana!
Juliana: - By the way, Gaby, what's your favorite social network?
Gabriela: -Juliana, the truth is that I love it and I spent hours on Instagram. I think it's a very complete
social network, and it's now growing and has many, many Instagrammers, and now has many
influencers, and some are good, and others not so good.
Juliana: - You know I like what you say and I'm going to try to prove it but before that happens I want
you to tell me more about this social network.
Gabriela: - Yes Juli looks with a lot of enthusiasm I tell you because it is true that is my favorite social
network And so far I have not been disappointed the truth is that it has things for all tastes if you have
tastes for the slime asmr or also for fashion or cooking they show you videos show you publications of
people around the world who have ventures In addition to that has many hashtag to enjoy and view the
photos are very supportive of people who are starting and you can mount IGTV that are like larger
videos or you can simply take a photo or a photo gallery which is called to the photos that are more
than one or two you can also make stories with all the creativity of the world has for surveys for
birthdays countdown has for music has many gifs and I love too much the truth I do not know if you
have noticed how the thing of it because the truth solves me too many problems because if I do not
have a business of confidence I need then suppose that a dessert only looked for it by dessert in
Barranquilla and I get all the desserts that Barranquilla has and things like that, do you understand me?
Juliana: - Yes Gaby I love what you're saying and I find the truth very entertaining because of what
you're telling me. Even though I don't have it yet because the truth seemed conventional, I'm going to
try it and later on when we meet again I'll tell you how it works for me and if I like your recommendation
or not.
Gabriela: - Yes Juli, let's go to the cafe and keep talking about the other social networks that are now in
the internet world like Facebook and study it in depth and the WhatsApp that is also very popular.
Juliana: Let's go to the cafeteria then ¿what are we waiting for?
Gabriela: Let's go.
-Juliana: Yes, the coffee is very good, ¿and how do you like this place? I think it is the perfect place to
start our project and I tell you that currently facebook is the social network par excellence in this
globalized world, offering almost all the services that a social network could offer, also this network can
save the content to read it in time and the day you want and we can contact all users through
messenger which is a messaging application that complement the regular conversations, Messenger
allows users to make voice calls and video calls both in individual interactions as in group
conversations, it's really great!
-Gabriela: I think this city is very nice and interesting, this whole topic
-Juliana: Well, but explaining a bit further as you will know if you use the social network, Facebook
decided some time ago to divide its application in two, one called Messenger whose only function is the
use of messaging integrated into Facebook, while the other application, with the name of the social
network is able to manage the rest of the features of Facebook.
-Gabriela: The truth is that I am very surprised with everything that this topic covers
-Juliana: Yes and I haven't told you about the wonder of another app and this one is called WhatsApp
-Gabriela: ¡Great!
-Juliana: Well this app gives us some common benefits to the previous one and WhatsApp is a chat
application for last generation mobile phones, the so called smartphones that allows sending text
messages, photos and videos through its users, besides its operation is identical to the most common
computer instant messaging programs. Don't you think this application is great?
-Gabriela: ¡Woo this will look great!
Juliana: I think we'll make a very impressive project for society, and I think we'll start with this one in two
weeks, since we have all the equipment and production to achieve this dream.
Gabriela: Yes, that sounds perfect, tomorrow we can start downloading these apps and working on
them.
Juliana: Okay, that’s great, so we start in the afternoon and see you back here, ¿it was nice to get to
know a little more about these networks and also to chat with you for a while?
Gabriela: Super, see you tomorrow

Reported speech
Indirect speech is the way you can tell, explain, write or say something in your own words by changing
the verb tense to the past.
It differs from direct speech in this way, because direct speech involves you saying or writing everything
textually and exactly as it happened.
Rule #1: You must learn that, in reported speech, the verb tenses change.
That is, in direct speech or in direct style, all expressions of verb tenses are in the present tense. But
when you use the indirect speech or reported speech, the verb changes into the past tense. However,
there are two exceptions to this rule, which are explained below.
Rule #2: The verb tenses of modal verbs also change.
As mentioned above, the verb tenses change once the direct speech is changed into the indirect
speech, and the modal verbs do not escape this either, except would, could, should, might and ought
to.
