Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Social media has significantly changed how people consume news. While traditional media like newspapers and television once dominated, social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter now play a major role in disseminating information. This shift has both positive and negative implications for news consumption.
One significant change is the speed at which news spreads. Social media allows for real-time updates, meaning users can learn about events as they unfold. This immediacy can be beneficial, particularly during breaking news situations. However, it also increases the risk of misinformation spreading rapidly, as unverified reports can quickly go viral.
Another impact is the potential for echo chambers. Social media algorithms often show users content aligning with their existing views, reinforcing biases and limiting exposure to diverse perspectives. This can lead to a polarized understanding of events, with individuals primarily encountering news confirming their pre-existing beliefs.
While social media presents challenges for news consumption, it also offers opportunities. Users have greater access to a wider range of sources, including citizen journalists and alternative media outlets. This can lead to more diverse perspectives and challenge traditional narratives. However, it also necessitates greater critical thinking skills from users, who must navigate this complex information landscape and discern credible sources from unreliable ones.
Question 31
What is the main idea of the reading passage?
- Social media is the only way people consume news today.
- Social media has made no impact on news consumption.
- Social media has both positive and negative effects on how people consume news.
- Traditional media is better than social media for news.

- spreading

- statistics

- It always provides accurate information.
- It eliminates the need for traditional media.
