Ответ: Comparing Ways of Getting News
Both pictures show people getting news, but they use different sources. In the first photo, a man is reading a newspaper at home. He is sitting comfortably and looking through the pages. In the second photo, a group of young people are using their smartphones indoors. They are probably reading news online or discussing something they have found on the Internet. The pictures have a common theme because people in both of them want to keep up with current events. However, the first picture shows a traditional printed source, while the second one shows modern digital technology. Reading a newspaper is usually a quieter and more private activity. Using a smartphone makes it possible to get news immediately and share it with other people. Personally, I prefer getting news online with my smartphone. It is quick, convenient and gives me access to many different sources. Moreover, I can read the news wherever I am. Nevertheless, newspapers can be useful for people who enjoy reading long articles without distractions.
