Model Answer:

Introduction:
Oh, this one should be easy as I am an avid social media user. Though I do not like to waste my time browsing different social media platforms hour after hour, I like to use two or three of them to remain connected to my friends, family to others who are my online friends. Thank you for this nice topic.

What it is:
My favourite social media platform is Instagram. It is a photo and video-sharing app that allows users to share their life experiences through pictures and short clips. It also enables us to see what others are sharing. It helps people connect and interact in a great way.

What you use it for:
I use Instagram to stay connected with my friends and family who are near or even far away from me. I also use it to follow my favourite celebrities, influencers, and brands to stay updated on their latest happenings. Moreover, I also post my photos and share my daily life experiences with my followers.

How long you have been using it:
I have been using Instagram for around five years now. Initially, I started using it just to see what the hype was about, but over time it became a daily part of my routine. I use it a few times a week and never more than 30 minutes a day.

And explain why this is your favourite social media platform/site/app:
There are a few reasons why Instagram is my favourite social media platform. Firstly, I love the visual aspect of it. It allows me to express myself through pictures and videos. Secondly, I find it very easy to use and navigate. The user interface is simple and intuitive. Lastly, it helps me to stay connected with people who matter to me, especially during the pandemic when physical interactions have been limited. I feel that Instagram is not just a social media platform for me, but a way of life that keeps me connected, informed and entertained.

When I was browsing the CNN.com (in fact I visit the website at least twice a day), a news story titled - ‘How to lose a job in 30 seconds’ attracted me. I thought that the news story is about offering suggestions to give up a job within half a minute. But when I entered the story, it was a different thing. CNN.com is o
