Facts

Today in class we looked at a video called "Did you know?". It had a bunch of facts in it about how things were before vs. now and population. One thing that surprised me was when the video said "China will soon become the number one english speaking country in the world". This was surprising because it's weird to think that a country who speaks another language, could speak our language better than us. But they soon will because their population is bigger than us and most of them are learning english as a second language. Another fact that surprises me is that " 1 in 8 couples married in the U.S last year, met online". All these people met online and a couple years ago the internet wasn't even invented yet. If the internet hadn't been discovered, half of the married couples wouldn't have even even met. The last thing that is surprising is "if Facebook were a country, it would be the 3rd largest (behind China and India)". The internet has become so important to our daily lives that there are more people using it than are in lots of countries. The world has changed, and will continue to change and grow in so many ways.
