In this issue, Filipe learns that everybody needs to think about what they share on their mobile phone and on social media networks. 

Understanding

At the beginning of the story, Lucas and Filipe use their phones to take photos of their teacher and share them with their friends. What problems can this cause for the person who took the photos and for the person in the photos?

Activity 1: In this activity, have a look at each question and decide which is the best answer. Then, think if you have ever shared a photo that you shouldn't have shared?

Grammar

During the story, Filipe is sure that someone went onto his Facebook page, and he is sure that he knows who it was. He uses the phrase 'must have been' to show this:

"Someone must have been on my Facebook page!"

"It must have been Rafael"

We use the structure must + have + past participle to show that we are sure about something that happened in the past. We can change must to could/may/might to say that we are less sure, or to can't if we are sure that something didn't happen.
