　　Sample Answer
　　In recent years, people have gotten more and more attached to their smart phones, and an increasing number of apps are becoming part of people’s lives. From my perspective, I would say Wechat is a most useful one. The app is developed by Tencent, which is the fifth-largest Internet company in the world. At the very beginning, Wechat only had some basic functions, including instant-messaging and group chatting. Step by step, with the various demands from the people, the platform gradually offered users a series of new functions, ranging from a personal page to a payment system for purchasing goods.
 
　　The Wechat personal page is quite similar to Twitter or Facebook, where people could share their special moments with friends, colleagues and family members. For better convenience, with the payment system, users could buy anything they want online, then pay for it by Wechat. Normally, people have their own e-wallet on Wechat, where they could also transfer money to others’ e-wallets and bank accounts. Also, users can top up their phones too. In general, netizens prefer to use apps which are free, multi-functional and user-friendly, just like Wechat. That’s why it gets so popular not only in China but also in other countries, attracting almost 500 million active users  outside China.
