TikTok,which is owned by Chinese company ByteDance,has been known for its viral()
dance videos and pop music.36 Google data showed nearly 40 percent of people born between 1997
and 2012 prefer TikTok for online searches.
"Compared with traditional search engines like Google,TikTok's powerful algorithm (and
visual presentation are what I love the most,"said a 20-year-old girl Dana from the Czech Republic.
Dana said that she has always had a short attention span(持续时间).When she used traditional
search engines,she always lost her way in a sea of words.37 "All.of the videos I searched for
surprisingly met my tastes and I could get the information I wanted very quickly,"said Dana.

review of a restaurant can't capture its sense of atmosphere,food or drinks.

Bullard from the US is one of them.The 19-year-old said she often searches for things like celebrity
news,recipes,fashion tips and entertainment recommendations on TikTok."Nevertheless,when

reputable media sources and organizations,she added.

stay,according to Adrienne Sheares,a social media consultant.40 Google also tried an experiment
to let users search by using both text and photos.
"Even if people aren't interested in,say,TikTok,I think what we'are going to start to see is more
visual during online searches,"Sheares told ABCNews.
A.Meanwhile,they leave the heavier topics to Google.
B.Young people like to try Internet-famous restaurants.
C.TikTok's funny videos also make some kids addicted.
D.He formed a Gen Z focus group to discuss their searching habits.
