2. Do some tasks. The future of mobile phones
3. Read the text and then do the tasks.
Mobile
fever
Have you got a mobile phone? Why or why not? Would you
like to have one?
Do you think mobile phones are useful?
Read the magazine article. Make a list of
the good and bad things about mobiles.
I am standing in a queue at
the supermarket. The woman in front of me is talking on her mobile while the
shop assistant is filling her bags. I'll say something if she doesn't stop
soon. No, I won't. My phone's ringing now. If it's my boyfriend, I'll tell him
he's late again! 'Oh, it's you Mum. Well, I'm just...'
Why are we so addicted to mobile phones?
There are now over forty million people in Britain with mobiles and if the
present trend continues, every man, woman and child in Britain will soon have
one - or two, or three!
They
can be expensive and are possibly bad for us. You can spend a fortune if you
use your mobile a lot. According to some scientists, if we go on using mobiles,
we'll cook our brains. Some
people even think that radiation from mobiles causes
cancer. Psychologists say we are becoming dependent on mobiles. Dr Oliver James
talks about 'phoneliness' - in modern society we are lonely, so if
people ring us up or send us text messages, we feel
wanted.
Teenagers
are among the biggest
users of mobiles, and 'texting' is creating a
new language full of abbreviations
such as 'How RU?' In Japan, surveys show teenagers are reading less and mobile
use is affecting the marks of secondary school students. A big problem in
Britain is crime. Last year is half a million British teenagers were victims of
mobile phone theft.
As
technology improves, mobiles can do more and more. If you have one of the new
multimedia mobiles, you can log on to the Net, pay for things, play games,
interact with TV programmes and take photos to send to your friends.
Very tempting, isn't it? If I have the money next
month, I'll get one of
those new ones with camera ... I'll be able to send
photos of the supermarket queue to my boyfriend. And if I get one with an Internet connection, I won't have to come to
this supermarket at all. I'll sit at home and order everything with my mobile.
What a good idea!
