UNIT 4: ON THE PHONE TEST 4

Answer the questions 10, 11 and 12 according to the text below.

Smartphones are one of the most essential
items in our lives today. For most of us, forgetting
the smartphone is more depressive than forgetting
your purse or wallet at home. Because if you have your
smartphone, you can pay with it by using some applications
or draw money from ATMs by using QR codes. You can find your
way in the traffic easily or communicate with people whenever or
wherever you want. But it has some bad sides, too. For example,
it really disturbs children’s and teenagers’ concentration most
of the time and it causes a lack of communication in real life
while we are texting to our friends or playing online games
or surfing on the social networking sites. It also causes
laziness, I think. One more reality is: They are
really expensive.
