Back in time
As she stepped into the hall after nearly thirty years of absence, she realised at once that she shouldn't have come back. The smell of wood smoke, damp stone and ancient paper brought the past back so powerfully that it nearly knocked her backwards. In an instant she felt like a young girl again, alone and frightened in the house. She remembered feeling very, very cold - not from the damp and the near-freezing temperature, but because a terrible new life was beginning. And she could do nothing to stop it.

Future home?
Every few years, trend-watchers tell us that the house of the future has arrived, and gadgets from science fiction films will soon be in every home in the country. So far they've been wrong - and after viewing the 'Home of the Future' exhibition, I suspect that they are still wrong. Why do I need a superintelligent fridge or an internet-surfing mirror? I would much rather see my face clearly in an ordinary bathroom mirror than try to surf the internet while I'm combing my hair! If only they could design a device to stop me killing all my houseplants. If they did that, then I might be interested!

1. Do you agree that in the modern world, science is a more important subject than languages? Give reasons. 2. Do you think technology sometimes makes it harder for people to communicate with each other? Why?/ Why not?
- Suggested answer: Describe two pictures
Work in pairs. Take turns to describe and compare the photos. Then ask and answer the following questions
A: In picture A, a teacher is standing in front of the class and appears to be teaching a lesson. B: Picture B, on the other hand, shows a student working on a laptop wearing headphones in the classroom. It looks like the student is working on an individual task. A: It's interesting to see how technology is being used in the classroom in both pictures. In picture A, the teacher is likely using a whiteboard or projector to help illustrate their lesson, while in picture B, the student is using a laptop to complete their work. B: Yes, that's a good point. It seems like technology is becoming more integrated into the classroom, allowing for more individualized learning and different modes of teaching. A: Another difference is the level of interaction between the teacher and students. In picture A, the teacher is leading the lesson, while in picture B, the student is working independently. B: That's true. However, it's important to note that both forms of learning and teaching have their advantages and disadvantages, and it ultimately depends on the goals and needs of the students.

Work in pairs. Take turns to describe and compare the photos. Then ask and answer the following questions
A: Do you think technology sometimes makes it harder for people to communicate with each other? Why? B: Yes, technology can sometimes make it harder for people to communicate because it can create misunderstandings, cultural differences, and language barriers. Additionally, technology can also create some places where people only interact with like-minded individuals and ignore diverse perspectives, leading to polarization and division. A: Do you agree that in the modern world, science is a more important subject than languages? Give reasons. B: Both science and languages are important subjects in the modern world, and they play different roles. Science helps us understand the natural world, solve problems, and create new technologies, while languages facilitate communication and understanding among people from different cultures and backgrounds. The importance of each subject depends on one's personal and professional goals, interests, and needs.

I recently bought the Samsung Galaxy S21, and I am blown away by its features. This phone has a 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED display, which delivers an immersive viewing experience. The camera is exceptional, with a 64-megapixel primary sensor, which captures stunning photos and videos. One of the standout features is the phone's 5G capability, which provides lightning-fast download speeds. In comparison to my previous phone, the iPhone X, the Samsung Galaxy S21 is a clear winner. While the iPhone X was an excellent phone, the S21's camera and screen are far superior. Overall, I am thrilled with my purchase. The Samsung Galaxy S21 has exceeded my expectations and is worth every penny. Some people believe that teenagers use smartphones too much, which can negatively impact their mental health and social skills. While I understand their concerns, I believe that smartphones can be used responsibly. For example, teenagers can use their phones to stay connected with their friends and family, research topics of interest, and access educational materials. It's all about finding a balance and using technology in a way that enhances our lives rather than consuming it.
