FRIENDS UNIT 1 LESSON 10 1. How do you keep in touch with your friends ? Listen to the texts and say what gadgets and modes of communication these people use to interact with their friends and families. Complete the chart in your copy book. Mode of communication Gadget Sandra David Sally Nick Sally, 13 years old I don't phone my friends, I always text them. My cousin texts me every evening. I also see my friends at weekends. We usually meet at the shopping centre. David, 14 years old I often write emails to my friends. Mobile phone bills are quite expensive nowadays, you know. My father pays for the Internet access, so emailing costs nothing for me. Jane, 41 years old For my thirteen-year-old daughter Sandra, her tablet is her lifeline. She spends two hours a day online. She listens to music and checks social networking sites for updates and messages four or five times an evening to keep in touch with friends. She can't imagine a screen-free life. Nick, 13 years old I couldn't survive a day without my phone. I surf the net and chat on Skype with my friends, both in my home town and pen friends from around the world. My cell phone is always with me. 33

With the development of modern technology, internet let people do a lot of things without going out. One of my favorite is online shopping. .

I think that it's great opportunity to get necessary thing if you don't have enough time. Besides, you can almost always read comments about every product and know opinions of people about it. Many people choose shopping online also because they can’t stand that crowded and noisy environment.

Online shopping does have many advantages but everything has second side. For example, if you order a cloth online, at the moment you get the item, you may find that the color is different from what you saw online, or the size is either too small or too big because it is not available to try on before ordering, or the material of the cloth is not what you want.

I bought many thing on famous shopping site "Aliexpress".Once I needed headphones so I made my order on this site. It had taken about one month before I received my order. But I was ready to that time because I knew that way is too long to get order faster. The headphones were a little worse than I thought, but I was good with them.
