The majority of us use computers now, but what for? How would our lives be
different if we didn't have them? We interviewed three young people to find out.
Jerome:
We've got computers at school, of course, and we have IT lessons - I enjoy

learning how to use some of the software. There are a few brilliant programmes
for drawing and designing. But I'm not fond of games or chat rooms so I don't use
5.(a) Computers the computer just for fun. I dislike searching for information on the Internet. It
(Listen & read) bores me, and it's not as fast or as easy as reading books. But we would need
more books in our library if we didn't have computers.
Melissa:
I believe computers are 100% important in our lives. We've got one at home, but
everyone in my family uses it. If I had enough money, I'd purchase one of my own.
You use the computer for everything; homework, projects, chat, e-mailing people,
playing games, everything! If we didn't have one, I have no idea what I would do!
Perhaps I'd write letters or phone my friends more often, and I'd have to read
books! But you can learn so much more on the net!
Andrea:
I believe the Internet's entertaining and I mainly use my computer to surf the net. If
I had the time, I'd create my own website, but it would take too much work, and I
think I wouldn't have time for that and my studies. If I had my own site, I'd put
videos, music, links to interesting pages and chat rooms for young people. I'm
certain it would be a lot of fun. I'm quite sure our lives would be really boring if we
didn't have computers.

Announcer British Airways announces the departure of Flight BA 117 to Athens

Gate number 5?
Stewardess Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of Captain Powell
and his crew we'd like to welcome you aboard. We will be taking off
in a few minutes. Please keep your seat-belts fastened until we are
airborne and the sign goes off; we also advice passengers to use

Drinks are available throughout the flight. We hope you enjoy your
flight with us today. Thank you.
Man Are you going to Athens or Dubai?
Steve Oh, I'm going to Dubai. Are you going there too?
Man No, I'm just going as far as Athens, as a matter of fact. I'm working
there at the moment.
Steve Oh, how interesting. What do you do?
Man Well, I'm teaching English at a language school in Athens.
Steve Really? That seems challenging.
Man Well, it's better than working! Seriously, though, I do find it
interesting. In fact, we have to work quite hard. Especially after office
hours when most of the classes are taught. And Greece is a good
place to work. Fantastic people! What do you do, by the way?
Steve I'm a computer analyst, actually. I'm off to Dubai to try and sell a
computer.
Man Oh, really? I've always admired people like you. I'd be absolutely
terrible at anything like that.
Steve Well, I'm rather new to it myself. This is just my second trip abroad
for the firm.
Captain This is the captain speaking. We are now flying at 40,000 feet over
Southern Italy. If you look down to your left, you will see the island of
Sicily and, beyond it, the Mediterranean. We will be landing at Athens
airport in about 45 minutes. Weather reports from Athens are good,
but there may be some air turbulence as we pass over the western
coast of Greece.
Man I don't like flying, do you?
Steve Well, I haven't travelled by plane a lot myself. This is the longest flight
I've ever made.
Man Just take a look at that wing! It seems to be bending quite a lot. It
was just about here they had that horrible crash six months ago.
Nobody lived, of course. They couldn't even locate the wreckage for
three days.
Steve I think I recall reading about that.
Man Yes, and there's always the risk of hijackers, isn't there? Look at that
young man in dark glasses over there. He seems to be calling
someone. I must say I don't like the look of him.
Steve He's just trying to catch the hostess's attention. He probably just
wants to order a drink or something.
Man Yes, I hope you're right. Still, I wouldn't like to bump into him in a
dark alley. (The aircraft flies into an air pocket)
Steve What on earth was that? I'm not feeling well. Would you excuse me
for a moment? The lavatory's at the back, isn't it?
Man That's right. There's one on either side at the rear of the cabin.
Steve Oh, my goodness! I say, I think I ought to tell you. Somebody's left a
knapsack just inside the lavatory.

Cindy Hurry up, Steve. I'm dying for a drink. Look, that place over there looks
nice.
Steve That sounds good. I'm a bit thirsty myself. Shall we sit inside? This table
looks all right ... Good Lord! See all those young people sitting over
there?
Cindy Yes. What about them?
14.(a) Socializing Steve Well, see the older man with them - seems like an Englishman - well, I
(Listen & read) can't quite remember, but I'm sure I've met him somewhere before. Quite
recently too. Now I remember! I met him on the plane on my way to
Dubai. As far as I remember, he told me he's an English teacher out here.
Mind if I go over and say hello to him?
Cindy Go right ahead.
Steve Excuse me. I don't know if you remember me or not, but we sat next to
each other on the plane a couple of weeks ago.
Teacher Yes, we did! You're the computer analyst chap, aren't you? What on earth
are you doing here? Selling computers?
Steve No, not this time. I'm on vacation with my wife, actually. That's her over
there.
Teacher Well, why don't you both come over and join us? These are my pupils.
They're all studying English. They'd love a chance to practise their
English.
Steve Cindy, come over here and bring our drinks. I'm Steve Newman, by the
way, and this is my wife, Cindy.
Teacher My name's Robert Hudson - and these are my students.
Steve How do you do?
Andrea So you are coming from England?
Teacher No, Andrea. You've already forgotten what we were doing in the lesson
just fifteen minutes ago.
Andrea Should I have said, "You come from England" or perhaps "You've come
from England?" I must say I'm not sure which.
Teacher Well, it depends on exactly what you're trying to say. If you say, "You've
come from England," it means, "You've just arrived from England". If, on
the other hand, you say, "You come from England", you're saying,
"You're English" or "Your native country is England". See what I mean?
Steve I must admit I never thought about how hard it must be for foreigners to
learn English. The thing is - we just say what we want to say without
really thinking about it.
Andrea So do we, of course, when we speak in Greek. But we have to think
about everything we say in English, so we see the difficulties.
Teacher That's absolutely right, Andrea. Half the challenge, of course, is
accepting that there are difficulties, especially when listening to English
people. Sorry, you two, I hope we're not boring you with this topic.
Cindy Not at all. I think it's fascinating. You know, most English people
wouldn't even know where to begin explaining what you were saying just
now. I surely couldn't.
Steve That goes for me too. It's all Greek to me, if you'll excuse the expression.

Millions of people now use computers regularly for lots of different things -
communication, study, entertainment and so on. We frequently hear that
computers have changed our lives for the better. But is this true?
Of course computers are useful, and have changed some people's lives for the
better. However, they can create problems as well. The majority of people who
spend long hours at the computer may develop physical problems. Deteriorating
eyesight, for example, can occur from looking at the screen for too long. There can
17.(a) How important be injuries in computer users' hands and arm from repeating the same movements
computers are nowadays thousands of times, as people do with keyboards and a mouse. People who have
computers are also spending a lot of time seated, and less time exercising, so
(Listen & read) many of them are becoming overweight.
Other problems are psychological. One example is stress. Computers, the Internet
and e-mail have made most people's lives much faster. This can be very exciting,
but it also means that people may feel under a lot of pressure to do everything
more quickly, which ends up being stressful.
Addiction is also a problem with more and more young people. A lot of people
have become hooked on using the Internet and chat rooms and surfing the net,
sometimes until very late at night. This means they can't work or study properly
and sometimes have difficulty maintaining friendships with real people.
Some studies in the United States have recommended that young children and
teenagers who spend a lot of hours at computers can become sad or even
depressed.
"Computers can be a really positive part of children's lives. But parents and
teachers must help children learn to use computers in responsible and creative
ways," says professor Jenny Stones "And children need to learn when it is time to
sign off and do other things."
