Task 1
Read the text and answer the question correctly.
When talking about 7-inch tablets, the aspect is very important. The
Tab A100 does not disappoint from this point of view, being elegant
and classy. The front face is surrounded by glossy black plastic, while
the back of the tablet is a dark gray plastic with Acer’s logo in the
10
middle. In terms of portability, the Iconia Tab A100 is also a more than
a satisfying device, being about the same size and weight as the HTC
Flyer, for example.
Performance and software – The Iconia Tab A100 features the already
classic Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core processor with 1 GB of RAM memory
and is therefore at least as snappy and powerful as any other 7 or 10-
inch tablet on the market right now. The cameras are surprisingly
decent, the 2 MP front-facing and the 5 MP rear-facing devices
offering pretty much the best image quality you might hope to find on
a slate.
Connectivity and pricing – The Iconia Tab A100 is set to feature WiFi
and Bluetooth compatibility, as well as a micro-USB port and a micro
SD slot card. It would have been perfect if it would have featured
HDMI as well, but still it is pretty decent for a 7-inch tablet.
As far as pricing is concerned, the Acer Iconia Tab A100, which has
not yet been released on the market, will be available for 329
dollars(the 8 GB version) or for 349 dollars ( the 16 GB version). This is
consistently less than HTC Flyer’s or Blackberry Playbook’s prices, to
name two of the important 7-inch tablets right now.
Wrap-up – While the Iconia Tab A500 is still struggling to become one
of the important names in the tablets’ world, the from this Android
11
tablet review it looks like a winner right away. Packing good technical
specifications, as well as a decent display and a revolutionary
software for a 7-inch tablet, Acer’s new slate also comes at an
affordable price tag and will probably mesmerize technology fanatics
all around the world.

SONG IN YOUR DAILY LIFE
DEFINITION
A song is a single (and often standalone) work of music intended to be sung by
the human voice with distinct and fixed pitches and patterns using sound and
silence and a variety of forms that often include the repetition of sections.
and refrain. A refrain is any line that repeats in the song lyric, while a chorus
is any group of lines that repeat.
Break
A break is actually a brief “rest” or “pause” for the core melody within a
song used to add further dimension and excitement. It may include a quick
instrumental solo or drum interlude or it may be a brief moment of silence,
or a combination of each of these elements.
Bridge
This is the part of the song that shifts. It can suddenly change tempo, or
volume, or instrumentation. The bridge is the section that gives the
audience time to reflect on the story, or gives them the “climax” or
conclusion of the story through verses and chorus. Bridges can be used to
give the singer a break.
Outro or Coda
This is the end of the road for the song. It can repeat the intro, chorus or a
refrain as an outro, or a bridge with an instrumental solo.
