MOBILE PHONES


Nowadays, many people have a mobile phone. This device has really taken off in the last few years, and almost everybody has one.
There are several reasons for having a mobile phone. Firstly, if you are alone and you have a problem (on a motorway, for example) you can ask for help using your mobile. Secondly, if you spend a lot of time out of your house, working for instance, a mobile phone is the easiest way to be in touch with other people; moreover, if someone has to communicate with you, he or she would only have to call you at your mobile. Finally, you can also have fun with your mobile. With some of them you can take photos, listen to music and play games. It’s a good entertainment if you are travelling, and it fits in your pocket!
To conclude, mobile phones are very useful; since they were invented, communication has been easier and faster. If you don’t have one, it is a good idea to buy one!

An unforgivable betrayal

Thanks Carla. Original story! (FCE B)
And the rest...enjoy Carla's story.

I was planning to give my friend a surprise, but finally, the surprised one was me.
I had a friend called Ailén. We had been friends for more than 14 years but our relationship incredibly finished one day.
Last year it was her 18th birthday, so I wanted to give her a special present. As I love computers, I decided to make her a CD with some photos and music. The problem was that I didn’t have enough pictures of us together. So I asked her mum to give me some. She gave me the box where Ailén used to keep all her favourite photos.
I was just finishing my project when I found some pictures of Ailén kissing my boyfriend… I couldn’t believe my eyes! I started crying and that night I couldn’t sleep.
The following day I invited my boyfriend to my house. I did the same with my alleged friend.
When both arrived, I showed them the pictures and asked for an explanation. They couldn’t say a word…
I haven’t talked to them since that day. They hurt me in a way I never thought they could.
Luckily I’m much better now. I have a new boyfriend and lots of friends, and I’ve got over from that horrible experience.

Story by Paula

Great Story by Paula Cantoia (FCE B). I asked her permission to publish it. Thanks Pau! Well done!

John was a seventeen-year-old boy who did not have many friends. In fact, he did not have any friends. He was interested in science and maths, and when he was 12, he started looking into Einsten’s theories. The more he knew about this genius, the more obsessed he became.One day he was trying to make out some math problems when he heard a strange noise which was coming from the kitchen. John went there, and what he saw was so incredible that he couldn’t believe his eyes. Einsten was in his house!As much strange it could seem, it was true. At first John stared at Albert, but then they began to talk and, after 2 hours of conversation, Einstein decided to help John with his problems and they both solved them. After that, the physicist told the boy `You will make even more scientific discoveries than I did´, as John was very smart. And then he vanished into thin air. When John got into bed that night, he could hardly believe what had happened that day.
