PART B_1

Let’s read the dialogue. I will play Ron and you will play Emma. Then, we’ll switch roles.

PART B_2

Hi, Emma. Can I borrow your cellphone?

Sure, here you go.

Thank you! I left mine at home while charging. Now, I have to check on my youngest brother left alone at home.

That is too bad that you left your cellphone. These days, the cellphone is among the essentials of a person. Most, if not all people, never go out of their house without a cellphone.

Yes, I agree with you. Especially during this time, communication is a lot easier with a cellphone.

Even some children own a cellphone. These are most likely for emergency purposes.

It is very helpful as it allows their parents to check on their kids from time to time. It is dangerous if the child’s use got out of hand.

Yes, but it is also important for parents to regulate their children’s use of cellphones as it may be harmful to the child.

Yes, you can say that again. Unregulated use of cellphone may be detrimental to the child’s physical and mental health.

Too much exposure to cellphones will limit their physical activity, making their systems a bit weak compared to normal.

It may also cause them problems in socializing with people if they are faced with their phone screens than with people most of the time.

Yes, I think these also apply to adults.

That is true. While we recognize the benefits of cellphones, it is also important to regulate its use to avoid its disadvantageous consequences.
