MOBILE PHONES: HERE TO STAY
Most people today cannot imagine the life without mobile phones. I believe it is one of the most important
novations ever. Thanks to mobile phones, our lives are much more easier today.
First of all, if you have a mobile phone you can make phone calls no matter where you are. For example,
you can call a friend to let them know that you lost your way or are going to be late. As a result, you feel safer
and less stressed.
In addition, we can use mobile phones to send text messages. We can write messages to friends giving
hem news or sending them birthday wishes. We can even listen to the radio while travelling on a bus or the
netro.
However, some people would argue that it has a negative effect on our life. If we use mobile phones all
he time, it is bad for our health.
In my opinion, mobile phones have more advantages than disadvantages if we use them correctly. Our
ives are better with them and they are here to stay.
