JAMES’ PROBLEM
Presenter: In this evening's programme, we're starting with a subject which has got many of you worried.
We'll be discussing young people and digital technology. It's something that worries not only parents but
Trang 3/7 - Mã đ thi 493ề
young people themselves. On our studio panel, we have Evan Matthews, a child psychologist, Joanne Carter,
a secondary school head teacher, and Liz Winslett, who has three teenage children and is a student
counsellor. Our first caller this morning is James Benson. What is your question, James?
James: Thank you. I'd like to ask you what you think about my parents' recent behaviour. They're getting
more and more obsessed about the amount of time I spend with what they call my 'virtual friends'.
Evan: Hi , James. Can you tell me who these friends are?
James: They're mainly people I've met on social networking sites.
Evan: And how much contact do you have with them?
James: Well, on a normal day, I'll update my status as soon as I wake up. Then I'll check to see if anyone's
sent me any messages on my mobile.
Evan: And how long does that usually take?
James: About five minutes if I have to reply to any messages.
Joanne: What about later in the day?
James: Well, if I don't have to go to college, I'll spend a couple of hours chatting to friends in the morning
and maybe another two in the evening.
Joanne: Hmm, that does seem rather excessive.
James: I suppose so, but it's what I'm used to. But actually, what Mum and Dad really object to is seeing
me texting my friends - especially at mealtimes. They say it's rude and antisocial.
Joanne: And what do you think?
James: I just think it's completely normal for people of my age.
Joanne: How many texts do you send a day?
James: About fifty or sixty.
Joanne: OK - and do you understand why your parents are getting so annoyed?
James: Not really. It's just a bit of fun. I think adults take these things too seriously.
Liz: Can I ask you, James:, do you have any other interests outside your virtual world?
James: No, not now. I used to play tennis with my dad most weekends. But he always seems too busy
these days.
Presenter: OK, James, I think we get the idea of what your life is like. I'd now like to ask our panel to
comment on what they've heard. Can I start with you Evan?
Evan: OK, James. I have to say I have great sympathy with your parents and completely understand their
point of view. They feel they're losing you to your virtual friends. My advice to you would be to spend less
time on your phone and try to spend at least a couple of hours a day when you're not at college doing things
with real people.
Presenter: Thank you. Joanne?
Joanne: Here's what I suggest, James. First, I think you should accept that you have an addiction then I
suggest you try to cut back your contact with digital friends by a few minutes every day, so that by this time
next year your life is in more balance. Try to get back to playing tennis with your dad like you used to. And
try to spend more time with real people - you'll soon get used to it. You won't lose any genuine friends and
you won 't have your parents nagging you all the time.
Presenter: Thanks. And lastly, Liz Winslett.
Liz: Right, James. I imagine your addiction is probably a very temporary one. I would guess that in a
month or two you'll get bored with your virtual life and just slip back into your old life - that's if my own
son's experience is anything to go by. In other words, I think you're going through a phase.
Presenter: Thank you all very much - and thank you, James, for your intriguing question.
James: Thanks.

It is hard to think of a world without gas or electricity. Both are commonly used for lighting and heating
today. We now can instantly flick a lighter or strike a match to make a flame. But it was not long ago that
there were no such things as matches or lighters. To make fire, it was necessary to strike a piece of iron on
flint for sparks to ignite some tinder. If the tinder was damp, or the flint old, you had to borrow some fire
from a neighbor. We do not know exactly when or how people first used fire. Perhaps, many ages ago, they
found that sticks would burn if they were dropped into some hole where melted lava from a volcano lay
boiling. They brought the lighted sticks back to make their fire in a cave. Or, they may have seen trees catch
fire through being struck by lightning, and used the trees to start their own fires.
Gradually people learned they could start a fire without traveling far to find flames. They rubbed two
pieces of wood together. This method was used for thousands of years. When people became used to making
fires with which to cook food and stay warm at night, they found that certain resins or gums from trees burnt
longer and brighter. They melted resins and dipped branches in the liquid to make torches that lit their homes
at night. Iron stands in which torches used to be fixed can still be seen in old buildings of Europe. There was
