The Mobile Phone 



I got a mobile phone as a birthday present last month. Most of my friends have had one for ages. My mother does not approve of mobile phones. She goes to work by bus and she says that she is always being disturbed by people talking on mobile phones. This is certainly a bad point of mobile phones. Most of the time people are not talking about anything important. They are only chatting. Often the call on their mobile is unnecessary. My mother always said that some experts think that mobile phones can damage your health. This would definitely be a bad point about them. My father says that this health risk has not yet been proved. The good point about mobile phones is that you can contact someone quickly and easily in an emergency. You do not have to find a public phone. If you have missed the bus, you can phone your parents. If you are in danger, you can phone the police. I feel safer with a mobile phone. I would like to ring my friends a lot but that is too expensive.
