Opinion poll and report about mobile phone usage

http://kimandjason.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/12basicsl.jpgHey,

 

today you first talked about your personal mobile phone usage thanks to an opinion poll (a questionnaire / a study). Here is what we said and the conclusions we drew:

 

Conclusion of the study:

Many students in class spend a lot of time sending text messages. For instance, Laurianne sends an average of 150 text messages a day*. It corresponds to about 1 message every two minutes*. However, the students in this class are not addicted to / hooked on calling. The largest package is a 2 hour-package. On average, students spend 1 hour a month* on the phone. Alexia admits that it would be bizarre if she didn’t have her mobile. It would be difficult to do without it.

* GRAMMAR: exprimer la fréquence.

 

Then we continued on with a new oral document about mobile phone usage.

 

You can listen to it again below:

 

 

Here is what we said about it:

 

The document is a report (a set of interviews with an introduction and a conclusion).

It deals with mobile phone usage.
The scene probably takes place at a work place or a fast-food restaurant. We can hear people talking in the background. The journalist asks questions to 3 people (1 female and 2 males) who are probably young adults (their voices are not teenagers’ voices).

 

HW: for next time, you need to be able to talk about your personal usage of the phone and prepare a short recap about what we said about the document.
