How important is your mobile phone to you?

    Imagine that you went to a day camp without your phone. How would you feel? Do you think you could get through your (社会的)life？ Share your thoughts with us!

    I'm not sure, but why would anyone do so? The mobile phone has brought us a much easier life. My old granny says it has (控制) our life. However, my friends and I still think it has many (优点)

    I would thank it if my family members could leave their mobile phones at home, (尤其)when we get together. Every time we eat out, my son and his wife are always busy checking and replying to emails, while my (孙子) plays online games or texts his friends all the time. We only talk to each other when the waiter (给……看) us the menu. A family get-together is supposed to draw everyone together to have fun, but mobile phones (引起) people less attention on each other.

    My mobile phone is (有帮助的). I use it to check my calendar and to keep in touch with others. The idea of not having it around worries me. (一次)I left my phone at home and I couldn't pay attention to my work at all. My (同伴) in my office have the similar experiences too.
