My mobile phone
Hello! Im Kate. I want to write about my mobile phone. I got it from my parents for my birthday
two years ago. I like it very much and I think it's sometimes good to have it in my bag
I always keep it in my bag or in my pocket so my parents and my friends can always
telephone me and I can communicate with them. It's got a calculator in it so I sometimes use it
at school. It's also a kind of information file. I can use my mobile phone to connect to the
Internet and read the news and emails on my computer. Isn't it fantastic?
Last year I was on a cycling holiday with my friend. We went cycling but the weather
wasn't good. It was cold and windy. It started to rain and it got dark. Suddenly my friend fell
off her bike and she broke her leg. At first I didn't know what to do but then I thought about
my phone. It was in my rucksack so I telephoned for help. After fifteen minutes a doctor
arrived.
Sometimes people are not interested mobile phones. They are a real problem because
they always ring at the wrong moment. I'm not crazy about my mobile phone but I feel safe when
I have it with me.
