W: Have I told you about the new computer I have just bought? It is really fantastic. It has some new functions that I have never used before.
M: (6)Not again, Linda. You’ve been talking about your new electric products a lot recently.
W: So, Jeff, let’s talk about technology. These days we have all types of new technology.
M: Can we just end this right now? I don’t like technology, so can we talk about something else?
W: What? You don’t like technology?
M: No, I don’t like technology.(7)I think it’s gone against what it was originally invented for, and that is for convenience, to make people’s lives easier and to give them more free time.
W: (8)Yeah, but technology does make your lives easier. It saves us time, and it helps you communicate faster with others
M: But does it save us time?
W: I think so. I mean, before you had to type something up, and now you can just type it up on a word processor. It’s quicker. Before you had to walk to a phone, and now the phone is in your pocket. You can just pick it up and call anytime, anywhere in the world.
M: I kind of agree with that, but sometimes walking to the phone is sort of pleasant and you had time to think about other things.(9)Now you type something into your PDA while you’re listening to your MP3 player, and then you get into your car and you drive to your office and the first thing you do is to check your e-mail and then right after that you check your voice mail and then you send an e-mail to someone and then, I think it’s just sort of, it’s cluttered.
W: Yeah, but maybe if you did not have that, then you would probably have something else that would just clutter up your life. I’m sure people were much busier before they had technology.
M: Mm, I agree. I think they were busier but maybe more wholesome things, or less, our minds are always bombarded with images or news and a lot of this stuff is not needed but because it is there we use it.(10)I don’t think we have to see so much news or read so many different things on the Internet and see so much on television and the DVD player, get our news on our MP3 players and our hand-held computer. I think it’s just... we fill our time with things that are not really needed or not useful.
W: I understand what you mean.
M: So, I think that technology is good but it sometimes defeats its own original purpose.
W: Maybe you’re right.
