Mobile phones
• Look at the first two rows of the grid below and the different reasons people use their mobile phones:
| Reasons people use phones | Reasons you use your mobile phone | Conversation or text message |
| To let their people know where they are | ||
| To flirt with someone | ||
| As a clock | ||
| To play games | ||
| Just to say hello | ||
| To arrange to meet friends | ||
| To find out about the cinema or football results |
• Now fill in the grid for you.
• Number the empty boxes 1- 7 with 1 being the most frequent reason you use your mobile phone.
• If you don’t have a mobile phone then fill in the table with your neighbour.
• Now decide for each reason whether you speak to someone or whether you send a text message. Circle either C or TM in each box.
Dialogue reconstruction
You are now going to look at a telephone conversation.
• In pairs put the pieces of paper into the correct order.
• When you’ve finished check your order with the pair sitting next to you.
• What is the relationship between the two people?
• What is the main reason for the telephone call?
• Now practise reading the dialogue in your pairs.
| “Hello” |
| “Hi Sophie, it’s Justin.” |
| “Hi. How are you?” |
| “Fine thanks. Listen I haven’t got long because I’ve got a math’s class in a minute. I just wanted to see if you are still coming tonight.” |
| “I’m not sure. I think my mum wants me to stay in tonight. We’re going to my aunt’s house tomorrow and we have to leave really early.” |
| “Why, where does she live?” |
| “Miles away!” |
| “Well, what about if you came early and then my dad could give you a lift home at about ten. Most people are coming around seven anyway and it would be cool if you came.” |
| “Ok well let me speak to my mum and I’ll text you later.” |
| “Ok, cool.” |
| “See you later.” |
| “Yeah, bye.” |
Role-play
It’s now your turn to create your own telephone conversation. Read the situation on your card and ask about any words you don’t understand.
• You can write a draft of your telephone conversation but don’t write every word, just an outline of what you’re going to say.
| You need to cancel a trip to the cinema because your grandmother is coming for dinner. |
| Arrange with a good friend to go shopping on Saturday at the shopping centre |
| You phone your best friend the morning of his/her birthday. |
| Phone your parents to ask them if you can be late for dinner to stay for an extra drama class after school. |
| Tell your friend that you’re going to be late meeting them because of a train strike. |
| Phone your friend to find out where they are. You’ve been waiting for them in a café for twenty minutes. |
