I am standing in a queue at the supermarket. The
woman in front of me is talking on her mobile while
the shop assistant is filling her bags. I'll say
something if she doesn't stop soon. No, I won't. My
phone's ringing now. If it's my boyfriend, I'll tell him
he's late again! 'Oh, it's my Mum. Well, I'm just...'
Why are we so addicted to mobile phones? There are
now over forty million people in Britain with mobiles
and if the present trend continues, ever man, woman
and child in Britain will soon have one - or two, or
three! They can be expensive and are possibly bad for
us. You can spend a fortune if you use your mobile a
lot, According to some scientists, if we go on using
mobiles, we'll cook our brains. Some people even say
that radiation from mobiles causes cancer.
Psychologists say we are becoming dependent on
mobiles. Dr. Oliver James talks about 'phoneliness'
in modern society we are lonely, so if people ring us
up or send us text messages, we feel wanted.
