Amilia by Amilia Karen by Karen

Karen and Amilia are talking to each other on their cell-phones.

Karen: Hello,Amilia! I’ve been trying to reach you all day.

Amilia: Sorry. The battery was dead in my new cell-phone.

Karen: You must use it a lot.

Amilia: Well, it has many functions that my old one didn’t have.

Karen: Like what?

Amilia: I can take pictures, receive my e-mail, and lots of other stuff.

Karen: Cool! Maybe I’ll replace mine, too.

Amilia: Let’s get together for some window-shopping then.


Karen and Amilia are at a phone shop.

Karen: Here’s a 3G cell phone. What does that mean?

Amilia: 3G stands for “third generation” technology cell-phones. They
play short videos and let you buy soda from vending machines,
things like that.

Karen: I’d really stand out at school if I had one.

Amilia: Not many people own them yet- that’s true.

Karen: How much does one cost?

Amilia: NT$25,000 easily.

Karen: Maybe I’ll stay at home to watch videos instead.
