Hi, I’m Katy. I think this invention is extremely useful. It has become an important part of our lives. I simply can’t imagine how we can do without it. It is so easy to get the information you need staying in your flat or house. And it is much quicker than it was before when people used only books and encyclopedias as their sources of information.
Hello, my name is Alex. I hate washing up! So for me this device is the most important invention of the previous century. You put dirty cups, plates, pots and pans in it, press the button and in about an hour they are all clean.
Let me introduce myself. I’m Don. I think it is great to be able to watch films, sports events, different shows without leaving your home. I like it when you can travel around the world while sitting on the sofa. You can even get advice on cooking.
I’m Patricia and I’m a housewife. I don’t know how people managed before we had this invention. It would take me ages to clean the house without it. And you can never achieve the same result with a duster, a bucket of water and a broom.
My name is John. I’m not a very good cook. But thanks to this invention I have no problems in the kitchen. I just buy fruit, vegetables, milk and other dairy products and they can be kept fresh for rather long. I can’t imagine how people used to keep food fresh without this device, especially when it was hot outside.
Hello, I’m Emma. In my opinion this little thing is the most useful invention of the 20th century, at least for me it is. I go out a lot. And I used to worry about my grandparents who are no longer young. Now it’s great, I just leave the house and I know I can contact them from any place where I’m and they also can give me a call any time.

My name is Josh. I spend about ten pounds a week including the money I spend on my bus to school. I save my money up to come to Camden Market. I buy clothes, boots and other things there. I often buy things on impulse just because I like them.
My name is Walter, I am seventeen. I spend about thirty pounds a week. I spend money on going out, buying CDs, going to the cinema or anything I like. I don’t think that lessons on how to spend money effectively would be useful for my age group — but maybe for younger kids.
I’m Jennifer. I’m a university student and I have to survive on sixty pounds a week, the money I have borrowed from a bank. It’s not easy. I spend my money on food, buses and going out. I don’t think that young people want to listen to lessons about how to spend their money.
Hi, Victoria here. I think that lessons on how to spend money are a good idea. More and more products appear on the market nowadays and a lot of them are produced for teenagers. Boys and girls buy them because they think they are fashionable, but they don’t really need them. Personally I don’t like shopping. There are too many people in the shops.
Hello, my name is Hannah. I get fifty pounds a month from my family and about twenty-five pounds for my job as a cleaner. I spend my money on clothes, books and sometimes food. My mum saves money for me.
