I have to work with computers and phones all the time in my work, either sitting in front of a (1) screen or living by
the apps on my mobile. I think the number of voice-to-voice phone calls has gone down a lot in the last few years,
but with Facebook, Twitter, and so on, I feel sort of chained to (2) technology the entire length of the working
week. So when the weekend comes – and I’m afraid for me that’s Saturday morning, not Friday night – there’s
nothing I like better than (3) switching off the computer, the mobile and the landline and enjoying real peace and
quiet. We live near to some fields and open country, and I can listen to the birds sing, go for long walks, maybe
drop in at our local pub and have a drink with some of the locals. It’s not exciting, I grant you, but it’s very (4)
relaxing and helps me remember I’m a human being, not a part of some computerised machine. Of course, by
Sunday night I’m already thinking about the working week ahead, but never mind. I’ve had those two days to
recharge my batteries, as they say.
Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the questions from 1 to 4
A smart board is an interactive whiteboard. It can be connected to one or more laptops, PCs, tablets, or other
electronic devices. Smart boards are extremely useful in a classroom because they can engage students, provide
interactive opportunities that a traditional whiteboard, blackboard or flip chart can't.
Smart boards also have touch-screen technology so you do not actually need a computer to access the basic
functionality. You can write on a smart board with special pens which are usually provided with the board, and
anything written on the board can be saved for future reference, or printed out. It is great, for example, if you are
doing a brainstorming session or a mind map with your classmates and you want to keep a record of it.
If you don't want to draw with the pens, you can use a keyboard and type onto a program such as Word,
and have it appear on the screen for everyone to see. This is great if you are doing an exercise with your class and
you want everyone to be able to see the answers during the checking stage. You can also run PowerPoint
presentations on an interactive whiteboard. These can sometimes be great for grammar or vocabulary presentations
and the advantage of them is that students can make contributions.
If you have the Internet access, you can access websites and put them onto a white board. This is great in an
English classroom if you have online quizzes or games you want to use. Students can actually come up to the board
and select their answers. This involves them directly in the board work, which they usually love. In short, a smart
board can make the lessons more varied, and can give students a more active role in the lesson.
