communicate and influenced every aspect of our lives. The issue is whether this technological
innovation has done more harm than good.
In order to (23) the question, we must first turn to the type of consumer. Presumably,
most parents buy mobile phones for their teenagers to track their whereabouts and ensure
their safety. We can also assume that most teenagers want mobile phones to avoid missing
out (24)

social contact. In

this context, the advantages are clear. However, we cannot

deny the fact that text messages have been used by bullies to intimidate fellow students.
There is also (25) evidence that texting has affected literacy skills.
The ubiquitous use of the mobile phone has, (26)
too.

question, affected adult consumers,

What employee, on the way home from work, would be reluctant to answer a call from

their boss? Apparently, only 18% of us, according to a recent survey, are willing to switch off
our mobile phones once we've left the office.
Admittedly, mobile phones can be intrusive but there are obvious benefits to
possessing one. Personally speaking, they are invaluable when it comes to making social or
business arrangements at short (27) . According to a recent survey, they also provide their
owners with a sense of security in emergency situations.
In conclusion, mobile phones do have their drawbacks, but these are outweighed by
the benefits. I would argue that it is not the tool that chooses its purpose, but the user.

A generation gap in the workplace can make workers both young and old feel inferior,

as well as hamper productivity and teamwork. Differences between generations can be seen
in work ethics, habits and communication styles. Younger workers might fear not being taken
seriously by their older colleagues, while older workers might fear that their experience is not
valued but replaced by workers with knowledge of more current technology. However,
members of each generation can close the gap between them if they're willing to meet one
another halfway.
Older workers can show respect to the younger set by asking for their opinions and
recognizing their contributions to the workplace as valid, or complimenting them on a job
well done. Younger workers can show their elders respect by asking for advice on how to
manage a situation with work, based on the older worker's many years of experience. It's
important for both entry- and senior-level workers to see each other as equals, regardless of
the type of position in which they work. No one wants to feel inferior or irrelevant just
because of their age. Rather, a generation gap at work can be a learning opportunity.
Workers can also put themselves in their colleagues' shoes to determine what might be
bothering them about their generational age difference. If a person is much older than another,
perhaps it is bitterness about fewer job opportunities, or fear that a younger worker might
seem more relevant and edge him out of his job. If workers open their minds to understand
where co-workers are coming from, it can help ease any tension between them and appreciate
each other's

work contributions.
If age seems to be a problem for someone at the workplace, it can be helpful to do the
very opposite of what a co-worker might expect from someone of a different age set due to
stereotypes. For example, if a worker is considerably younger such as right out of college,
she can share researched information to indicate that she knows what she's doing, or show
curiosity instead of upset to indicate emotional maturity if the person makes a disparaging
remark about her youth. Older workers can maintain an enthusiastic attitude about work
instead of showing boredom or bitterness from past experiences.

Workers can, moreover, directly address the concern of age differences at work with
the colleague at odds with them by asking the person for constructive advice on how to
handle the issue. For example, older workers who are unfamiliar with new software that
younger colleagues understand might acknowledge to them that they did the same tasks
differently in years past but show interest in learning the program to keep up with modern
technology. Learning to speak their technological language can

make them feel more

connected. Likewise, a younger worker can admit to being green on the work scene, but
eager to gain experience by learning from senior colleagues.

covered with limestone. Inside are the number of hidden passageways and the burial
chamber of the Pharaoh. It is the largest single structure in the world. The four sides of
the pyramid are aligned almost exactly on true north, south, east and west-an incredible
engineering feat. The ancient Egyptians were sun worshippers and great astronomers, so

intersecting lines. Further scientific study indicates that these represent a type of timeline
of events - past, present and future. Many of the events have been interpreted and found to
coincide with known facts of the past. Others are prophesied for future generations and
are currently under investigation. Many believe that pyramids have supernatural powers

of ancient past.
