2. How many mobile phones have you had in your life and what do you do

with the old, broken ones? Most people throw them away. In fact,

digital waste is a growing problem for society. Dutch designer Dave

Hakken has come up with an amazing idea to reduce such waste. The

Phoneblocks concept is a mobile phone made up of little blocks that can be replaced

when they stop working. This means that you can keep your phone forever and just

replace the broken parts. You can also build the ideal phone for your personal needs.

The designer is trying to spread the word about his idea. His goal is to find 50,000

supporters so that the mobile phone industry will take notice.

What is Phoneblocks?

A a new system to recycle mobiles phones

B a new kind of smartphone

C a new idea to build mobile phones that last longer

D a new mobile phone that never breaks

Ejemplo tem b.: READING 2 Look at the sentences below about working on a childrens summer camp. Read the text and decide if each sentence (1 to 10) is correct or incorrect. If its correct, mark T; if its not correct, mark F. Justify your answer according to the text.

Summer jobs in childrens camps

Camp America is an organization that runs over 12,000 childrens summer camps in the USA. All

the camps are in the countryside and some are in areas of outstanding natural beauty. Different

types of camps are available. While some are designed mainly for sports activities, others are

suitable for children with different interests. Accommodation is provided at the majority of

camps but some children attend during the day and return home in the evening.

Camp America offers a variety of summer jobs for young people. Some allow you to work

directly with children teaching sport, dancing or arts and require relevant qualifications. There

are other jobs working with children, however, that do not require special skills or

qualifications. In these roles you help to run activities and take care of children after organised

events have finished.

If you do not want to work with children, there are other jobs available, such as office work,

laundry work and food preparation. You do not have responsibility for any children in these

roles, so you often have more free time in the evenings.

You can make paper or online applications for summer camp jobs. To complete a paper

application you need to write us requesting a form which you then need to complete and

return. We will send you a list of interviewers located in your area and you need to select one to

arrange a convenient time for an interview. You can apply online by visiting our How to Apply

Section on our main website. Here you can fill out our application form and select an

interviewer.


DF-D-351 Edicin: 2 01/02/2013

There are certain general requirements that all applicants must meet: you must be 18 years of

age or older, speak fluent English and be able to provide two references. It is also essential that

you are available for work for a minimum of nine weeks and able to leave for the USA no later

than June 28 and return no earlier than August 24.

If you are successful at interview, we will inform you immediately where you will be working in

the USA. We will also help you with your visa application. This involves attending an interview at

the US embassy in your home country. We will also have to pay the embassy fee for visa

applications. This fee is currently $100 but can increase without notice.

We arrange your free return flights and your transfer by bus from the airport to your summer

camp. While you are working at the camp you receive pocket money and free accommodation

and food. You may choose to travel around the USA once your work has finished. If you inform
