Hi Kavin and Jack.
Discussion Questions
1. How did you learn to type?
I learned to type when I studied for 2 years at University and I started a part-time job. At that time in the interview, the first question was can I use a computer? Unfortunately, we hadn’t a computer in our house. It was very difficult to find an internet cafe in our city. Fortunately, my father’s friend worked at the University at the computer center. I asked permission from him to use the computer, but he never helps me. He shows me how to turn up and turn off the computer and then said the best way to learn computer you should learn by yourself. The first time it was very hard. I thought I never learn this.2. How old were you when you first used the internet?
2. How old were you when you first used the internet?
I started to use the internet at age 21. I agree, with Kevin now that using the internet is different and very easy to use, but, when we used the internet at that time we log into it and turn it on.
3. How old were you when you got your first smartphone?
I bought my first smartphone in 2007. It’s was Chinese products. There are use only his own simcard.
4. Do you enjoy playing computer games? Why or why not?
I do not enjoy playing computer games. I don’t edict in it. A long time ago, one day it was on Sunday. I go to work at 7:30 am. I do my work for 1 hour and then I started to play Da Vinci games. I forgot about it all my life and play this game all day. My Mom calls me and asks where are you. It’s almost 9 o’clock but you are not at the home. I said I’m at my work. She was a craze and said On Sunday at 9 o’clock and you are at work. Which work? I saw it out of the window. It was dark outside. I told to my mom I will be at home after 20 minutes. I told her all story and I promised my mom I will never play a game on the computer. That’s why I don’t want to play a computer game.
