TELEPATHY
MC: Hi everyone. Today, I'll ask some members of the Technology Club to predict how people will communicate in the future. Let’s meet Minh and Tom.
Minh & Tom: Hi everyone.
MC: Minh and Tom, how do you and your friends keep in contact?
Minh: Well, we mostly text each other. We also send voice messages.
Tom: I often see my friends in person, but sometimes we call via the Internet.
MC: Do you think these ways of communication will still be popular in 50 years?
Tom: Not really. We'll use more advanced ways, like telepathy. We'll pass our thoughts to another person without talking and...
MC: Hold on. I think only a very few people may have this ability.
Minh: Yes, but in the future, everyone will be able to use telepathy. We'll wear a tiny device to catch our thoughts and send them to other people.
MC: Cool! But will there be any problems with telepathy?
Tom: Hmm, telepathy devices can “read” one’s mind, so bad people might take advantage of it to control someone else.
MC: Besides that, some people will be too lazy to even talk anymore.

Thảo luận (2)Hướng dẫn giảiTham khảo
I think there are both advantages and disadvantages of online calls. Internet calls are cheap or even free. Many social networks provide free calls for people to communicate. Online calls help us to communicate with people that are really far away from us, for example, our relatives or our Internet friends. Moreover, you can create group calls when you are in need of hosting a conference or a family meeting. However, online calls also have drawbacks. You can’t make online calls unless you have Internet connection. Also, you need a smart device to perform a call. Sometimes, you may get unwanted calls from the person you don’t know.
