A b c d, e. Now we are ready to start.0:09
Speaker A My favorite invention is the radio.0:42
Television controls you and stops you from doing things.0:47
But when you are listening to a radio program, you.0:50
You can do all sorts of things.0:53
Driving, cooking, reading, washing up, even taking a bath.0:55
Quite a lot of things.0:59
And you can listen to it anywhere.1:01
In the car, at work, riding a bike, walking in the country.1:03
It's much more practical than television.1:07
I'm used to listening to it all day long.1:09
Speaker B It's hard to decide.1:14
I. I know the worst invention is the nuclear bomb that can kill so many people at once.1:18
And the technology that I'd like to be invented is a vaccine against all illnesses imaginable.1:27
As for the best invention, it's probably the Internet, but I'm not sure.1:33
Or maybe the first spaceship that took man into space.1:39
There are so many really important breakthroughs that have changed our lives greatly.1:43
Speaker C My favourite invention is very simple.1:51
It's good for your health.1:56
It's fast and easy to use.1:58
You can go wherever you want and park practically anywhere.2:02
Everyone should have one.2:06
Poets and presidents, prime ministers and school teachers, journalists and scientists have said great things about cycling.2:08
Everybody will agree that cycling is the greatest means of transport ever invented by people.2:16
Speaker D the computer, of course.2:24
And I'm sure everybody will agree with me.2:27
I feel lucky to be part of the global village as I don't like talking on the phone.2:30
The computer lets me keep in touch with everyone, which is really great.2:36
I can't do without it.2:42
It has become part of my everyday life.2:43
But sometimes I really hate it.2:46
I want to pick it up and throw it out of the window.2:49
I sit in front of it for hours and play those cruel and silly games.2:53
Speakeree Many people would say it's the computer or the mobile phone, the telephone or the radio.3:02
But I think it's the clock.3:10
Yes, as simple as that.3:13
Without the clock, we would not be able to know the time.3:15
The question who invented the clock?3:18
Is one that I get asked quite often.3:20
It isn't an easy question to answer.3:23
The clock, as we know, was a gradually developed machine, not something that was invented in one day by one inventor.3:25
