Imagine you're enjoying dinner with your friends in a nice restaurant. You're having a great time when suddenly you hear a phone ringing at the table next to you. A man takes out his phone and starts talking for almost ten minutes! How will you feel? Maybe you'll feel uncomfortable, but you can do nothing about it.
This happens all the time, not only in a restaurant, but also on a bus, at a cinema, everywhere!
Cell phones are useful in our daily lives. But be careful not to be a noisy user and disturb others. You are supposed to control your own behavior. Here are a few rules.
Follow the rules! When you're in public places and see a sign that says "Turn off cell phones", don't use your phone. If you are allowed, speak softly for a short time and try to keep away from other people.
Phone off! Never make calls in a theater, when you are watching a movie or enjoying a concert.
Pay attention! Talking on a cell phone while driving is dangerous. And watch out where you're going when you're walking down the street and talking on the phone.
As more people use cell phones, things are going to get worse. So, the next time you're getting ready to make a call, stop and consider the people around you.
