1. Market Leaders
Most mobile phones sold today have an operating system that was either
designed by Apple or Google. Apple makes the iOS operating system powering
their iPhones and iPads. Google makes the Android operating system that can
be found on many different mobile phones and tablets. Both of these operating
systems allow users to connect to app stores and download applications. To
launch these applications, users press small square buttons that appear on their
home screens. One major difference between these two operating systems is
that Apple makes all of its own hardware. That is to say, the iOS operating
system only appears on products created by Apple. On the other hand, many
different manufacturers like Samsung, Sony, and LG use the Android operating
system. Which one do you like better: Android or iOS?
2. Downloading Apps
Getting a new phone is a really cool feeling, but your phone can’t do much
without applications. In order to get the most from your new phone, you need to
download apps. To do this you will need a data connection. Some plans allow

you to get data from your phone network. If your plan lets you to do this, you can
connect to web services anywhere that your phone gets a signal. If your plan
does not let you to do this, you will need to connect your device to a Wi-Fi
network. Free Wi-Fi can be found at coffee shops, laundry mats, and other public
locations. Once your phone is receiving data, go to the application store on the
device. Use the search or browse functions to find fun, interesting, or useful
programs. Once you have found an application that you want to try, click the
button to download and install it on your device. Not all applications are free, so
make sure that you know how much the app costs before agreeing to download
it. Also, if you are under the age of 18, get your parent’s permission before
downloading anything. You’ll like your new phone so much more once you have
some cool apps.
Day 4: ASSESSMENT
1. The dodo bird used to roam in large flocks across America. Interestingly, the
dodo wasn’t startled by gun shot. Because of this, frontiersmen would kill entire
flocks in one sitting. Unable to sustain these attacks, the dodo was hunted to
extinction.
2. Jack and Jill ran up the hill to fetch a pail of water. Jack fell down and broke
his crown and Jill came tumbling after.
3. Linux and Windows are both operating systems. Computers use them to run
programs. Linux is totally free and open source, so users can improve or
otherwise modify the source code. Windows is proprietary, so it costs money to
use and users are prohibited from altering the source code.
4. Here are the three worst things that you can do on a date. First, you could tell
jokes that aren’t funny and laugh really hard to yourself. This will make you look
bad. Worse though, you could offend your date. One bad “joke” may cause your
date to lash out at you, hence ruining the engagement. But the worst thing that
you can do is to appear slovenly. By not showering and properly grooming, you
may repulse your date, and this is the worst thing that you can do.
5. Thousands of people die each year in car accidents involving drugs or alcohol.
Lives could be saved if our town adopts a free public taxi service. By providing
such a service, we could prevent intoxicated drivers from endangering
themselves or others.
