C. Do you know famous inventors? Write them down (you can do research on the internet of
course). Do you know famous inventors from your own country?
Marie Curie: She discovered radiation and polonium.
Emilio Herrera: He discovered the space suit to take man to the moon.
Ramón Verea: He discovered the first modern calculator in the world.
D. A very important invention is of course the mobile phone. What do you use your phone for?
How do you think people managed without mobile phones 30 years ago? Write at least 40 words.

I use the mobile for the studies and talking with my friends. And see the social media too.
I think it wasn't used the mobile phone because it didn’t exist, it was traditional landline
telephone to talk with the people and meeting friends. So I think the modern phone is a big
change for people born in that era, because they communicated via the landline or
traditional telephone.
