　　Describe an application you often use on your phone or computer.

　　You should say:

　　What it is

　　When you started to use it

　　Why you often use it

　　And explain how you feel about it

　　An app that I always use is a photo app that makes your photos look more beautiful, or adds fancy or amusing images to your pictures – sometimes even animations. This app is quite fun and popular for a number of reasons. Sometimes I use it to make myself look younger, with smoother skin or a nicer skin tone – especially if I am a bit blotchy or spotty in a photo! On other occasions I use it to add little cartoon stars or images to my photos to make my friends laugh or create an amusing effect. The animations you can add to photos with this app are quite cool as well. For example you can choose a Ming Dynasty headdress and the app will actually follow you around in a video so it looks like you’re really wearing it. It kind of stays on your head, so to speak. This kind of video animation is really quite funny and a lot of young people like it. I guess I started using it a few years ago when it first came out, and everyone was really excited about it. To be honest I don’t use the app as much nowadays as I used to – I sort of got bored of it when the novelty wore of. It’s that kind of thing – it’s sort of a gimmick really – you have fun with it for a while, but then you lose interest. So, now I use it a lot less. I still use the beautifying features though so I can look better in photos that I share with friends or on my WeChat moments.

　　Part 3

　　1. Which phone app is the most popular one in your country?

　　WeChat is the most popular phone app in my country, by far. It has become our main communication tool, and people even use it to send work documents – so it has functions and features that are useful way beyond just chatting with friends. It also has a pay feature which connects to your bank account, so you can use it to pay for things quickly and efficiently in stores.

　　2. Do you think parents should limit the time that their children spend on phones?

　　Most definitely – some kids spend way too much time staring at their phone screens, playing games, messing around on apps. These things can cause children to become anti-social, to ignore human face-to-face interaction in favour of chatting to friends or playing games on the phone. Children really need to be disciplined in this regard and given time-limits when they are allowed to play on computer games or phones.

　　3. Do you think people rely on phone apps too much?

　　Yes, I do think so. In my country so much is done through apps now, and actually I find it quite frustrating to have to do everything with an app. Although it has some benefits and can make certain things quicker and easier and more efficient, it can also be problematic and often these apps don’t work properly, or you get into problems when you change your phone number, and things like this.

　　4. What kind of apps might help people to study?

　　There are a lot of educational apps available these days, for children of all ages, and for adults too. Language apps, mathematics apps – all sorts. Some of them are very good, and because they are way more engaging than books, and interactive, so sometimes they are better for learning than the more traditional methods.
