My first point is that computers can multitask.
13
On computer, you can play games,
14
you can entertain yourself and you can revise education-wise and watch films.
15
Accepted.
16
But some information is not even true, like in answer.com.
17
Some of them could be even opinions.
18
And that might mean not true.
19
However, some information, for example,
20
say Wikipedia, can hold accurate information.

Moving on, computers can help boost minds and can be used for all ages.

29
The first opposition is going to be Saleh.
30
Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Saleh and my three points are hackers and security,
31
unreliable and health issues.
32
My first point is hackers and security.
33
Computers cause a a lot of crimes
34
because especially theft lots of people have been hacking computer systems
35
because lots of people on the does online shopping
36
which means the hackers could get the credit card details and
37
which means the police can't find them from
38
if they got a really good source my second point is
39
unreliable information lots of people go on computers to ask a question but then again
40
have you thought about they always give bad answer such as my friend he got an exam and he did
41
got answers from the computer and his test result was 10 out of 100 what does that tell you
42
my first point is health issues
43
your your your friend should have should have known
44
that um this the answers would have been and why was he cheating in the first place?
45
But that's not what I'm saying.
46
The computers don't give unreliable information,
47
which means what if people need help for the GCSEs?
48
How can they do it?
49
As I was saying, my third point is health issues.
50
Lots of people spend their time on computers,
51
which means their hands could get sore.
52
And once some guy, he was going on the computer
53
so many days and his hand was crippled and he couldn't write anything.
54
Every time when he tried to write,
55
the pencil just keeps coming off.
56
Thank you for listening to me and I hope you vote for us.
57
The second opposition speaker is going to be Nadia.
58
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
59
My name is Nadia, and today's motion is computers are better than books.
60
My partner, Yasmin, has already explained about multitasking and computers have more information than books.
61
I will be explaining iPads or computers and parental guidance.
62
The first opposition speaker said about hackers.
63
The police will find out what site the person has gone on and would locate the address and soon find out.
64
Also, you explained about health issues.
65
Your friend should have not been on that long.
66
His parents should have told him that he shouldn't be on that long.
67
Now on to my reasons.
68
My third reason is iPads are like computers.
69
iPads are the new latest things.
70
You can have many different apps on them.
71
Also, you can get education games and apps.
72
Also, there's an app accepted.
73
iPads are Norway as computers.
74
Computers have a keyboard and iPads are tablets.
75
Tablets are way different because they have apps.
76
And they play your touch screen and that.
77
Computers are not touch screen.
78
I don't see a computer having touch screen and that.
79
So how could an iPad be a computer?
80
Well, they're slightly different but you can get the same apps that a computer has,
81
like Internet Explorer.
82
Moving on back to my reasons.
83
Also there's an app called iBooks,
84
which the But picture books can come alive and move about,
85
so it will be more interesting for young children.
86
My second reason is parental guidance.
87
Parents can check on history,
88
what their child has been on.
89
But in books, the child can easily hide the inappropriate books they've been reading.
90
And the parent can block inappropriate sites.
91
Thank you for listening and vote for us.
92
The opposition's second speaker is Katia.
93
Good morning ladies and gentlemen.
94
My name is Katia and this motion is that computers are better than books.
95
My first point is that books are more trustworthy.
96
For Wikipedia for example, anybody could just put some information on it and contribute.
97
However, for a book, if you wanted to write a book of dinosaurs,
98
who would it be?
99
Just any person writing about dinosaurs or an expert.
100
I'm sure you could answer that out.
101
Also, when you're reading books,
102
it could give you the right information.
103
For example, once I looked on the computer
104
and I tried to find some information
105
and then after I looked it up on a book and they had similar reasons, however...
106
Accepted.
107
However, there are some suitable and trustworthy sites such as revision sites,
108
for example bite-size, and that can help with revision.
109
However, most of the information that goes onto the computer are from books.
110
My second point is about libraries.
111
Some people may say, oh it takes ages to find a book in the library.
112
However it doesn't because libraries are usually split up into fiction and non-fiction and are in alphabetical order.
113
So if you wanted to find a revision book,
114
for example, and you need the name of the revision book,
115
you could go to non-fiction and then you could look it up in the alphabetical order and you would find your...
116
Rejected.
117
And you would find your website and you would find your information more easily.
118
My final point is that books are better for your imagination.
119
For example, if you wanted to be an artist,
120
artists can't always be on the computer.
121
For example, they might say,
122
oh, I can see this picture,
123
so I'm just going to add a few bits here and a few bits there.
124
But they can't because it wouldn't be that unique.
125
However, if you went on a book and you read it and then after you're like,
126
oh, I'm going make a picture about it because my imagination tells me
127
that I should put some swirly lines here and there.
128
Then that means it would be very unique.
129
Thank you for listening to me and I hope you vote for us.
130
Now it's time for the floor debate.
131
Is there any questions?
132
The second opposition said that it's easy to find books in the library,
133
but sometimes the person in the library says the book is finished,
134
but when you go on the internet they don't say you can't find the information because it's finished or anything.
135
You can go and they'll tell you the information
136
when you go into Wikipedia or any other website that tells you the information.
137
Some people say that computers can break,
138
like, can hurt your eyes,
139
but people can go to the shops or something like that and buy,
140
like, a screen that protects your eyes.
141
And the second speaker on the opposition said some people can say
142
that books take too long to find but
143
and maybe the book isn't there and maybe the person is looking all around
144
and what if they couldn't find it so and maybe there isn't anybody working there like telling you what you should find.
145
This is for the proposition.
146
In addition to the opposition's reasons books are better than computers
147
because when you read a book you can emphasise with the character
148
because when was the last time you feel emotional watching YouTube
149
is there any more questions I agree with the proposition side
150
because if you like rip a book you can't see um
151
and then after you sell it a bit you can't really read though
152
and what now the opposition summary speaker is Nadine thank you for Thank you for the questions.
153
Now I want to first thank my two colleagues Sally and Katia.
154
I want to answer some questions.
155
One of the questions was that in the library
156
if they ran out of books that's tough luck
157
but you can still find another book that could be similar and as well they said that you could buy a
158
protective eye screen and but what if you can't afford it
159
and maybe there's no such a thing as that and that's what I'm doing some rebuttals.
160
Computers are mostly made up by books and when they try
161
and fit in some information they only take like one part
162
but maybe there's a part that's that's really important but they missed
163
that out that's why sometimes it's not true as well now
164
I want to just summarize my team's points now our self
165
sellers his first point was security issues one person one one child
166
and she was 14 and she died just about Facebook she was giving out personal information
167
and she got murdered and so there's uneniable things and
168
and different things they don't tell the truth and
169
so health issues people when they are when they use too much computer
170
and they they get really aggressive
171
and they could punch somebody in the face really badly now
172
I want to go to a carriers points the first one
173
is what books trustworthy books are more they're more true it has more truth in the books than in computers
174
and so imagination when you read
175
when you have a picture in front you don't have enough imagination
176
but when you read the book and
177
when it's no pictures you have imagination they feel like you're dead and the Zoya library.
178
Why did it library?
179
To get books and books are like mostly one of the most important things in our life
180
because we need to learn how to read by book we need to then
181
and so if you read books you learn how to write you improve your writing.
182
Thank you for listening to me I hope you vote for us.
183
The summary speaker for the proposition is Rosie.
184
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
185
I'm Rosie.
186
And the motion we are proposing today is Computers are Better Than Books.
187
A speaker from the floor said that you can buy a screen that protects eyes.
188
I agree, despite the fact that people shouldn't need a screen,
189
they shouldn't be on a computer for that long that it hurts them.
190
Another speaker said that you can't find a book in a library.
191
Yes, but that's exactly why computers are needed to use research,
192
because otherwise you won't be able to find out useful information for your homework.
193
Another speaker from the floor said that you can't empathise with the internet.
194
But can't you empathise with people who live with you or who people are at school who are close to you?
195
Our team's main reasons for being in favour of information are multitasking.
196
You can open several pages at once,
197
which means that you can take in different streams of information at the same time.
198
Our second point was that a computer holds more information than an entire library.
199
Think of how much space you're saving with one computer than having a big room full of books.
200
Our third point was iPads.
201
They're the latest things.
202
And you can buy all sorts of books on an iPad.
203
And some of them are even cheaper or free.
204
Our fourth point was parental guidance.
205
And that you can block sites and you can check what your child's been on.
206
This say this you can't do that with a book so imagine what your child would be reading
207
The reason the other team's reasons were hackers and security
208
Security software can be brought installed plus police can follow energy traces and arrest the hacker their second point was and reliable.
209
That's because of people joking.
210
If you want information that's reliable,
211
then you should find a reliable site.
212
Thank you for listening, voters.
213
Now it's time for the vote.
214
Who votes for the opposition?
215
Who votes for the opposition?
216

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
