REFLECTIONS AND FURTHER DISCUSSION
(1) BE RESPONSIBLE! We entrust our LIVES to the bus and taxi drivers. They should act RESPONSIBILY.
We should learn to be socially responsible.
(2) INTERNET AND COMPUTER ADDICTION Many people are addicted to the
internet and computer. It interferes with their daily life, work,
and relationships. He/she may spend excessive time on
computer, have trouble completing other tasks, neglects their family and friends.
Manage by having other interests and social activities and setting time limits flrafor for accessing computer!
(3) THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!
Almost everyone has a phone or other gadget (eg tablet) with camera functions nowadays.
So, think before you act or risk being caught red-handed!
