你還記得第一次拿到手機時的興奮心情嗎?本週的《英語咖啡館》John 老師和 Patrick 老師要和大家聊聊手機如何改變我們的生活,從笨重的功能型手機到現在生活中不可或缺的智慧型手機!

John 老師是在上世紀末,2000年以前的非洲拿到第一支手機!而且當時還有一個台灣沒有的特別功能,讓 John 老師覺得很頭痛? Patrick 老師則分享了一個高中時期的爆笑惡作劇,差點促成一段良緣?兩位老師的第一支手機經歷截然不同,一位在南非,手機就是奢侈品,一位在台灣,從國中就開始用二手機。

另外你知道台灣的手機普及率在全世界排名如何嗎?台灣人平均一天花幾小時滑手機呢?本集節目最後也帶來三個實用的手機相關英語慣用語,讓你輕鬆學會道地英語!

Do you still remember the excitement of getting your first mobile phone? This week on English Cafe, John and Patrick chat with everyone about how mobile phones have changed our lives, from bulky feature phones to the smartphones that are now indispensable in our daily lives!

John got his first mobile phone in Africa before the year 2000, at the end of the last century! And it even had a special feature that Taiwan didn't have at the time, which gave John quite a headache? Patrick shares a hilarious high school prank that almost led to a romantic connection? The two teachers had completely different first mobile phone experiences—one in South Africa where phones were luxury items, and one in Taiwan where he started using second-hand phones from junior high.

Also, do you know how Taiwan's mobile phone penetration rate ranks globally? How many hours per day does the average Taiwanese person spend on their phone? The episode concludes with three practical mobile phone-related English idioms to help you learn authentic English effortlessly!
