summary:

Come July, SingTel users in Singapore will be able to get their hands on the Apple iPhone 3G S, the most significant hardware upgrade yet for the popular touchscreen smartphone.


Opinion 1:

The New Iphone is upgraded with new functions and applications.It is everything you need and more.If you get lost there is a global positioning system therefore,you can locate where you are whenever you want.It has a unlimited amount of applications you can download over the internet.More and more people are tempted to buy one.Most of those who sucumb to temptation are adults.

Opinion 2:

Basically a phone is to be used for one purpose;to talk for appropriate reasons.There is no need for special gadgets like that.Any simple phone will do. This also caused more teenagers to get spoilt.Their parents would buy more expensive handphones.The number of children who have handphones are tremendously increasing.Some parents even buy phones for children who dont need it.This can make a child believe that he or she does not need to study or work hard as they will always be financially supported by their parents.This will also cause the child to loose their drive to do well or suceed in life.

An elevated railway line which once carried freight over the tough streets of New York's Meatpacking District reopened Monday as the city's newest and trendiest park.

Opinion 1:

The park is actually a very good idea as it would make an amazing tourist attraction.Although there is alot of hustle and bustle in New York,this can be a good place where stressed people come to unwind and relax.The park is going to be built on an old elevated railway station.It will be called the 'Skypark' and it will virtually float in the sky due to the height of the railway station from the ground.This adds on to the tranquility of the park.If you ask me,its a controversial act and New York may face problems in the long run.


Opinion 2:

The park will be a good tourist attraction but wont New York be destroying a historic landmark?The railway lines has been in New York for centuries.It has been used during the World War 2.How would the public respond to the news?Would they be happy that a new and futuristic park is going to be constructed or would they be dispappointed that a historic landmark is going to be demolished.
