1. Does the development of technology affect the way we study?
Sure, technology has changed our lives in many ways and the way we learn 
things is not an exception too. 
To kick off,
it has made the learning process 
way easier than before. 
What I mean is
in the past people used to get 
information only from books and it was time-consuming, they would go to 
libraries or used to take special courses to learn new skills or a language 
whereas
nowadays as most people have mobile phones and gadgets they can 
learn anything more quickly than ever before. Even you don’t have to go 
outside, let’s say, you want to pick up a new language, you can watch millions 
of lessons on YouTube, there are a bunch of professional and experienced 
teachers online tutors and you can learn a language you want even at home.
2. Why do technology companies often upgrade their products?
Just to stay in business, as you know the competition is fierce in the job 
market. They have to be making innovations and improving their services 
and products all the time because there is a cut throat competition in global 
market when it comes to digital products. Also, I think humans are curious 
beings, they always want things to be improving. For example, a person who 
is perfectly contented with iPhone 13 might not like it having used it after a 
year and want a better, newer replacement for it, so that’s why it is also one 
of the ways to meet customers’ needs.

3. Why are people so keen on buying iPhones even though they haven’t changed 
much from one to next?
I believe it is to do with their social standing. Whenever iPhone releases a 
new phone literally millions of people rush to buy it instantaneously, 
because having the latest version of iPhone represents that you are rich 
enough to buy Apple products, and it is a 
plus
for your social status. You 
automatically climb up in your socio -economic status. But personally, I 
don’t think people should do that, I don’t see any logic behind it. Because, 
they don’t differ much from one to another.
4. How does technology affect our lives?
Technology pretty much has changed each and every aspect of our lives 
ranging from the way we communicate to buy things. I mean, nowadays, it 
is pretty much easier to maintain relationships with our friends who live in 
remote areas thanks to technology, yeah, internet and mobile phones have 
connected people all around the world. As for purchasing products, now we 
can do online shopping, we no longer have to go outside and get grocery, 
clothes and everything, we can have them delivered to our house or wherever 
we want.
