  Hello, dear listener, and welcome into IELTS Speaking Part 3.

• 00:08

  We are talking about applications, apps.

• 00:12

  Rory here is super excited to talk about technology.

• 00:15

  For once.

• 00:16

  Because Rory has a smartphone.

• 00:18

  I do have a smartphone, yes.

• 00:20

  And different apps.

• 00:22

  Don't ask me what brand it is, but it's a smartphone.

• 00:31

  Do you think young people are more and more reliant on computer programs and apps?

• 00:38

  They certainly have more access to them and seem more adept at using them, but I don't think it's just young people who need them.

• 00:44

  I mean, old people definitely benefit from using them,

• 00:48

  and if they don't, they frequently get young people to help them with that kind of thing.

• 00:54

  Should parents limit their children's use of computer programs and computer games?

• 01:00

  I really don't know.

• 01:02

  I mean, surely that depends on whether it's bad for them or not.

• 01:05

  And some kids can just sit and play games with no repercussions.

• 01:09

  So if that's the case, then I don't see the need.

• 01:13

  And why could it be a good idea to limit their time?

• 01:17

  I suppose if playing video games is limiting their opportunities to develop or have a happy and healthy life,

• 01:26

  then, well, they could just cut them off completely.
