英語訪談對(duì)話 396 Classroom Technology

Everyone talks about how kids these days use technology much more than in the past, but when I think back to my childhood, I remember how technology was a huge part of my life. The first thing is the cassette tape, especially when I was in high school, every Friday night my favorite radio station used to play complete records, and I would stay up till about ten o'clock in the evening and have my cassette recorder ready and I would record the entire album, the entire record from the radio and then I would be able to play it in my car. I was born in 1971, so when I was a kid, people weren't using the internet but I had a computer in my house when I about 11 or 12 years old and my dad taught me some basic programming and I even created a program where I fooled one of my friends into thinking that we had entered into the computer record system at my school and he was getting a bad grade in social studies and I made it look like we had entered into the social studies records file and I changed his grade and he was very scared about this. He went home and told his dad and finally called me back later on that evening and said, "Hey, my dad said that you need a modem to break into another computer."
