Answer 3

a) My favorite gadget is my smartphone. It can do a lot of things, such as making calls, sending messages, browsing the internet, taking photos, listening to music, playing games, and much more. It's like a mini-computer that fits in my pocket.

b) I use my smartphone every day, multiple times a day. I rely on it for various tasks, from checking emails and social media to navigating and staying connected with friends and family. It has become an essential part of my daily routine.

c) The longest time I spent without my favorite gadget was when I went on a week-long camping trip in a remote area where there was no cell phone signal or electricity. I intentionally left my smartphone behind to disconnect from the digital world and enjoy the tranquility of nature.

d) Initially, I felt a bit anxious and restless without my favorite gadget. I was so used to having instant access to information and constant communication that it felt strange to be disconnected. However, as the days went by, I started to appreciate the break from technology. I was able to fully immerse myself in the present moment, enjoy the beauty of nature, and engage in meaningful conversations with my camping companions. It was a refreshing experience that made me realize how dependent I had become on my smartphone.
