It backs to just over 7000 years ago, and in 1800s decades a GHAJAR king selected Tehran as the capital of Iran, although throughout history the capital has changed many times by different governments.

PART 3 (Discussion)Q. Could you please explain with some examples about the changes of technology which are used by people in our daily life between now and the past 20 years? A. Nowadays cell phones, washing machines, vacuum cleaners, TV, refrigerators, air conditioners, microwave oven etc. are pretty common in our daily life but 20 years ago those were rare. There were very few companies that used computers and the internet but this has become very common in workplaces nowadays. One of the most obvious modifications is the usage of robots in industries. These intelligent mechanized devices have helped us to be able to manufacture products far simpler than before. For example, for producing a car, now engineers use them to assemble just over 90% of all parts of them, and humans’ role has become less obvious in this industry, while 20 years ago this technology was not so popular. The Internet is the most common technology that we use every day. By accessing to it, we can communicate to other people through our computer, checking our email, downloading our favorite files or watching online movies; however, in the past, they were not invented, and people did not know anything about this method of connection. Q. Whether the equipment you've ever mentioned in your examples is used in your home? A. Yes, most of them. We have a large 3D TV, washing machine, vacuum cleaner, washing machine, laptop, internet connection and refrigerator at our home. Q. How about other Iranian families? A. Most of the upper-middle class and upper-class people in Iran have those types equipment at their home. Poor people can’t always afford to buy expensive devices like laptop, air conditioners etc. but the usages of those types equipment are spreading faster than ever before. In developed countries, people have access to more modern systems and technology has developed faster there; however, globalization has created our world a better place for all humans, including Iranians. These people have had important roles in the development of computer industries, and the computer has become part of their daily life. Q. What development the technology will have in the future? A. Definitely, progress in modernization will continue faster than being expected in many sectors. For instance, in transportation, flight cars might become a popular method of transport, and many families will use a car which can have wings for flying and traffic will be addressed in many cities. I read a similar article about these cars recently. Computers and the internet would become the most common tools among people and every company would greatly depend on that. Many new technological devices that we now see in science fiction movies would become common household devices. Q. Do you think it is important? A. Yes, it is. Absolutely, humans will have a more convenient lifestyle. On the one side, using more developed systems and devices will help people to have a more comfortable living condition, but they might pollute our environment more. The development and technology are the roots of progress and when our ancestors lived in caves, we are now landing on other planets. Who knows maybe we will build a colony on other planets in the future. Q. How often do you access the internet? A. I use it every day to learn the English Language. Listening to the news, reading articles, downloading study materials or checking my email are the most reasons I use my computer and the Internet in my daily life. Q. Do you have a computer? A. Yes, I do. As I explained in the last section, I have a personal laptop and I use it every day for studying and connection to the Internet. Thank you. That's the end of the IELTS Speaking Test. |
