35、ndependent reading classes.DSomething I enjoy doing most in my leisure time is going to the cinema to watch a great film. Its two hours of relaxation and escapism from real life. But when I kick back in my seat to enjoy the film and tuck into my box of popcorn, Im often irritated by seeing someone n
36、ext to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still, talking to someone. Its no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones during some film screenings was met with such anger, that the company had to withdraw the idea. People said it was the worst idea ever! Sure
37、ly, going to watch the latest film is just that watching not multi-screening. And if youre out with a friend it seems very antisocial or just rude.
