Exercícios sobre Simple Present
Questão 1
(Unifor-CE/2001)
In the age-old battle between independence-seeking teenagers and worried parents, the older generation is packing some new weapons. Caller ID tells parents who is calling their kids. Cell-phone bills detail every local number the kid has called. New computer programs track just about everything − every Web site visited, every e-mail sent − that a teenager does online.
Parental reconnaissance is going to get worse − or good, depending on your perspective.
