Favourite gadget

The other day in class one of my students asked me to teach them some vocabulary related to computers and electronic devices, so I'm going to start a series of posts on this very interesting topic.  

To begin with I've found a podcast where people are asked what their favourite gadget is. It's quite interesting, since people from different countries are asked this question and, therefore, you can listen to different dialects. 

Favourite gadget

To listen to it, follow the link and then press the play button. Remember to hide the transcript, so you can listen to the audio without reading it. On the same webpage on the right you have a vocabulary quiz and some questions to check your comprehension. 

Enjoy the practice!
