Cellular Phone

I went back home just now from the tavern I belong to.

You probably know Mirai Moriyama, who is a famous dancer and actor in Japan. Recently he has got around to several performances of the dance live, in the story of which he plays the leading part, so his energetic activity in various domain as well as recent one has been greatly expected. The other day, I heard an interesting story of him that, to my surprise, he doesn't have a cellular phone. "Unbelievable!!!", I said involuntarily. Can you live without cellular phone?

The reaction, such as "Unbelievable!!!"or "I can't believe it!!!", should be natural at present because we always make good use of this convenient apparatus as you know.To be sure, we can survive without them, but it should be better that each of us has one cellular phone. If not, we would not have such a reaction. But some critics find fault with cellular phones to spend their free time or their work time on the assumption that the influence of celullar phones is worse and more dangerous than ever, especially for young people. This opinion is, I think, to the point in a sense. What is the bad point of cellular phones? Please tell me your opinion!!!
