Read the text below and answer the questions:
In the not-too-distant future, in the year 2030, Brazilian scientists discover a new planet. This is not surprising, because researchers have been suspicious of the possibility of other habitable places in the universe for years. Closer to the Moon than to Earth, a new place has emerged: the planet called “Digital World”. Everything works there with the use of cell phones! Yes, whether you want to turn on the television, open the refrigerator or close the door at home, everything is within reach of a click (or two) in the palm of your hand.
However, the biggest problem was knowing how to get there. For scientists to get to know this wonderful place, it was necessary for the government to hire Jean, an experienced and courageous astronaut. When he stepped on solid ground, he didn't even need to pick up the ship's radio, one of the inhabitants lent his cell phone, and he promptly called Earth:
─ Wow! How much technology, I'm very impressed!
Jean? Are you calling from a cell phone? Spoke his boss puzzled.
─ Yes! Even Whatsapp is catching! I'll get to know everything better here, I'll film it to show me on my way back! A hug, boss!
The inhabitants of the new planet were surprised so much excitement about the use of cell phones, as they were used to making calls to various parts of their world. Jean explained that on Earth they have used cell phones for a long time, but never from such a great distance.
Jean's return was incredible. Journalists everywhere wanted to interview him and were really looking forward to seeing footage from a world so far away known as the Digital World. A radio reporter asked excitedly:
─ Will the Earth also have as much technology as there one day?
Jean smiled, unable to respond. He turned away and walked away leaving other reporters screaming and pleading to ask questions.
