FIFA uses new cameras and sensors. These tools make a digital copy of every player. A sensor inside the ball tracks the game 500 times every second. This helps referees see small mistakes.

FIFA使用了新的攝影機與感應器。這些工具能為每位球員建立數位副本。球內的感應器每秒追蹤比賽情況500次，幫助裁判發現微小錯誤。

⏱️ The 'Time' Pattern

In this text, we see how to describe limits and deadlines. This is very useful for A2 students to talk about their daily routine or work.

The Magic Word: "In" When we say how long someone has to finish something, we use in + number + time.

  • Example: "leave the field in 10 seconds"
  • Meaning: You have 10 seconds before you must go.

Common A2 Phrases using this pattern:

  • I will be ready in 5 minutes.
  • The bus arrives in 10 minutes.
  • Please finish the test in 30 minutes.

⚙️ Word Pairs: Tools & Actions

Look at how the text connects a thing (tool) to what it does (action). This is the easiest way to build sentences:

  • Cameras/Sensors →\rightarrow make a copy
  • Sensor →\rightarrow tracks the game
  • Head camera →\rightarrow lets fans see

Try this logic for your own life:

  • Phone →\rightarrow sends a message
  • Laptop →\rightarrow writes a report
