Evidencia 2: Workshop “Products and services”

La lectura es una de las habilidades más utilizadas en el mundo, pero a la vez es la

menos motivante, dado que en ocasiones hay textos muy extensos y con vocabulario
complejo que dificulta su comprensión y le resta interés al texto; afortunadamente
existen nuevos métodos que facilitan obtener la información necesaria y con ello
aumentar el léxico personal.

En este orden de ideas y con la finalidad de cumplir con el propósito de esta evidencia,
consulte el material complementario denominado Integration of products and services.

Luego de esta consulta, resuelva el siguiente taller sobre comprensión lectora:

1. Find the main idea of paragraphs 1, 2, 9, 10, 11, and 12, and write them in a
paragraph.

1 paragraph:

In modernity technological and digital innovations are making important changes to

the world economy for example the cars are already being manufactured with a lot of
technology.

2 paragraph:

Currently products and services are very important because the product is important but
the service is the added value and in turn helps to grow employment

9 paragraph:

Technology and communications are making major changes in the economy and it is
necessary that new companies and those that are already established begin to use
technology in their daily work, in Europe 41% are classified as "non-digital" only on 2 %
are taking advantage of these opportunities.

10 paragraph:

The lack of use of new digital communications have caused Europe to lose productivity,
while in other regions they are taking advantage of this modernization to advance
service and product in areas that are highly competitive.
 11paragraph:
The cars currently have a great digital influence every time they have more processors
that turn them into mobile offices, they have also made technology companies become
an automotive company for example Tesla, automation have become key components
of the assembly line

12 paragraph:

It is expected that the cost of the electronic parts of the vehicles will increase from 20%
to 40% in the future. The new cars will have a greater technological participation that will
allow them to interact without problems and exchange data with the electronic devices of
the driver.

2. Write a summary of ten lines from the text.

The economy is having major changes thanks to the technological revolution that has
made the sea possible for technology companies to enter the automotive market imply
that products and services are influenced by new technologies, service is the added
value that is offers to the clients and / or consumers for this the companies have to
implement in their processes the use of digital tools since everything is handled by
digital means; if companies do not advance, they may risk losing the influence they have
gained; as what has happened in Europe that several of its companies are not entering
the digital world and other countries are taking advantage of this opportunity. Europe
has a great advantage for its quality and experience but it is necessary to create new
strategies so that its economy advances and reaches the highest point.

3. Choose a paragraph and translate it with your own words.

Technologies such as virtual reality have the potential to radically transform entire
industries through the remote discovery of products and services: the ability to ‘touch’
and ‘feel’ products in a virtual store from your living room may well disrupt the sector by
making price comparison easy, enabling 24-hour online shopping and compelling
companies to offer delivery services.

Las tecnologías virtuales tienen el potencial radical de transformar industria completa

descubriendo productos y servicios: la habilidad de tocar y sentir productos en una
tienda virtual desde la sala puede perturbar el sector al comprar por precios más fáciles
en línea las 24 horas y empresas eficientes para ofrecer el servicio de entrega.
