2   Listen to Samer Abu Kouta talking about his invention. What does his invention do?

Audioscript

Hello all. My name is Samer Abu Kouta. I am eighteen years old and I am a university student in Jordan. I am very interested in science and technology. I read about inventions and discoveries during my free time and try to invent something new. Recently, I worked on a new invention and I was surprised how many people thought it was very useful. I invented a computer system for online commercial transactions. It's a legal programme and I think it would be very helpful for people who work in business. Possible customers are business people who can't always meet with each other because they live or work in distant places. They are mostly buyers and sellers who want to make transactions without the need for being present for signing a contract between them. This computer system helps people save time, money and effort.

Answer:

His invention allows making commercial transactions online.
