In response to Simon's complaints, you mentioned that using your mobile phone is important.

To make the meaning of the sentence stronger, we need to fill in the gap with one word. Let's read the sentence again:
"Oh well, that's different. Mobiles are important!
Meg: __(missing word)__"
Based on the context, we can assume that Meg is responding to Tanya's statement about the importance of mobile phones. Meg agrees with Tanya and wants to emphasize that mobile phones are indeed significant in our lives.
To strengthen the meaning of the sentence, we can add the word "absolutely" before Meg's response:
"Oh well, that's different. Mobiles are important!
Meg: __Absolutely__, the 5"
By adding "absolutely" before Meg's response, it highlights and reinforces the importance of mobile phones.
