Computers: A blessing or a curse? (Компьютеры: благословение или проклятие?)

There aren’t many people who don’t know how to use computers these days. Look in almost any home, classroom or office and you’ll probably spot a computer.

It is true that computers can save a lot of space and time. Firstly, computers help save a lot of paper and that’s good for the environment. Secondly, computers save space in your house because they can do the job of encyclopedias and other books. Lastly computers help us learn and allow us to stay in contact with people via e-mail.

On the other hand, the use of computers can lead to problems. To begin with, computers can be bad for your eyes, especially as some children may spend too much time playing computer games.

Moreover, computers don’t help children communicate with others. Instead, children spend their time indoors sitting in front of a computer screen.

To sum up, computers have their good points and their bad points. Whether the advantages outweigh the disadvantages really doesn’t matter as computers are definitely here to stay.
