Topic: 73
The use of computer is increasingly popular in modern society. Some people think that the computer makes life more convenient and easier because they can compile documents, buy goods through the Internet and do other works on the computer. Nevertheless, in my opinion, the computer makes life more complex and stressful. There are many instances supporting my opinion.

Before the computer was invented, people only need to learn the knowledge of mathematics, physics, chemistry and so on. However, today people have to learn how to operate the computer, to use a variety of software and if the computer does not work, people have to learn how to repair it. People have to learn not only the knowledge of software but also that of hardware. No ending learning makes people exhausted and their life more complex.

The computer also makes life more stressful. The society in which we live is called "information society& quot ;. Thanks for the development of the computer, the rhythm of life are increasingly rapid. The business men has so many meetings to attend, so many e-mails to deal with that they have no time to have his lunch. Some students have to work late on the computer to do the homework at night. There are more and more people struggling from the nervous sickness and
complaining the "busy life".

The rapid development of the computer makes people feel stressful, too. The new generation of the software and the hardware, the update of them, all of these make people have to pay more and more time and money on their computers.

Although the computer has become an indispensable part of our life, it can be concluded from the above statements that the computer makes life more complex and stressful.

Some people say that computers have made life more complex and stressful, but I totally disagree. In my opinion, computers have really made our lives easier and more convenient in communicating, getting informed and doing research work, if you have known how to work with a computer.

The e-mail service and Internet based on computer make us communicating with others much easily and conveniently. In the past, we have to write letters or meet in person in order to communicate with others. The mails seem to take forever to arrive and meeting in person means to put out a lot of efforts. Now, the e-mail lasts only a few seconds to send and to receive and we can always meet new people even foreigners in chat room whenever we set up our computers. It really makes our socializing easier.

The news on the Internet is being broadcasted 24 hours everyday and tailored to your specific interests. You can always connect your telephone and modem with a computer to read them. Listening to radio or watching television can be informed with what are happening around you conveniently too, but just on the computer can you easily read the specific news in which you are interested without having to buy newspapers. So, up to now, it is the most convenient way to read news at home.

Besides, it is very convenient and much easy to do research work with a computer turning on. You can save your work on computers too easily more than just typing a few letters, no matter what your work is, even audio or video data. You can also type a few keys to print them out neatly. Also, you can search whatever materials you want without the trouble of looking for books or magazines in libraries.

Some people think that computers have made life complex and stressful. They may not be very familiar with computers or do not know how to work with a computer efficiently. It does not matter. Only after a few weeks of training, they can probably easily enjoy the convenience of computers in socializing, reading news and doing research job.
